That is amazing. And while nursing a sore shoulder-wow! I love it. How long did you have to wait to mask the opposite stripes? I'm getting ready to paint a bathroom with horizontal stripes and thought I'd have to wait a couple of weeks to add the stripes or the tape would damage the base color of the paint.
