Great tutorial! Thank you so much!
Thanks for watching!
I feel so caught up just from watching this video alone. I'm an art student at a University in a small town and a previous assignment of mine had me watching youtube videos where someone had mentioned milk paint- it stuck with me, because I was like what the heck is that. But I was busy and carried on, later, went walking around a store in town, and saw some bags labeled milk paint. I took a picture to remember. Now, my current assignment, my instructor said to finish our pieces, he had some milk paint to use. I found myself on youtube searching "what is milk paint", watch a series of videos that were pretty blah. Finally coming across your video one night, I wasn't looking to refurbished something but I let it play and I'm glad I did! Immediately saved it. Next thing I know I watched 5 Amy Howard videos lol! All about 40 mins each. I finally referred back to my pictures in my phone and zoomed in and saw "Amy Howard" lol, needless to say, I went and purchased some milk paint, light and dark wax, and the antique finish, and a few brushes. I'm an art student living off my savings so I had use discretion lol otherwise I would have gotten some more.
Thank you for your support!
These are all beautiful. I especially love the last one!!
Glad you like them!
Just fabulous! Every piece!
Omg I LOVE THIS LOOK! Awesome 👏
I super love this! 😍 I had 2 mirror thrift finds and I will do this technique! Thank your for this video! 😉🙌🏻👍🏻
Yay! Thank you!
I am always amazed at these specialty products like mica powder. I had never seen it before and now I'm thinking of ways to apply it to my projects. Thanks for this tutorial.
Thanks, Richard! The mica powders are real game changers for your projects! Glad you enjoyed them! Thanks for watching!
I love the Venetian plaster!
Wow! I need to try the Venetian Plaster and the mica powders with the wax. Thanks so much!
Thanks for the clear instructions. I am going to attempt this technique with cracked gesso. I am glad you said ...this is where you would use gesso. Between the two colors.
Thanks so much, Karen! 👏
fabulous
Thank you! And thanks for watching!
Fabulous job. I like the way you think about executing layers with different products. Really enjoyed your video and plan to use some of the techniques.
Thanks, Colleen! It’s all about the layers. Which makes it really fun. Thanks for watching!
wonderful tips. Look forward to trying.
Beautiful 😍
MARAVILHOSO !!!
Enjoyed the video. I just signed up for the OWF course.
Thanks, Beth! You’re gonna love the course! It’s the best ever! Thanks so much for watching!
That turned out very nice. Your techniques are amazing. You are the best I've EVER seen! You definitely know your media, you understand how it will end up. The look is very professional and expensive. the total cost of those paints probably exceeds.the value of those pieces.
You mentioned the colors of milk paint but not the brands. nothing is listed in the description. please describe the brand's also.
personally, I liked the sconces black. I would have left it with gold leafing only. Now the tissue box colors were more to my liking.
Thank you for the tutorial and tips. (we cannot see.the mica powder results at all)
Sonja, I am wanting to deepen the color and was hoping the wax would darken the finish. The wax does not seem to be going on easily. My flat test sample worked fine. My bench is just not working well. Any advice?
one of my favourite tutorials. but bit confused with the last piece - how did the gold leaf show through? and what did the use of venetian plaster add to process?
I was wondering the exact same thing! What are the steps/products (OS or CP)?/ before applying the Venetian Plaster???
Hermosisima técnica❗
Do you have a website or UA-cam for Socks on a Rooster that I can follow?
Hi Trina! I have a Facebook page Socks on a Rooster. And a UA-cam page coming soon. And will be updating it much more often with new videos. Thanks for watching!
@@socksonaroosterfinishes-so1501 I'll be on the lookout for it. You are very talented and enjoyable to watch. Thank you
How does gold leaf show through?
It shows through faintly from underneath the plaster. That's the gold color you see on the edges and tops of the box.
Why gold leaf first?
applying gold leaf first can set the stage for a stunning and dynamic decorative finish, allowing you to unleash your creativity and bring your vision to life.
Beautiful 😍
Thank you! 😊
