Painted Wall Stripes In The Bedroom & Bathroom: a house log

When Jamie sent us photos of her stunningly posh striped walls (inspired by our bathroom painting project) we had to share the remarkable transformation. Here is her letter:

Simply hoped to tell you “THANK YOU” and give you a big cyber-hug for inspiring me to get off my duff and add some “oomph” to my house. After seeing your altogether fabulous bathroom stripes, I have gone stripe-wild in my own house and it is made all the difference. I did stripes in my bathroom – much like yours – then kept the enjoy going by adding them to my master bedroom as well. Talk about textural eye candy! I simply enjoy them, and I enjoy you for all of your fabulous ideas, your prompt responses to emails and comments, and the free advice you so generously bestow on your faithful readers. I am doing my utmost to return the enjoy by giving you shout outs on my journal as much as possible. I have got a large portion of the Salt Lake valley following your every move so I think I am doing a good job. Let us be honest, what is not to enjoy? In short: I am fairly freaking exciting about my stripes!!! Enjoy you both! -Jamie

Here is the already lovely bedroom before Operation Stripe Glad:

And here it is after Jamie’s mission was accomplished…

… and her bathroom walls got in on the lively.

Are not these chic stripes vivid in both the bathroom and the feature wall behind the bed? Enjoy. Enjoy. Enjoy. Thanks so much for sending the remarkable photos our way Jamie! What do you folks think? Is not it remarkable what a gallon of paint a little painters tape can do? Gotta enjoy how low-cost this project is- and how much bang you get for your buck.
