Calling All Clowns

(This clown/ballerina is on top of a cvs in Santa Monica on Main Street. So trippy to see at first and definitely interesting.)

I love stripes done right. I realize that this CAN be a difficult challenge though. If one has too many stripes within a room or if they clash with other decor OR if they are not the right colors, it can look like a circus. But when done right, it really spruces up a room!


I love the pink stripes mix with the yellow, red, lavender and light blue: so pretty!

This looks lovely with the light blue walls.

I like the monochromatic use of stripes. What a beautiful and bright porch.

Or maybe just some striped Accessories:

Or on some flat ware.

Stripes are FUN!
