TIP
To get crisp paint edges on a masked off area or stencil- paint with the current wall color FIRST and let it dry a bit. This will fill most gaps leaving you with crispy new paint color edges. (Ignore the pencil mark)

You did a beautiful job. What kind of tape did you use to mask it off with ???
I use a white eraser to clean up scuffs & penciled reference marks.
The pink ones leave a mark.
Use white chalk-the old fashioned school kind to draw your lines. After the paint dries, easier to clean up!
Thank You π
