DESIGN IDEA: STENCIL A WHITE WOOD FLOOR!


Can't tell if this is too shabby chic for my taste or it is just interesting and eclectic enough to try out in a small space. I'm kind of liking the idea of stenciling a random mix of graphic patterns onto a white painted wood floor. This small dining room is cute. I always love an interesting graphic pattern rug...so why not just stencil a few patterns right onto the floor?

What do you think?  Do you love? Do you "dis-love"?  What might you do differently?

Happy Wednesday!  Hope you have a good one.

I think I would like a more consistant pattern, love the idea though!

Great floor! I can see getting rid of the bohemian vibe and using a nice sparce mix of mid-century sophistication and Louis XVI.Keep the the artwork minimal and let that floor speak for itself!

Uh.

No. Thank you, no.

Agree with Karena... if it was a more consistent pattern, maybe. Perhaps a herringbone? Zig-zag?

Need more of a pattern, softer tones, great idea ! Would be fun to do this to a kids room and put in areas with words.. like play or rest.. very cute !!!

I honestly couldn't get past that marionette and now I'm a little freaked out.

The floor is too distressed for me. I like the mismatched chairs though!

It's all a bit ADHD for me! Would drive me crazy. But, yes, stenciled floors can look great.
