I need to post that next! What is really cool is that Home Depot donated a rental of 5 cordless drills with chargers. SO totally cool!! The students drilled and drilled and drilled!!! I am still drilling. Home Depot also donated the screws. We think we used over 3,000 screws and caps for this mural! I recommend screwing down the caps because the glued down caps tempt students too much to pick them off. We don't want that happening!! Home Depot also donated the particle board and the hardware to mount the mural. We are putting in drywall anchors and screws. The anchors hold 50 pounds each - so we are putting three into each board to make sure. I will be posting the next step real soon so you can see more photos!

Totally borrowing this idea for next year! A few questions:<br /><br />You're only gluing them to the boards, right? They're light enough where they won't fall off, I'd think.<br /><br />Also, how are you hanging the individual boards on the wall?<br /><br />My school has been asking about large/temporary murals for some of the more barren hallways. We've got about a gazillion bottle caps left over from our mural this year. Your mural seem to fit the bill for what my school is looking for!Painting With Brainshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01173690702611747238noreply@blogger.com
