I found this lime green and orange nursery picture and wondered if anybody could recommend paint colors that would get this look. Is the striped wall painting technique worth doing or would the room look just as nice with solid orange above the lime green on the lower part of the walls?
It's not that I don't want to take the time to learn how to paint stripes on the wall. It's just that I don't know if my skills are sufficient to handle painting them like the ones in the lime green and orange nursery picture. I'm afraid that I can't make the edges of the stripes come out as neat as I would like for them to be.
I'm not being critical but I saw a wall in person that was similar and the stripes were messy. They were even enough, but when the tape was removed it did something to the paint.
Unique Baby Gear Ideas hopes that someone can help Styna overcome her fears of painting her nursery walls that the ones in the nursery picture above.
