I've always loved the unique look of paint by number, and seeing it on these wall murals makes me fall in love all over again! I recently saw this post from Nicole who writes the blog

Here's a sea themed one from the cute blog:

I'm extremely tempted to do this on a wall in my house, but I'm a renter and wonder if I should invest all the time in something I can't take with me for a few years! I love the look though, and as soon as I can do it - I am! Have a great day :)

Deleteah a drop cloth, great idea!
