- Masking tape
- Pencil

Step 1: Choose your base
First make sure you’re happy with the background colour of your wall. If it needs a fresh colour, now’s the time to do it. Not sure which shade to go with?
Step 2: Draw an oval
Lightly use your pencil to draw an oval shape on your sheet of paper and then cut out the shape.
Step 3: Tape the oval to the wall
Use small pieces of masking tape to tack the oval into the desired position on the wall.
Step 5: Apply your paint
Use your paintbrush to apply paint around the inner edge of your oval, before using your paint roller to fill in the rest of the oval. You have your finished oval.
