Striped Closet Makeover
Jewel Marlowe, from Jeweled Interiors, drew inspiration from the 2022 FrogTape Design Trend "Rise" to breathe new life into a basic closet with colorful paint and bold stripes. Nubby baskets and vintage art help add sophistication to the youthful color scheme.
Supplies Needed
- Delicate Surface FrogTape® Painter's Tape
- Paint (3 colors)
- Paint roller
- 2 in. brush
- Level
- Sand paper
- Pencil
Step 1
To get started, Jewel recommends to use the lightest paint color as your base and paint the entire area.
Step 2
Then, use a level and a pencil to trace out straight lines. Label each stripe to make the paint pattern easy to remember, except the base stripe. Tip: use your level as the width of your stripes!
Step 3
Use FrogTape® Delicate Surface Painter's Tape to block out and protect the base color strips, since you won't be painting those. Also, tape off the first stripe that you want to paint.
Step 4
Paint the first stripe and let the paint dry to the touch.
Step 5
Using FrogTape Delicate Surface, tape around the second stripe, paint and repeat!
Step 6
Finally, remove all the tape, style and enjoy!
