Mom Paints Mural Inspired by 'Tangled' on 8-Year-Old Daughter's Wall
Jennifer Treece said she loves fairy tales.
— -- One fairy tale-loving mom couldn't resist painting a mural inspired by the Disney film "Tangled" on her 8-year-old daughter's wall.
"I just love fairy tales," Jennifer Treece, of Lavonia, Michigan, told ABC News. "I love the movies so much; the music and the artistry and the beauty of them."
Treece was inspired to paint the 2010 film, centered on the classic story of Rapunzel, because she heavily identified with the long-haired princess, who's locked away in a tower alone.
Treece, 39, added: "We're both artists and she's always painting all over her walls and I'm always painting all over my walls. I identify with the feeling that she knows she's meant for more."
The mother said she spent 60 hours creating her daughter Gianna's mural. Initially, she painted the background -- a dark blue castle. Then painted all of the details, including a boat with Princess Rapunzel and her prince inside.
Treece said that's not the only mural in her home. She's also painted trees in her bedroom, a mural inspired by Cinderella and even a quote by Disney creator Walt Disney that reads, "If you can dream it, you can do it."
Disney is the parent company of ABC News.
