Stripes

I've been thinking of doing stripes like these:

(added them digitally to an old photo)


to complement the art over here:

What do you think? (ugh..I'm really not liking the print on those chairs at all anymore.)

I also thought of doing the green stripes in a more organic form with leaves or swirls like these,

I wouldn't do it exactly like it's pictured, but you get the idea. It seems like a lot more work and I don't want it to look too busy, so I probably will not go this route unless I get the stripes up and they look boring.

Speaking of bored, Miss Thang and I are always looking for videos on YouTube to share with each other and somehow I came across this one boring evening. I don't know which is funnier, the fake lyrics or the guy in the video. It's a little racy for children, plus the woman's voice is terrible, so I'd listen to this while you are alone so no one thinks you're a freak. There, now that I've made it sound swell, check it out!

Ps. Where can I find good quality, heavy fake tulips? I'm thinking I need to look at Michaels, but I fear that they will be $6 each and I'll end up embarrassing myself and buying them one at a time over a week with their 50% off coupons. lol

  1. Hi, hi! I love the idea of the stripes (with the darker green, not the close to lime green green. Were you going to put the art above the stripes, or have the stripes centered behind the art? The swirly leaves plant add on is really pretty (with the darker green.. imo) :) Sorry for my two sense.. Good luck deciding though!

    Love Benny Lava (saw it a few years ago, it's crazy!)

  2. I think I will put the stripes centered behind the clock, although I did consider using the viney(?) stripe and putting the white flower plaque things up oh it like flowers on a vine but I don't know. I like the darker green too but I have some green paint on hand and more than likely I will just use that and I have no idea if it's darker or neon lol
