I was tagged to post about my 6th picture in my 6th file....
When we moved in to our home here in Vegas, all the rooms were painted. Some we liked. Some we didn't. The room that would be Eli's was painted a sage green color. While, not a terrible color, I didn't like it much. Besides the crib bedding we had for him was green as well. that was just TOO much green.
This picture is mid painting Eli's room. It was a couple of months after we moved in. I was kinda into watching Top Deisgn at the time & I wanted to try something other then a solid color. I decided stripes would be fun! It was a crazy job to tackle. I would recommend investigating it thouroughly on a DIY website & buy all the propper tools recommended!! I didn't. & started the job anyway! I think I ended up taping a ruler {a whole 12 inches} to a level, and making stripes that way. little by very little. It wasn't fun. About 20 min. into the project I was thinking.....I need to stop watching Top Design...It took me about 3 days. But now at least I can say I did it all by myself! Here is the before & after.

Wow, you did an awesome job! I am lacking the creativity to choose and paint colors like that. But I love it. I bet that was a ton of work.
