I love the idea of painted columns at the corner of a dining room. The technique is something that I’ve never seen before and manages to be both whimsical and stately at the same time. According to the how-to guide from Martha Stewart (who else?), all you’ll need is paint, card stock to make the stencil, and a steady hand. What do you think, dear readers? Are stenciled wall columns a DIY definitely worth trying or a potential decorating disaster? –Katie D.
