This Primary School Library mural featuring an imaginative woodland fantasy scene with a book staircase that fires the imagination, was painted by hand, directly on to the walls. There are two quite different parts to this work, the 3D woodland walls and the silhouette rabbit warren where the bespoke shelves will sit in front.
This project was largely funded by sponsorship, including a local supermarket, and goodwill from local businesses. It just goes to show what can be achieved with a little energy and targeted fund raising.

This main feature of little girl walking up a staircase of books really stirs the imagination... School library mural with inspired youngster on a book staircase stairs in a fantastical woodland scene Woodland Mural helps to disguise some boxy areas and radiators. Mural painted in Lydeard St. Leonards Infants School Library Some fantasy swirls popping up everwhere These next two walls facing opposite were painted in a different style for speed, diversity, budget and because some bespoke bookshelves were to go in in front of them, (see the next picture)
...and with the shelves full of books! The idea was that the rabbit warren would be revealed here and there as holes appeared when books are borrowed. Don't you just love these curved corner shelves... The new library in action... Below shows where some of the funding came from, thanks Tesco, and so perhaps a supermarket could help you to fund your project... Get in touch to chat about your school's project.
