To establish a vibrant look of Morocco in Julie Weisenberger's daughters bedroom, the Fresh Coat team starts with the walls, glazing them a soft creamy yellow for a sun-washed look that also helps blend the angles of the room.They add interest with big handmade stencils created by tracing their chandelier, applying the stencils in deep eggplant and repeating the look around the room. This makes the room feel bigger and adds curvy details to this sharply angled space.
