Smashing in Stripes!

I have 2 stripy walls to paint. One Black and Teal, and one Black and a sort of Hyacinth purple. First the Black and Teal. This is in the front room.

 

First I taped all the edges

 

 

Then I started with the Teal, so if I screw up up the black will cover. I am leaving white in between for extra contrast. The trim in this room will be white. I am using a 3 inch roller and lots of patience!

 

I am painting over some rough wood paneling that has been white since the beginning of time. The white space between each stripe is indented. My daughter Angelina was helping me so I wouldn't hurt my arm again. We have discovered that painting walls is not her forte. I told her to please not be offended, but not to touch the black paint at all.

 

Teal is done, now for the black. Here it goes!

 

The more I do, the better it looks!

I Love it!
