Craft your design on paper, trace it over on a transparency, and then blare it up on the wall. In fact, I do this for my kids all the time- for blowing up images for birthday parties, rooms, etc... Also, I purchase simple stencils stamps and paint walls using them, repeated in randomized, creative ways. - My kids have strange circular stencils, and stamps from a hexagonal craft box with the center cut out, I created what looks like a pile of hex bolts at 6" in size,, very industrial!
