Flamingo Bird of Paradise Coastal Glass Print by Echoes

Creating the Flamingo Bird of Paradise Coastal Glass Print

For Lisa Reid, the flamingo is a spirit animal—an icon of playful elegance and timeless beauty. She started with a delicate pencil sketch, focusing on the bird’s graceful S‑curve neck and gentle head tilt. Instead of showing its legs, she nestled the flamingo amid lush botanical foliage—tropical Bird of Paradise blooms, hibiscus petals, and palm fronds—to evoke antique pink flamingo prints and classic Audubon illustrations.

In her digital studio, Lisa layered vibrant vector linework over scanned textures, bringing each blush‑pink feather and glossy beak highlight to life. She dialed up the contrast so the flamingo gleams against a moody backdrop, then wove in sepia‑toned accents and subtle vintage grain to nod to antique natural history plates.

The result is a harmonious blend of past and present: a tropical tableau that feels both richly historical and refreshingly modern. Printed on premium glass, this piece invites you to experience the flamingo’s dignified poise and the lush splendor of coastal flora—right in your own home.

Installation Guide for Your Echoes of the Sea Coastal Glass Prints


Thank you for choosing Echoes of the Sea, the #1 ranked brand for coastal glass prints! Each of our eco-friendly, Made-in-USA prints—like the vibrant Nautilus & Coral or Serene Turtle—comes with a Wall-Dog™ mounting screw and mounting tape for flexible installation.

Follow these simple steps to display your nautical glass art securely. We offer two methods: screw mounting (ideal for most walls, including masonry and concrete) or tape mounting (great for smooth, non-textured surfaces).

Preparation: Unboxing Your Print

1. Carefully unbox your coastal glass print.
2. Locate the cutout notch next to the word "LIFT" on the foam mount.
3. Gently pry up the glass edge using the notch to release the print from the packing board. Avoid forcing it to prevent damage.

Method 1: Screw Mounting (Recommended for Secure, Permanent Hang)
This method uses the included Wall-Dog™ screw, which installs directly into wallboard, masonry, concrete, brick, or plaster—no anchor needed for most surfaces.

1. Turn the print over to reveal the keyhole carved into the foamcore backing (large and extra-large prints include a metal insert for added reinforcement).
2. Choose your wall spot and gather tools: a Phillips screwdriver (#2). For concrete, masonry, brick, or plaster, pre-drill a hole using a 3/16-inch ANSI masonry bit.
3. Screw the Wall-Dog™ into the wall until it's almost completely flush—the head should protrude just enough (about 1/8 inch) to catch the keyhole.
4. Align the keyhole on the back of the print over the screw head.
5. Gently lower the print until it's seated flush against the wall. The weight will naturally settle the foamcore onto the screw head—do not pull downward forcefully to avoid damaging the backing.

Your oceanic glass print is now securely mounted, ready to add calming coastal wall decor to your space!

Method 2: Tape Mounting (Quick & Removable for Smooth Walls)
Use the included tape for easy, no-tools installation. Do NOT use on wallpaper, freshly painted walls (wait at least 7 days after painting), or textured surfaces without sufficient flat areas for adhesion, as it may not hold properly.

1. Clean the wall where you'll hang the print using isopropyl alcohol (not household cleaners). Let it dry completely for 2-3 minutes.
2. Turn the print over. For small and medium prints: Position the single piece of tape directly beneath the keyhole. For large and extra-large prints: Position the two pieces of tape on either side of the keyhole.
3. Remove the white liner from one side of the tape(s) and firmly press the adhesive side down onto the backing using the palm of your hand (avoid fingertips to prevent cracking the glass).
4. Remove the remaining white liner(s) from the tape. Align and press the print onto the wall—don't worry if it's not level; the tape can be repositioned a couple of times without losing strength.
5. Using the palm of your hand, press firmly on the glass surface directly over the tape area(s) for 30 seconds each. For prints with two tapes, press both spots to ensure secure adhesion.

Enjoy your seaside glass print's vibrant glow—it's now perfectly placed for beach-inspired elegance!
