How do you measure Harlequins around a room?

Question

I'm doing Harlequins in two different bathrooms ceiling to chair rail which is about 4'8" and 6ft long on 2 walls and 8'7" on the other walls, she wants them long and skinny. My math skills are not good, but these aren't going to come out right in the corners are they?

Answer 1

the corners are not your worries...it is the center of the ceiling that you are concerned about ...tiling, painting, any decoration like this starts in the center so as many full pieces of the design can be viewed
