Today damask designs come in a range of daring, high-contrast colors on everything from rugs and tiles to floral background, painted stencils and fashion runways.

Stencils supply a similar style for less price. Not only are the stencils reusable, but are also a terrific way to create a custom look in home with unlimited color combinations.
