How did you keep the tape from causing the already-painted parts of the wall to peel up when you took it off? I love this!

I'm in the process of striping an accent wall in my baby girl Clara's room...then I realized that you also have a baby girl named Clara. Love the house and the name! Thanks for the instructions on how to measure. Love the stripes! I’m in the process of striping an accent wall in my baby girl Clara’s room…then I realized that you also have a baby girl named Clara.

My husband and I have purchased a 1950s ranch style home and I have been trying to figure out our tiny bathroom for over a year. It has honey oak trim and window sills. Do you think the same color scheme would look good? Thanks for the inspiration I Love this!

Of course towels and rugs and other accessories (the shower curtain) can add color too! xo, s

Things feel airier and more open if they relate and sort of blend into each other whether it's an open plan or a home made up of small rooms. Hope it helps! xo, s

I'm so glad he did! Our new home is a cute, little red-brick Cape Cod. It is just a little thing, but perfect for us. I just went to Home Depot last night and picked out paint swatches. Then I found your blog and feel the need to rethink my choices. A couple questions: you talk about keeping colors flowing to make a small house look more open. Our house isn't really an open floor plan to begin with, so can I still use bright colors in small doses without making the house look even smaller? For example, a bright blue accent wall in the living room? Or yellow in the bathroom with creams and tans in the surrounding rooms? And speaking of yellow in the bathroom, how can this striping technique be used (safely) with brights? I will be a frequent visitor to your blog in the future!
