We moved to a new house and in an attempt to be the coolest mom ever, I hired someone to graffiti my then 10 year old sons room. He knew we were painting but he had no idea about the graffiti; he came home from school one day and it was done. The letters are his initials.

Before: The room belonged to a little girl, sorry it's a bit blurry...

After we got the primer on...

After we got the gray paint on (sorry, can't remember the name)

That's the graffiti artist "Tuna" posing. If you're in the Toronto area and are interested in this type of custom artwork, check out "cre8cure" (http://cre8cure.tumblr.com/)

I have to admit the website isn't fantastic but as you can see, they do some pretty cool stuff.

I'm not affiliated in any way, I stumbled on these guys at a summer festival called "Kempenfest" and pretty much hired them on the spot.

You're looking at a cost of about $1,000 (that included everything from design, paint, labour and travel). Not bad for almost 5 hours of custom work I thought!

So? Am I a cool mom or what!
