In love with: striped walls

 

I’ve been seeing so many pictures of striped walls recently and I honestly can’t get enough of them. I’ve never actually seen a striped wall in a home, so all of these pictures have opened my eyes to a very new (well to me) way to spice things up a bit. Do you remember this photo that I posted a few weeks ago? Now that is a great striped wall.

I have to admit that I’m more partial to the lighter colors for the stripes (as you’ll see in these pictures) but if you’re going for a more dramatic look don’t be afraid to go bolder with your colored stripes.

As you’ll see, there are so many different ways to play with the striped wall concept. The above photo features a wider stripe used in a hallway, while the photo below shows a more narrow stripe used in a dining room. Just for the record, I love both.

 

Now this obviously requires a bit more work, but how amazing are the striped tiles in this bathroom? I’m in love.

 

While I was searching for photos to share with you I stumbled upon this fantastic DIY for painting stripes from Emily A. Clark. Below is the wall that she painted in her home, which looks so great! Check out her tutorial here, and let me know if you try it out!

 

Are you loving the striped wall as much as I am? Or are they too much for you?
