Decorating with Stripes


Stripes promote order in an interior and can really make a statement. They are low-risk and easy to incorporate in type of room, whether it be traditional or modern.

RealSimple.com suggests three guidlines for decorating with stripes:

1- Use high-contrast stripes in unexpected places. Great places for these are in powder bathrooms or foyers (somewhere where people don't linger too long).

2- Match the size of the stripe to the size of the room. The larger the space the wider the stripes should be.

3- Blend striped, floral and solid accessories.
