For a while now, something has been bothering me about the stenciled walls in my music room. I love the design, so don’t worry. I’m not about to paint over them and start over. But the design just seemed a bit…flat. So after trying several ideas to enhance the design, I found the answer…a chisel edge Sharpie marker. I used the Sharpie to outline parts of the design, and it just made it come to life. Not only did it add some depth and interest to the design, but it also looks fantastic with my black doors.
Sadly, the impact of the detail gets a little lost on small pictures (the impact on the full sized, in-person view is quite amazing, in my humble opinion), but I’m going to try to show you anyway.
Here’s how the stencil looked before with just the two colors (Behr Polar Bear and Benjamin Moore Classic Gray).
And here’s how it looks with a little black added…
I know some of you will much prefer the subtle look of the original stencil, but subtle really isn’t my thing. 🙂 The black just sets off the design perfectly in my eye.
Here’s a small section by the bookcase where you can see the black detail compared to the “before” stencil…
And here’s another section by the light switch…
Do you see how it adds not only some black (and every room needs a bit of black, right?), but also gives the design some dimension and depth? I wasn’t necessarily going for a “shadow” look. I just wanted to outline some areas to give it depth, so I outlined the top and the left parts of the white design. I kept repeating that over and over in my mind as I worked so that I wouldn’t get confused. “The top and the left of the white. The top and the left of the white.” 😀
And here’s the middle three rows finished. If you click on this picture, you can see a larger image with more detail…
When I texted my mom a picture of it to get her opinion, she said, “I love it! It’s gonna be a lot of work though.”
I figured it would take many, many hours…days, even…to get it finished, so for the first two days, I would just do a few minutes at a time. Each time I walked through the music room, I’d pick up a Sharpie and work on the wall for just a few minutes. I figured if I chipped away at it five minutes at a time, then in a couple of weeks I might have it done.
Then last night after dinner, I decided that I just wanted to go in there and work on that one wall until it was finished. I had three-and-a-half rows to go, and I was expecting it to take quite a while.
Those three-and-a-half rows took me 38 minutes. That’s it. That means that entire wall would have taken about 95 minutes. That’s not even the length of an average movie.
So one wall is done, and I have another wall plus some small bits around the cased openings to go. It’s one of those little things that has a big impact on a room. Here’s another pic that you can click on to get a larger view…
And finally, here’s a picture I took this morning with the early morning sunlight. You can see how awesome the stencil now looks with the black doors. You can click on this picture to see a large image.
On another note, thank you all so much for all of your input on my fireplace yesterday! I’ve only gotten through just over half of the 400-ish comments, but as I’ve been reading them, a plan has been developing in my mind.
I don’t think I’ll be going with the most popular suggestion (a lighter gray with purplish undertones). Instead, I think I’ll try out another idea (or maybe a hybrid of ideas) that some of you gave me that involve more than one color. And if that doesn’t work…well, it’s just paint. 🙂 I’ll keep trying other suggestions until I land on something I really like.
You can see from the picture above that I already took one suggestion that many of you had to remove the sunburst mirror and replace it with something colorful. I’m not sure if I’ll use it over the piano, but I do already have an idea for a piece of colorful artwork that I want to put over the mantel, inspired by one of my favorite artists I follow on Instagram. But more on all of that later.

January 19, 2018 at 2:44 pmI love this! Bravo My Queen
Arlene
January 19, 2018 at 10:39 amI’m not always on boards with some of your “do-overs” but this one is spot on. Wow – what a difference a little detail makes! Great idea. It sure adds dimension.
Jeanie B
January 19, 2018 at 11:44 amTotally agree, it adds so much to an already great design.
Thelma
January 19, 2018 at 1:26 pmThat is sweet!!! I love it. I wouldn’t have thought to take a sharpie to my wallpaper. Very clever. I also can not wait to see more than one color on the fireplace.
Cathy
January 19, 2018 at 10:41 amBrilliant! I love it even more!
Elle
January 19, 2018 at 10:44 amoh, YES!
Cathy
January 19, 2018 at 10:44 amWOW!!! Big impact but I do agree with your mom – a lot of work. Maybe a rainy day project??!! Good luck – it does make a huge difference.
How do you know which areas to highlight with the black?
Kristi
January 19, 2018 at 10:52 amI just outlined the top and the left of the white areas, while keeping the bottom and the right sides of the white plain.
Bobbi Jo Thompson
January 19, 2018 at 11:13 amKristi, Are you doing this free hand?
Kristi
January 19, 2018 at 11:19 amYes, the black part is freehand.
Angie
January 19, 2018 at 10:44 amI LOVEEEE this sooo much!! Schumacher makes a trellis paper that looks JUST like this, the shadow makes all the difference!!
Dana
January 19, 2018 at 10:45 amI think you are a genius!
Janis
January 19, 2018 at 11:11 amI’m thinking the same thing Dana. I’ve been following Kristi for years. Kristi you hit the nail on the head with this idea. It’s so alive now.
Deborah Steinmetz
January 19, 2018 at 10:45 amWow! The black just makes the design POP! I absolutely love it! ❤️
Eileen
January 19, 2018 at 10:47 amWow! You have some “eye”. Visiting the inside of your mind would be a real adventure!!! You are one of the most creative and innovative persons I’ve ever seen. Congrats!
Deb
January 19, 2018 at 10:48 amGreat call! Looks Ah-mazing.
Elaine Ness
January 19, 2018 at 10:48 amLooks great. Such a difference!
Happy to read that the sunburst will be relocated. I’ll await the next surprise to land above the mantle.
Sue
January 19, 2018 at 10:50 amI really like that. It looks really good and works with the doors.
Peggy
January 19, 2018 at 10:50 amI loved the stencil as it was and wouldn’t have thought to change it. However, WOW!! I love the added dimension that the black gives it. And I love black accents in a room.
Marigene
January 19, 2018 at 10:51 amWOW, what a difference…the wall looks awesome!
Deborah
January 19, 2018 at 10:52 amAs Dana says….you are a genius. Just what it needed!
Heather Gillett
January 19, 2018 at 10:52 amLoving the depth the black “shadow” brings to the stencil!
Theresa P
January 19, 2018 at 10:54 amI LOVE THIS CHANGE!!! It really looked good before, subtle and classic. But this is just so cool! I’m sure I never would have thought to do that and even if I had I probably wouldn’t have been brave enough to actually follow through. I’m so glad that you did. LOVE IT!!!
Glad to hear the sunburst is getting relocated. I was on the fence about whether or not you should keep it in the living room, given all the changes you’ve made.
Can’t wait to see the mantle!
So, does this mean that you’ve already added some items to what was your master to do list? 🙂 I’m not sure “taking sharpie to music room wall” was on there. 🙂
Kristi
January 19, 2018 at 11:01 amHaha! It definitely wasn’t on the original to do list for the year. But now I’ll have to add it just so I can cross it off. 😀
CL Hays
January 19, 2018 at 10:55 amBeautiful difference I like the sun in the piano room.
AinOakPark
January 19, 2018 at 10:55 amLOVE IT! WORTH EVERY SECOND IT TOOK! AN AMAZING DIFFERENCE!
Carol F
January 19, 2018 at 10:56 amThese walls are my favorite in the whole house! The shading is even better than the original and I didn’t think that was possible. I hope you keep the sunburst mirror in there, it looks so good against this wall!
Angela
January 19, 2018 at 10:56 amWow! What a difference. The outline makes the stencil look 3D. Nice! 😊
Jane
January 19, 2018 at 10:58 amBlack is the mascara to a room in my opinion. Well done.
Regi
January 19, 2018 at 10:59 amOh my gosh….I LOVE it! It’s amazing how such a small detail added so much dimension to it. It made it look as if it’s actually popping off the wall. I just may have to give this whole wall treatment a try in my home!
Barbara H.
January 19, 2018 at 11:01 amAmazing! I can’t believe the difference this “little” change made. And how wonderful that you were able to get that entire wall done. Now, on to the rest of that space with joy in your heart. I love the sunburst and liked it above the fireplace, but I know you’ll find just the right spot for it.
Julie
January 19, 2018 at 11:06 amWow…what a difference. Subtle, yet very impactful. I’d’ve never thought of that, and I’m impressed at how quickly you did last night’s work. <3
Joyce
January 19, 2018 at 11:11 amWow!!! I love this change! Not that it didnt already look beautiful, but now it really pops for sure.
As for the mirror being moved, i like that idea. I thought it was too much over the fireplace. I always loved it on the entryway wall.
Irene Such
January 19, 2018 at 11:12 amLOVE how a simple Sharpie brought the stencil to life. Well done!
(Have you considered store facing the fireplace? Nothing heavy, but bring in a different texture….just a thought.)
Poohla
January 19, 2018 at 11:13 amKristi, the minute I saw the wall with the black on it, I saw a third dimension! It is almost like a real trellis is mounted on that wall and I love that look. It was nice like it was but the additional dimension is visually fantastic!! Great job and so wonderful that it didn’t take you weeks to do. Keep up the great work.
PS. I think you should paint the fireplace surround the same purple as your buffet in the breakfast room. That color is beautiful.
Jane
January 19, 2018 at 11:13 amWow, wow, wow! What a great idea! That really looks classy! “I’ve your blog!
Patricia
January 19, 2018 at 11:13 amHoly Moly ! Amazing results ! How do you have such a steady hand to trace the design so perfectly ?
Is your wall flat or orange peel or knock down ? I’m thinking flat to give such a beautiful look .
Kristi
January 19, 2018 at 11:22 amMy walls are flat — no texture. And while I do have a steady hand, the black lines are far from perfect. But I’ve come to learn that en masse, imperfections tend to disappear.
Vicky Henson
January 19, 2018 at 11:20 amThis is amazing!! You are so smart!! I love it.
Jamie
January 19, 2018 at 11:20 amWow! Just amazing. I love it even more
patty reed-pederson
January 19, 2018 at 11:21 amWow way different. love it!
Diana
January 19, 2018 at 11:24 amWow…it’s amazing what a difference that makes! Adds so much dimension! Love your ideas!
Deniseke
January 19, 2018 at 11:28 amSpot on!
Stormie
January 19, 2018 at 11:37 amWow! Just Wow!
Jessica Larsen
January 19, 2018 at 11:40 amThat was a brilliant idea and you were right, it definitely adds some dimension. I love it.
Diane Mansil
January 19, 2018 at 11:44 amLove it. I love dimensional artwork and walls and this is perfect!!
Raven
January 19, 2018 at 11:47 amWow! Love how the design now pops and has dimension and movement. What great start to your 2018.
Fran
January 19, 2018 at 11:47 amThat is EXACTLY what that room needed! And I am so relieved to see that starburst mirror down from the fireplace :). Can’t wait to see updates. How are the drapes coming? Having them up may help solidify the fireplace decision as themdrapes will certainly change the lighting/shadows in the room. Good luck.
Kristi
January 19, 2018 at 12:03 pmSo far I’ve only cut the panels. 😃 I’ve got a long way to go! But I’m also waiting on some trim that I ordered for them, and that won’t arrive until Tuesday.
Cee
January 19, 2018 at 11:51 amWhat a difference a tiny black line makes! Now it feels like a real wood trellis. Great idea by you!
A little off subject, I love the sunburst you made, just don’t love it a shiny gold, maybe a dark gray would look pretty on you lattice wall. Have you ever considered painting it over?
Elaine Walton
January 19, 2018 at 11:56 amLOVE LOVE LOVE! Did I say I LOVE it? Absolutely stunning!!!
Sherre
January 19, 2018 at 11:57 amI’m glad you included your mantra, because my first thought was “omg, I know I’d immediately trace the wrong side and that imperfection would haunt me for life.” haha! In regards to your fireplace, yesterday evening I started following @memehillstudio on Instagram and one of her most recent photos was of this awesome fireplace where there is a teal backdrop and then the mantle/fireplace surround are white. It really pops! I was trying to figure out how you could do something like that without reconstructing and came up with no ideas, but maybe it’d give you some!
Kristi
January 19, 2018 at 12:10 pmOkay, I just went and looked at that fireplace, and did you notice that the curtains look light purple? I love it!! Hmmm. I wonder how I could achieve a similar look. I’ll have to give it some thought.
Sherre
January 19, 2018 at 12:18 pmYes, I definitely noticed that!! I think if you could find a way to do it, it would look gorgeous. Except I think yours might look best with a white backdrop and a bold mantle/surround. That could provide the separation between curtains and fireplace that a lot of your readers suggested…
Carla from Kansas
January 19, 2018 at 12:41 pmStunning. I’m sure you can figure out a way to mimic it.

January 19, 2018 at 12:02 pmWhat a beautiful difference…such depth! You hit this one out of the park.
Laura L
January 19, 2018 at 12:14 pmWow! The difference is stunning!
Debs
January 19, 2018 at 12:18 pmL O V E the Sharpie detail! I didn’t comment yesterday about the fireplace since you already had so many to read through, but the gray has always looked green on my screen, so I’ll be glad to see it go. I’m excited to see what you do! The drapery fabric is to die for!
Linda
January 19, 2018 at 12:19 pmLOVE it. The 3D effect it gives is amazing!
Gaye Austin
January 19, 2018 at 12:22 pmincredibly awesome…it is what was needed and you nailed it. Have you thought about painting that sunburst thingie in black? As I looked at it that is what is missing. What are your thoughts?
Laurie
January 19, 2018 at 12:33 pmYES! I love it. It really makes the stencil pop now.
Justin
January 19, 2018 at 12:49 pmYou’re right. My personal preference would still be the understated look, but it looks great both ways.
I think the difference is that without the sharpie, it looks like a subtle paint effect. It intentionally sort of fades into the background but adds texture. WITH the sharpie, it looks more like a feature wallpaper, designed to draw the eye a little more. In fact, I find it almost an optical illusion.
Em
January 19, 2018 at 12:58 pmWow! Totally brought the walls to life!! Great solution 👍🏻 👏🏻👌🏻
Melinda Ruth
January 19, 2018 at 1:00 pmI loved the original stencil but, like you, I thought something was missing. I just figured it didn’t translate on camera. Your sharpie trick just makes it pop! Totally love it.
I do have a question … Will the sharpie turn from black to brown over time?
Thank you, Melinda
Kristi
January 19, 2018 at 1:21 pmHmmm..I have no idea. Do you have experience with Shapies changing color that would lead you to believe that? I think it could probably fade, but I have no experience to lead me to believe that it might turn brown. But I think we all know that by the time the permanent black marker fades enough to actually make a difference, I will probably be ready for a different design anyway. 😀
Melinda Ruth
January 19, 2018 at 5:05 pmYes, I have had a picture colored with a sharpie go from black to an espresso brown. However, this was a number of years ago and the ink could have been a different formulation than they use today. 🙂
Brie
January 20, 2018 at 11:36 pmLooks amazing! I love it! Really great decision. Makes you black doors look so intentional and really cohesive.
Hopefully you wont want to change the walls later — I read something once upon a time about issues with painting over top of sharpie that it will always bleed thru over time because of the composition of the sharpie ink. I wold think acrylic sharpies would avoid this? But didn’t you use sharpie on your entry way bird art and successfully paint over? technology is ever evolving so maybe there is something to combat this alreafy
Kristi
January 21, 2018 at 12:01 amYep, I painted over the entryway wall with no problem. I’ve never had an issue with bleed through. If you use an oil-based primer over it (Zinsser Cover Stain is my favorite), bleed through won’t be an issue. Then you can paint over the top of that with latex paint.
Brie
January 21, 2018 at 11:12 pmOh good to know! Thanks for the info! I won’t be so hesitant to try it now!
Susan
January 19, 2018 at 1:00 pmLove it! When you do the opposite wall, will you still do top and left of the white? Or would you do top and right of the white?
Kristi
January 19, 2018 at 1:23 pmOh, that would have been brilliant! But I’ve already started it and did it top and left. 🙁
Lynne
January 19, 2018 at 1:15 pmPure genius! Never would have thought of doing that but it’s perfect. Looks like high end wallpaper. I wasn’t able to get your blog to load on my iPad yesterday to put in my two cents worth about the fireplace. I really think you should do it white like the trim. For one thing it’s going to be very hard to get a light gray that will work with gray in the fireplace surround AND the gray walls, I think you might have a lot of fighting going on there. Plus the room will look more cohesive with it done in white IMO. White will set off the drapes nicely too. Either way I look forward to the change. Oh, and I agree with some others that the sunburst mirror somehow wasn’t working although I think it might look better with a white over mantel😁
Kathleen Rupp
January 19, 2018 at 1:19 pmWOW it is amazing what the black does to the wall. The trellis pattern has now come alive! I love it! Looks fantastic with the doors. Can’t wait to see what you do with the mantel.
RO
January 19, 2018 at 1:23 pmWOW, the difference is amazing. LOVE IT.
Laurie Taylor
January 19, 2018 at 1:41 pmHoly mackerel! What a difference. Makes the original look not only flat, but dull. Love it.
Ann
January 19, 2018 at 1:41 pmWOW! Your creativity, along with talent and skill levels continue to amaze me. I loved the stenciled walls, and the outline just added such a depth. I wished I shared not only your abilities, but your courage to delve into those light-bulb moment ideas. I struggle with simply changing vignettes, thinking will it look ok..is it too large/small/dark/light/etc. etc. until I end up not doing anything! Your posts are great inspirational guides.
Rebecca B
January 19, 2018 at 1:50 pmWow, it really does look nice. I didn’t think the stencil on the walls needed improvement, but I have to say, it is quite amazing how much “oompf” has been added with a sharpie …. and in a good way!
Lori
January 19, 2018 at 1:52 pmWOW!! Also, wish I could send you a photo of a fabric I found at my Joann’s. I have the same living room rug as you. The pattern on the fabric I found is somewhat similar to your wall design. That pattern is a variegated blue that is identical to the blue shades in the rug. It has soft matching beige “brush” stripes inside the blue pattern that is over what I would consider a “polar bear” white color. I made a pillow and also used it to cover a very small footstool that sets near the rug…looks wonderful. It looks like you, or at least what I think looks like you! 🙂
Kristi
January 19, 2018 at 1:53 pmYou can email me a photo! [email protected]
Julie
January 19, 2018 at 2:00 pmLove it. Honestly ditto for me on your tenacity and persistence, you have my admiration….
Just curious did you consciously choose to repeat the rhythms… the doors, the walls, the lyre for the piano music? Personally I love it. I like some drama, texture, contrast, etc but I love elements that have some connecting rhythms.
I even do that in fashion…. may pull an element from a clothing item into an accessory….
Just love connection
Kristi
January 19, 2018 at 2:09 pmI did intentionally choose this pattern for the walls because it complimented my doors without being exactly matching.
Jeni25
January 19, 2018 at 2:15 pmGreat idea! That did the trick. Pops!
What do you think about using that trick on painted cement floors? Hmmm…
Kristi
January 19, 2018 at 2:28 pmI think it would wear off unless you coat it with something. I’m a big believer in General Finishes clear coats. Not sure what they have for floors, but surely they have something. Or you could just do Sharpie touchups when needed in the traffic areas.
KathieB
January 19, 2018 at 2:17 pmOh boy, does that ever make a big difference! I especially like how it brings out the background color.
Lisa Johnson
January 19, 2018 at 2:22 pmLOVE it!!!!!!!
Marianne in Mo.
January 19, 2018 at 2:43 pmGenius! And challenging, at least for me! But I’m 64! Seriously, that looks so awesome!
Wilmoo
January 19, 2018 at 2:53 pmThe black outline does really make a difference. Well worth the time. Great job as always.
Chelle Ellis
January 19, 2018 at 2:54 pmI didn’t care for the stenciled wall at all before but now I love it. The black is just what it needed to bring it to life and not look like an unnecessary pattern. To me, it looks like beautiful three color vintage wallpaper. Excellent!
Khadija
January 19, 2018 at 3:18 pmWOW!
Margo
January 19, 2018 at 3:26 pmLove the added dimension it gives. Great idea and great job.
Don’t hate me, but I really do not like the brown piano against that wall or so close to the black doors. I would’ve loved to see you paint the piano. I know, I know, not a popular opinion. I have loved following your blog for years and continue to enjoy your decorating journey. Keep Calm and Decorate On.
Kristi
January 19, 2018 at 3:31 pmDon’t worry. This area of the room will have lots of color by the time I’m done. 🙂 The piano will just be a foundation piece that grounds the color.
Michele
January 19, 2018 at 3:31 pmI really really loved the before picture and I’ve been scheming how I might do this myself. But the after!!!! Wow!!!! I am running out of exclamation points here, on a tight budget, lol. On my laptop this photo looks amazing and there is a gorgeous 3D effect. Not overwhelming or screaming at you, just tasteful and popping off the wall in a very very good way. Well done Kristi!
Bonnie Leighton
January 19, 2018 at 3:34 pmWow! That makes a wonderful difference!
Margaret
January 19, 2018 at 4:28 pmI love the change that the bit of black adds. Beautiful!
Sharon C
January 19, 2018 at 4:41 pmWow, I would have never thought of doing this. Brilliant idea Kristi. The stencil design really makes it pop now. Love it.
Sarah
January 19, 2018 at 4:44 pmYou nailed it!!
Holly C
January 19, 2018 at 4:48 pmThis now looks live VERY expensive wallpaper I have seen and loved.
Rebecca Francis
January 19, 2018 at 5:32 pmYou are so right! This really makes an impact. So much better. I agree with more than one color on the fireplace too. I painted mine with chalk paint – top dark gray, front and sides taupe. I added decals and antiqued them with the gray. I really like it. I am with you. If I don’t like something it’s gonna be changed. Ha!
Jeannie
January 19, 2018 at 5:55 pmLoved the stencil before but now…WOW! Like you sun in there too. Can’t wait to see what you do next. Wish I had your energy but…20 years makes a difference!
Kimberly
January 19, 2018 at 6:28 pmKristi, the addition of the black detail on the stencil wall is astounding in how much dimension it provides. On my screen in some of the pics it even appears to add vibrancy to the paint colors. Such a seemingly small thing that gives a big impact!
Did you use a regular Sharpie, or a Sharpie paint pen? I have a couple Sharpie paint pens that I’ve tested on a flat, horizontal surface and they work fine, but I’m wondering how they would work if used vertically, and if they might possibly drip?
Kristi
January 19, 2018 at 7:35 pmI used a chisel tip, which is basically a bigger size of the regular, stinky black Sharpie. I don’t think I’ve ever tried a Sharpie paint pen, so I’m not sure how they’d work on a wall.
Sheri
January 19, 2018 at 7:12 pmAwesome.
Judy
January 19, 2018 at 8:36 pmThis is amazing!!! Who knew! Well, Kristi did 🙂
Becky
January 19, 2018 at 8:56 pmWOW! I can’t believe the difference! I thought it was beautiful before, but now…… WOW!
Luanne f.
January 19, 2018 at 8:56 pmWhat an amazing difference in the detail. Whatever made you decide to give it a try!
Sharon McNamara
January 20, 2018 at 12:22 amI already loved this wall but the addition of those black embellishments makes the whole thing POP. I’m gobsmacked.
Pamela Myers
January 20, 2018 at 9:23 amIt adds a whole new dimension! Great idea on this upgrade.
Kari
January 20, 2018 at 10:07 amLove this! I am feeling inspired to look at my guest room with new eyes. It looks good. Fine but not great. Now I’m thinking maybe it just needs a tweak, add a little black maybe 😊, instead of starting all over.
Karen
January 20, 2018 at 11:28 amThis is simply incredible. Is there any way you can post a close-up of the black outlining? Did you use a fine, medium or broad-tipped Sharpie? I can’t draw a straight line with a ruler, much less outline anything like this! You are awesome!
Kristi
January 20, 2018 at 12:12 pmThe last three pictures are clickable so that you can see the outline in more detail on a larger picture. The Sharpie I used is called a chisel tip. It body of the pen is a large oval shape rather than round like most Sharpies, and the actual tip looks like a calligraphy pen where you can draw thick or thin. I used the tip to do the markings on my wall, which still makes pretty thick lines since it’s one of their largest markers to begin with.
Karen
January 26, 2018 at 8:34 amThanks, Kristi! You are so, so talented!
Genelle McDaniel
January 20, 2018 at 12:07 pmI can’t believe how that outline or shadowing makes the design jump right out from the wall. It now looks 3 dimentional. Great job.
Susan L.
January 21, 2018 at 7:34 amPhenomenal. Just phenomenal.
Robyn
January 21, 2018 at 4:07 pmWow!!!! That little sharpie makes a HUGE difference!!!! Great job also keeping the marks on the correct side.
Rebecca Neustel
