Guest Room Makeover with Modern, Organic Charm
Leyla Chong, from @livingwithley, elevates her room with DIY trim and a painted ceiling for a striking statement to transform her space.
Rebecca Propes, face of @rebeccadiy, turns a tiny space into a bold, color-drenched office, complete with crisp pinstripes and big personality.
Supplies Needed:
Prep the Space
Start by clearing the space and covering the floor with drop cloths or plastic sheeting. Next, wipe down the walls, ceiling and baseboards to remove dust and dirt for better adhesion.
Measure Out Tape Edges
Use the width of FrogTape Advanced™ Painter's Tape to make vertical stripes on your walls. To ensure straight lines, Rebecca used a level. Make sure to press the painter's tape firmly along the edges to prevent paint bleed.
Paint the Stripes
Due to having textured walls, Rebecca added a layer of the base color to ensure crisp paint lines. Then, she used a small roller to paint the main color over the base color to create the stripes.
Remove Tape
Peel the tape off carefully while the paint is still slightly wet for clean lines.
Finishing Touches
To complete this project, paint the bottom half of the wall a contrasting color, and color-drench the trim and baseboards. When finished, reinstall the baseboards and wall trim. When finished, reinstall the baseboards and wall trim. Rebecca used some FrogTape® Delicate Surface Painter’s Tape to hold the trim on the painted surface as she nailed it.
Then, admire your hard work and new decorative wall!
