How did you decide the placement and widths for the stripes?

I LOVE this look and am considering doing something similar in my daughter's room, but am concerned my stripes won't look right. Is there a template or guideline you used for figuring out the stripes?

    This is beautiful and fun! My advise on stripes is to NOT be uniform and have fun with color and dimensions. You do have to keep them absolutely straight! This is why I recommend the free-form idea because if you make a mistake you won't pay for it later in the pattern.
    Also, think about colors! Have if bright - stay bright! The pastel purple sits as a foundation and the lines pop but compliment each other.
    By the way, LOVE the circles in this as well. Very unique!

      Love these stripes! I especially love that they left a lot of blank wall between them. It keeps the room from looking like a circus tent. I would do the same as they did here. As far as a guideline, I would usually center the stripe around a focal point - furniture, window, etc. But in this pic, they really just went free form and it's very effective. I say go for it - leave some blank spaces and make the stripes various widths & colors. Have fun!

      thank you PH! Eohm, I really didn't have a plan, or template. Reason? Stripes are a pain, measuring, preciseness, etc etc - it is much easier to just be random, and create your own design. This room was so large that I did just that, did NOT measure ahead of time, instead worked with rotating the colors I had, and varied the widths of the stripes as I went along. Then when that was done, it gave me an open canvas to introduce the random pops of stenciled color. Good luck! Patty
