Stripes on a textured wall would look as endearing as modern piece of art. Your textured wall will smarten up with stripes on them and contribute towards an astonishing ambiance. Stripes, vertical as well as horizontal, play differently with the ambiance.
If textured walls are known to add oodles of elegance to the room, painted stripes on them further contribute to their grace.
Just grab a can of paint, couple of relevant brushes and lots of imagination to create a wall of your dreams:
Horizontal stripes
Complement the décor of your room by painting horizontal stripes over textured walls. They would decorate them artily, especially if in contrasting colors. In fact, they would render a wall-paper effect without actually spending money on them. They can be matched with the background color or the tone of the wall’s texture to make a striking impact. Paint only one, or at most two, horizontal stripes on the textured walls lest the room will look cluttered.
Vertical stripes
Unlike horizontal stripes, multiple vertical stripes can be painted on a textured wall. They impart an interesting visual appeal to the wall and make its ceiling appear higher than its actual height. Coordinated colors of vertical stripes will create a thematic ambiance that can be completed with other matching trimmings that may or may not be upright. Paint them in corresponding color so that the magnificence of the textured walls gets enhanced.
Glossy stripes
Textured walls can be made even more attractive with the help of glossy stripes painted on them. They would look a perfect piece-of-art when painted on single textured wall, standing-in as the focal point of the room. The glossy stripes in complementing color tones would be muted yet impactful on ambiance unlike vertical stripes in bold colors that tend to get too direct on the décor. Their subtle sheen would highlight the textured wall even further.
Replicated stripes
If painting of perfect and straight stripes seems a tough a job, opt for vinyl stripe-stickers that come in abundant colors and dimensions. They can be easily pasted over the textured wall to accentuate the décor and add a dash of glamour to the ambiance.
