Roundup: Paint Drips in Home Decor

click thumbnails for larger pics

Inspired by the raw formations of dripping paint, this trend makes a nod to street art. Whether deliberately designed or thrown haphazardly on the wall, drips introduce an element of edginess into a room. We've rounded up a few good finds, from prototypes to mass-produced products to DIY decor...

• 1 Available: Drop Hooks by Julian Appelius
• 2 Vintage: Drip Steel Oil Barrel from Factory 20
• 3 Inspiration: Brian Lichtenberg's Bathroom from the Selby
• 4 Prototype: Paint Drip Table by John Nounesing
• 5 For DIYers: Krink Inks and Markers

totally strange and intriguing in the same glance..

it's not totally practical for someone like myself who is much more into conservative design, but i think it'd be really cute to incorporate in a game room/ kids room/ art room!

cute!

i do like it. i like the thinner and concentrated areas of drips rather than the spread out thick ones.

would be awesome to paint the coat hook the same color as your wall.

I love the table as a concept, but when I think about having it in my kitchen, the only thing I can think of it... see those little "drops" of paint, the little circles that aren't attached to the rest of the table? Would I have to glue those to my floor, or would I be forever accidentally kicking them around?
