Do you love a stripe? Would you ever do the walls or prefer a more subtle stand alone piece like a rug or chair or a couple of cushions?

Reading Between the Lines
I absolutely love the boldness of a stripe! And what is even more fabulous about them? They are a classic so they stand the test of time. Think they're too bold for you? Try a few cushions, they look great against other prints as long as you marry them with others of a similar colour. More daring? Try covering your walls. Whoa Miss Walker! What about somewhere in between? Opt for a gorgeous piece of furniture. My all time favourite, a striped covered Louis!
