Love it! I'm so glad that you were conservative in the amount of the little speckles you used. Too often I've seen pieces where too much was done and I think how much more appealing if the "artist" had remembered, "less is more". Good job!
So I had an outdoor statue that I bought from Toscano. After a few years, it ended up with some cracks and holes. I patched the holes with texture paste, and followed these instructions/ steps, to tee, right down to the paint choices. What a transformation! It actually looks better than when I initially purchased mine.
I’ve just done this the best I could with the paint I already had at home it was a broken Budda lamp and I filled it with concrete and now very heavy haha and saw this and absolutely great idea ❤
I love this. I do a lot of these , but I’ve never added the fly speck - I like the effect! I would definitely spray her with an outdoor rated matte top coat but you know your Dixie products :) just love the transformation❣️ 🙏
1st of all, great score by your sister!👏 I think u did a fantastic job & I love it! I have a couple of faux lady head planters & they just look so cheap & fake, but I knew a good paint job would do the trick. Thxs for sharing! Can't wait to try your technique out.
Hi!! I am living in Bolivia and do not think I can find that first chalk paint here. I have some plastic bujías candle holders I would love to do this technique on. Could I add shaved chalk to a paint? Thank you, beautiful work and sooo glad I subscribed!
Hi Maria! i wouldn't suggest adding shaved chalk but it is easy to make your own DIY version with what you probably already have at home. Hope this helps salvagedinspirations.com/best-homemade-chalk-paint-recipes/
Could I ask what type of cloth you are using to dab the paint please? Great result, I have a dark grey buddha that I would like to use your technique on. X
I believe your referring to this makeover? salvagedinspirations.com/how-to-create-a-black-wash-paint-finish-painted-nightstands/ I have a blog post tutorial but I wasn't sharing videos back then.
@@SalvagedInspirations yes, it is, thank you! I thought there was a video tutorial, my mistake. This is one of my absolute favorites. Would love a video demonstration ☺
OMG!!! I LOVE this stone finish! It looks so easy and absolutely beautiful! I was out looking for a few new planters and the price tags were just depressing!! They were all so expensive! Now, I'm confident that some of the plastic containers I have, will soon look like beautiful stone containers!! Could you give me the name of the spray protectant you used ? Thank you Denise!
thanks Kristina! And for sure, if you click the "see more" in the description box above, I have the full list of paint colors and wax topcoat I used. :)

I learn so much from you! I’ve done this before but not with the darker splatter and that is the best part!
Thanks so much Karen!!!

Did you have a black washing w/coffee bean video? I remember it being on nightstands? I really loved that look.

I love the stone look!! 💛Much more than brassy or gold look. If drips.. do you spray with water for a chalk or mineral paint?

I love your voice.
Can I use Annie Sloan clear wax as top coat? If it’s for an indoor furniture or Matt lacquer for outdoor?
damn, insane
Thank you!! 😃💙
