How long will it take?:
You’ll not only be done before you know it, but it should only take about a weekend.

Do I have to prep the wall before starting?
For best results the wall should be clean, and dust and dirt-free.

What type of paint should I use for the background -- matte, semi-gloss or what?:
It’s best to use a satin, semi-gloss, or eggshell finish. This way smudges from the transfer paper can be removed with a damp cloth. 

Can I paint it on any color of wall?
Most murals will do best on a white, or off-white, or very pale color. The only exception is the Carousel of Critters. This should be on a little darker color so the white animals will show up. Try a light cream, light blue, or light sage green.

Can I reverse the patterns so the design faces the opposite direction?
Yes. Simply place the pattern on top of the transfer paper with the transfer material facing the back of the pattern. Trace design, and flip over the pattern. Your design will now have the design on the back in reverse. Proceed with normal directions.
