Faux Finishing Tips and Tricks - Color Washing
Looking
for a NEW look for your walls? Do you enjoy the soft look
of blended colours? Are your walls textured?
|
|
Then
the faux
finish, colour washing, may be for you.
Here are some examples that may
help you get inspired. There are
various ways to do do this faux finish, color
washing. Colour washing
can be done with several colours, with a paintbrush,
rags or sponges. You may use paint which is either
mixed with glaze, water or not mixed at all...and is
applied as pure paint. |

I
am not only the Designer/Decorator of these colour washed
walls but I have done all of the work too. Unlike some
Interior Designers, I actually do most of my own
work. The above examples are no exception. They were
all designed, developed and painted by me, Shelly Whitney.
