I think it came out pretty good. Still a few little things I need to do.

The reason I did not paint all the way to the ceiling is because crown molding is going to be added. Baseboards will be replaced and hardwood floors will follow.

Thanks man. Very much appreciated. I’ve added a light and also shorted the half wall that divides the kitchen and dining room since this picture.

The stripes were only done on this one wall. The grey was done on the remaining walls.

Very nice. Aaron and I were just discussing doing wainscoting in our dining room. Looks great with the striped accent wall.

The third wainscot panel from the left is 1/4" narrower than the rest. What happened?

Here is a before and after of the dining room bay window. I like it a lot better than before.

for some reason when I see those stripes and the wainscoting it makes me think of 1980s power suits.

Thanks for the pictures of the bay window. Mine looks similar and after seeing how nice yours came out, I think painting mine was just added to the list.

Do you have a picture of the Dining room that shows the striped wall and a non-striped wall? I’m interested to see how it looks.
