Painting stripes on a wall sounds like no big deal — until you attempt it. Afterwards, even wearing striped shirts seems like a blasphemous suggestion. Reader Bill Schuller put this striped room together with a laser level and more patience than I’d ever have.
He scored the laser level after seeing a Dealmonger for it and deciding now was the time to act. A few dozen paint lines and several kicked-over paint cans later, and he’d completed a badass designer baby room for the discerning pharaoh on the go. We especially dig the mark of “bored baby” that Bill points out behind the crib — fine work to both Bill and Luka.

One trick to getting the stripes to look good is to use paint tape along the laser level line. Then u use the background wall color and a mini roller and paint over the tape. When this dries if forms a seal so when you paint the stripe it does not seep under the tape and form a messy line.
