Vintage Modern Home
Ah, college… roommates, Ramen noodles, and recycled furniture. Between books and bar hopping there’s little to no money to spend and certainly not on new furniture. Turn your borrowed furniture bohemian and paint what your momma gave ya!Get inspired then come get your paint!
This week’s Before & After comes to us from Jen Green of Green Spruce Designs, whose piece won our Chalk Paint Giveaway for having the most likes on instagram! The very talented Jen used layers of Chalk Paint to create a gorgeous driftwood look. How beautiful does it look?
The first step in this transformation was to paint a base coat of Graphite . Next, Jen used a dry brushing technique to layer a lightened Honfleur, Paris Grey and French Linen.
Once those layers had dried, she did a color wash of Paris Grey. She sealed it with Clear Wax for a lasting finish. How beautiful is this effect? Check out the closeup!
