I am constantly inspired by design ideas and have lately been stretching my comfort zone to try new ways to express those inspirations into my own home. A room can completely be transformed through paint. Whether it's a whole new paint color on all of the walls or a special treatment to one wall section... paint can change a room's vibe and overall style. I have always loved designer Kelly Wearstler's unique take on design and the way she can effortlessly push the envelope. Take for example, her iconic foyer with those gorgeous coral walls...

How cool is that picture?!? And then my jaw dropped again when I saw a similar style, but on drapery panels...
And I am in awe of this modern hand painted look also seen on Kristin's living room wall from the blog, The Hunted Interior...
I knew I had to apply it in some way in my own home. And if I got it totally wrong, it's just paint, right? There's really no tutorial for this project. Just some leftover white paint, a two inch paint brush and your creativity. I would paint a couple of brush strokes and then step back to make sure it was coming along how I planned. That's all there is to it! And my husband really likes it, too. He walked in and said, "wow, I really like it!" Win win for me! It was also a great validation for me that I didn't just do something completely crazy. :)
