My walls are textured with an "antique lace" finish (or that's what my husband claims at least!) so I had to do a few extra steps to ensure clean lines.
1. Paint your base color and mark/measure stripes. I did 8 inchers
2. This not your typical blue tape! It's the 3m brand for delicate surfaces... trust me, this matter!!
3. When your stripes are masked, Ho over the lines that you will fill in with the base color.. Again! This forms a little seal so color won't bleed. I did this twice! See why it took so long?!
4. Lastly, I gave the stripes 2 coats of color, in my case black!
This technique involved a bit more than i thought, but totally paid off: my lines are crisp, clean and i love, love, love the end result!!!!
What do you think??
