How do I paint my ceiling zebra striped?
I painted my power room with zebra stripes and here is how I did it. I took a very large sea sponge and cut deep wedges leaving high spots with cuticle scissors. It helps to look at a zebra pattern of some sort, I used a zebra print rug to replicate the stripes. Then I dampened the sponge and put black acrylic paint on a plastic plate, dipped the sponge in it, off loaded some of the paint on to newsprint and to check the pattern and applied it to the wall. I found working in small sections, like 3 x 3 foot and changing the direction of the sponge worked best. I strongly recommend trying it out on a piece of poster board first until you get the pattern you like. Be sure to stamp the sponge without sliding it on the surface for the best image.
