Festive season Wall Painting



Want some cool ideas to paint your walls this Festive Season ?... let me share you a DIY easy painting...

1  1.   POP Magic:
Start by mixing plaster of Paris in water; keep the consistency thick, so that it can stick to    the wall
-with your hand, apply a thick layer of POP on one corner of the wall. Before it dries off, give texture with your “fingers”
Horizontal, Vertical, Lines, Circles, Anything you want to experiment with.
-Give texture to complete wall and let it dry.
-Apply a coat of primer and let it dry.
-Paint the wall in your desired color &get beautifully textured walls.


2. Antique Walls:
              Start by painting the wall with your desired color.
-Mix Glaze and same color paint in the ratio 4:1
-using a roller, paint a small section diagonally (left to right).Repeat the motion opposite direction (right to left).
-Let it set for 5-10 min. Wipe the textured areas with a damp sponge & create antique looking     faded walls





3. Sponge Paint:
           Paint your wall with your desired color.
-          Make sure the color is two tones lighter that the one you will choose create texture with the sponge.
-          Mix glazing liquid with the darker paint in the ration say 2:1
-          Dip the sponge lightly in water & then into the paint mix.
-          Dab the sponge on the cloth to wipe off excess paint.
-          Press the sponge onto the wall and twist it. Leave 1 inch gap and repeat it.
Variety of motion notes can be created to create different patterns on the wall.
