How Do You Paint Freehand Wall Stripes?
Decorating with freehand wall stripes can make the most mundane wall interesting. This painting technique works with any decor because you can modify your stripes to be traditional, modern or anything in-between. Although the method is meant to be freeform, you still want a professional look, so round up your supplies. Start with a clean wall, preferably with a matte finish. A matte finish makes glossy stripes stand out more. However, you can achieve satisfactory results with another another finish if you don’t want to repaint the whole wall. Choose a paintbrush that is the same width as your stripes. Splurge on a thicker brush. It holds more paint, promoting a continuous look to your stripes. Get creative and design the look you want. Consider using multiple colors. You can paint big, bold stripes or double pin stripes, straight or wavy lines. You can even interrupt your stripes at intervals and incorporate a design using shapes, flowers or other images. Practice on a practice board,
