This was an EXCELLENT video! Were you ever a teacher? Not only did you provide actually helpful tips and a detailed how to, but you also instruction on how to conceptually understand what to do in each step and how to stay organized throughout the whole process!!! You'll never see that on HGTV or other home design videos. Cannot express enough how helpful this video was, and I have done a TON of research on this!
Aaawww thank you! What a kind thing to say!!
Your tutorial was excellent! You would make a very thorough teacher! Thank you so much for sharing! The wall looks fabulous!
Thank you so much! This is the best tutorial I have ever heard. Literally. It’s exactly what I needed!
I've watched 100 of these so far, best one yet, thank you!
Great video! I would like to paint my home office a purple ombre. My master bedroom is painted a dark purple and my bathroom is painted light purple. My home office is in between these two rooms so I thought it would be cool to have the dark purple on the bottom of the walls and then work up to the light purple at the top of the wall. I think it will look really cool.
Another tip about getting a perfect color match at home depot is to let them use their tool to scan the item you want matched. Their technology tells them the exact percentage of which pigments they need to mix into the base to get that color. Thank you for this generous tutorial. A friend wants an ombre wall and I referred her to you.
Thank you SO MUCH for your tutorial! It kept me organized and calm through the entire process.
thank you for the super explicit advice! you've saved me watching any more videos and answered all my questions. Looks good. You got that graduation down.
Glad I could help!
AWESOME VIDEO!!! We followed your instructions and our room came out incredible!! Your rule of half mixing was perfect! Thank you for the video!!!
Yeah!!!!!!! If you post on Instagram tag me @theRealWendyValencia I LOVE seeing room make overs!!!!
Well done video! Excellent tips, especially the discussion about transitions and planning.
Well done!!! I feel like I'm ready to go now! Thanks for sharing!
rightly said! this is the place for ombre DIY. This video has exact information that I needed. Thank a lot!
Aaawww what a kind thing to say!!! Glad it helped
Wow that is really pretty, you’re daughter must be so happy.
Great video! I feel more confident now when I do my ombre wall. Thanks!
Excellent video! Thanks for the tips!!
This was the best video of DIY ombre paint. thank you so much
Awesome job!!! Canvas great idea!
Thank you for the great tips. Very informative video.
Thanks this was just wat I needed so self explanatory and I can see where I can tweak a bit and experiment as you said with the ombre... ❤️ love your tips common sense and simple instructions...
Thank you so much for such a detailed video specially the transition thing. I'm planning to paint my daughter's room in ombre and your video has actually helped me a lot. I have been researching a lot and most of the videos were about just one colour ombre and I want to do it in two colours like you did. Thank you so much will update you once I finish
Thank you for the detailed tutorial!
Great video! Nice explanations for each point, and I liked the text-on-screen as well.
Lady, you are awesome! Greetings from Germany and big thanks for the best ombré tutorial :)
Aww THANKS!! Of course! Sending safe wishes overseas!
Thank you. You provided a lot of information to go over. Very helpful.
Very helpfull. Thanks
Thank you so much for this tutorial, it will make my own paint job to be SO much better :D
Phenomenal tutorial, thank you for sharing your experience with us. I will definitely follow your directions!
Thanks Taylor!!
Wow! That came out AMAZING!!!
This is so cool! It looks awesome! Turned out so great! Love the colors you chose.
Just watched your video and the more I watched the more I began to say to myself I like you. I liked your dry humor and honesty and if we ever met we would be friends. Even though my husband says I never met a stranger, true. But, I never met a site that I just wanted to subscribe to just because of personality. Oh, your Ombre was just what I was looking for. But, I will have to incorporate glitter. SMILE
OOOHHHH Glitter!!!! Why did I not think of that?! That would have been INCREDIBLE!
@@WendyValenciaOkay, I know you uploaded this 4 years ago and your latest responses were 2 years ago, but do you have any tips for painting an entire room with this technique?
P.S. I'm doing glitter on the ceiling for my girls, but my husband doesn't know that yet. He gonna kill me! 😂🤣😂
great video and very helpful
Wendy, thank you so much for breaking it all down!!!
Can you use a sponge to bring the colours together please? I'm keeping the white at the top then pink, lavender, mauve whisper and indigo blue, making a northern light theme and paint white stars with a fine brush
Wow. That looks so cool. Great job!
Thanks Wendy!!
Great tutorial! Good job!
Wow! Thank you SO much for this amazing tutorial and your advice!! So helpful!! ☺️
Thanks. I want peach to blue, and was concerned about what color the two mixed together would create
Great video, wonderful instructions and amazing wall!
I. Can. Do. This. Thankyou lol great explanation. I saw a video where a girl used a squirt bottle of water to help spread and blend out the paint :)
For me and my ADD brain that visual map of the mixing made it so much easier to understand. Lol like you said. I do WAY better seeing it laid out than verbally explained 😂
Ooooohhh I bet the water would really help the blending!!! That is a great idea!!!
Idea what about numbering brushes and paint pans
That was impressive!
Can you share the BEHR paint Colors you chose? I would like a similar look.
I wish I could, but I picked them based on matching the bedspread and did not save the cans
Thank you for all the details!! I want so much to do like four pastel colours but I'm really afraid of messing it up :/
It's beautiful.
This has been the best ombré tutorial however, I’m scared that if I use my solid light blue color and add half white, for the first transition, that it will be too much of a light transition. Any suggestions? I’m only using light blue to white. I need help with the measurements of white for the transition.
You can actually add more of the original color back into it to darken it up if it is too light and you want less of a transition. This is why I highly suggest using a canvas. The 1/2 method was perfect for the aqua but we ended darkening up the pink by adding mor pink to the first color
This is such a succint and well put together tutorial. I'm curious though, did you leave the otehr walls white? I'm asking because I really hate white. I really want to do ombre in my bedroom but I just don't want any white walls around it so I'm hesitating. Also, it's a really high ceiling bedroom so that's something that's been working on me on what to figure out what to do.
We did leave the other walls white (but there is a ton of white in the room so it pulled it all together. Me personally (esp for this ombré) all 4 walls would have been way too much but there is no rule that says you can’t paint them all ombré. Or you could paint them a solid color...maybe one of the mid level transition colors?!?
I want to do an accent wall in my daughters' room. One's favorite color is blue and the other one's is pink, they both like purple. I thought it would look nice to do a pink to blue horizontal ombre in the wall behind their beds, with purple. Would that look bad?
So long as you make sure both colours have the same values and saturation, it would probably look nice! By values I mean, having both be the same shade of dark/white. By saturation I mean how intense the colour is. If you go from something like a pale pink to a very solid blue, you might feel like there is too much visual weight on the wall that has the blue side. Vertical is easier accidentally make the room feel unbalanced, but if you balance it, it should be fine!
If you want to test it out and you don't have access to digital software, you can take a photo of the room with the wall in it (make sure to include some other things from the room, such as beds, etc.), print it on paper, and draw over the wall with coloured pencils that are about the same colours you want. You can look up pencil blending techniques, and make your own blend on the image. It should serve as a pretty good visual representation of what you want to test out, and then you can choose if that's something you want or not (and ask your daughter her opinion!)
I made my tests digitally straight from a photo I took, but the concept is the same :)
What was your wall size? Did you buy quarts or gallons for each ombré color? It looks great
1 gallon of each color the wall is 12 feet long but has a huge window. There was tons of paint left over
Hi, love your video! Makes an ombré wall look somewhat easy to do! I am considering painting all four walls in my daughter’s room. Did you have any paint left over after finishing the one wall? I’m trying to gauge how many cans I’ll need to buy. Thank you!
Not a bad idea while we are all stuck inside!
I like the energy
So I did everything exactly as described and it looks like it needs a second coat! How do I do that?
U seem so nice and funny, and remind me of an upgraded version of my second grade teacher who was mean, old, and not pretty with a perfect hair style like you. (Sorry Mrs. Robe u were mean!) I wish you were my teacher...Sorry I'm an artist with coffee who got distracted and started thinking about that. ..besides that your ideas are smart with ease Great video!
Lol!!!!
So pretty Wendy! BTW...I loved the thumbnail....it totally made me click🙂
Aaaawwww thanks!
What is an estimate on charging for something like this?
You could've used 2 nice brushes going from light to dark with both colors
The best explanation I’ve seen so far, but when the guy doing the strips uses the brush, he doesn’t do it in a 45 degree angle. He just did it in a straight line. Why is that? It’s confusing.
Video started 12:15....
This seems more complex than it has to be.
It is actually REALLY easy. I literally went through every single little step for those who might need it. The simple concept is get a can of color and a can of white. In an empty container dump half color and half white. Mix well. In a new container dump half of that color and half white and mix well. Do that for as many transitions you need
Watch the clip at 9:34 with the graphic of how to mix the paint...that is the concept of how to mix the paint. If you know how to do that the rest you can wing
I assumed people spray painted any reasons why not
My god I fell asleep
