Wall update
How do I paint or stencil slanted stripes on a wall. I saw a post about this and cannot find it. It mentioned something about continuing onto another wall. Does that mean all 4 walls?

I wouldn't do all 4 walls. Do 1 or 2 adjoining walls. Measure from the wall corner to start of 1st stripe, make a mark with pencil at ceiling, then continue along ceiling marking for width of stripe and subsequent stripes. You will need to make marks at the corner of the wall and base boards to get your angle. I would use a chalk line to mark location of stripe edges. This will give you a visual to ensure it is what you want. Then use painter's tape along the stripe edges even with the chalk line. After applying tape, wash off the chalk. Paint the stripe with your contracting paint. A small roller will work quickly.
I would NOT paint stripes on 4 walls that would make me dizzy!

Hi Debbie. I would not paint stripes on all four walls. I think you would make more of an impact by painting stripes on a feature wall. Good luck Debbie.
