From habitat plus - special paint effects
Get a wriggle on with some curvaceous room designs
Curves are friendly, cuddly shapes so it’s no wonder that when the world seems a little upside down, we gravitate towards these organic forms. Start with a simple circle, then progress to something more free-form. Go all out with fluid freehand swirls or choose a more rhythmic pattern of waves or curved forms. If you're unleashing your inner artist and are going for a more artistic interpretation, like the abstract squiggle one below, use different width brushes and take the pattern across the floor.
Top tip: To create a neat circle, use a pencil on the end of an anchored piece of string.
