How to Painted Scallop Details

Gahh! I LOVE this piece.
Right?

It's. Just. So. Perfect.

I got so many questions when I posted this project on
instagram...

I had no idea that I was using such a secret method...

I thought everybody knew this trick.

...it's scalloped painters tape.

And it's pretty much dummy proof.

If you don't have a good eye use a level when taping.

I also use a putty knife after I apply the tape. I gentle run the putty knife over the tape to make sure ever bit is sticking to the furniture.

(this is a putty knife in ase you're really behind in the DIY department)

So, what will you scallop?
