GIRLY MURALS AT DEEP ELLUM, DALLAS TO SEE
I recently visited downtown Dallas for the first time. One of my highlights was wandering the streets and looking for all the murals at Deep Ellum. Naturally, the girly, or better still, pink ones were my favourites!
If you’re going to be in the area, why not stop and check them out. Below are photos of the prettiest, girly ones I found.

History of the Project
Hundreds of North Texan artists put forward proposals for the murals. Out of these, 42 were chosen to be painted on the streets of Deep Ellum. This was dramatic, but a creative idea to transform and rejuvenate the area.
I’m pretty sure there are more than 42 murals now so I guess the project has been added to. The transformation has made Deep Ellum a must visit and so Instagram worthy!
The majority of the murals can be found between Commerce Street and Elm Street, Dallas, Texas. I’ve highlighted where I walked on the map. All the murals are on the sidestreets so keep your eyes peeled! Why not see how many you can count?
Favourite, Girly Murals at Deep Ellum
People
The left / middle images above are one mural over a huge wall! The last image is a tribute to healthcare workers throughout the Covid-19 pandemic.
Nature
Painted on two metal sheets, this Japanese looking tree scene is so beautiful! I also loved the kissing fish and the flower tower (the photo really doesn’t do that one justice!) The bright blue floral is also very pretty.
Pink
My favourite murals were these lovely pink ones! Located in the car park of the store Flea Style. When I came back to this spot a couple of times to take photos for my Instagram the car park was closed. The store was also undergoing renovations so that might be why!
Motivational Quotes
There are quite a few motivational quotes around the walls of Deep Ellum. These are two of my favourites.
Love
This one is so sweet and perfect to photograph and send to someone special!
Elephants
Located at the top right corner of the route on my map. This mural is quite far away from most of the others but it’s definitely worth the walk. This mural is huge, the Elephants are larger than life!
Thank you for reading my post about the pretty murals at Deep Ellum. I hope it has inspired you to go hunting for your own favourites!
