Reader DIY: Another HappyTape Entry

Do you remember this post, were I used colorful masking tape to make a pattern on the walls of my rental's entry?


Eileen tried this too, but with the peacock blue color. I love the results!

    Still trying to figure out a way to incorporate this in my house. Love the blue tape! And, she styled her table perfectly.

    Hi! I've been following your blog all the way from Honduras, Central America for some time now. I am completely and utterly ENAMORED with the work you do! I'm looking into maybe working this technique into my home décor, but am wondering (roughly) how many rolls of tape you used for this project. If you could give me an estimate as to how many rolls of tape to buy per square foot I'd really appreciate it! In the meantime, keep doing great things that inspire us all! Saludos from Honduras!

    I am wondering if the fabric you used for your console table (the ikat) came from L&S? I love that fabric, but don't see that colorway on the L&S website.
