Faux/Texture Wall Finish

We started texturing the walls. You can see what color the walls were before. This was the begining stage of a room that was going to go from the salmon color to a very different look as you see below.. We textured a hand troweled heavy knockdown

This is the primer. I love Sherwin Williams products and service!

You can see the texture here much better. Leaving pockets/areas that are not textured is going to be key to the look. Without these pockets the final stage with the glaze won't look as good.

We were going to bring out the green and bronze colors out in the unique bedspread. It is one of 200 in existence.

After the primer we begin to paint. With a very bright green. It needs to be bright in order to keep some of its character and richness once the glaze is applied.

We began the second to last step of rubbing the glaze on top of the paint.... very messy job

Then we dabbed it off. Rubbing it off only darkened the wall and did not leave the look we were going for.

The empty pockets sucked up the glaze and give it depth.
