Don't you feel like you don't even need any art on the walls now? <br /><br />I've painted stripes, but I swear by frog tape :) <br /><br />I have two tips to add, but they're pretty specific to my situation. I was painting vertical stripes. I just started in the least visible corner and did 9 inch stripes. I avoided the math needed for horizontal stripes (your step 2) because the stripe that was a little off in the corner didn't matter, no one really looks there!<br /><br />The second tip is to use a laser level when putting on the tape, just makes it a little easier. <br /><br />Here's the link: http://newcombhome.blogspot.com/2011/02/earn-my-stripes.html<br /><br />Wow - sorry how this is the longest comment ever!
