    looks so good! Did you have any issues with really obvious brushstrokes? I'm on coat 3 for mine and the brush strokes are just so obvious, bah. But maybe that's the charm haha?

      Hi :)
      I have no idea (not too educated on paints). The paint I purchased is from a brand called Behr and its a water based “interior flat” . I used the basic cheapest option.

    thanks for sharing. have you tried this method with two different colours, i.e. blue with green? most videos on this technique seem to limit to beige or cream colours.

    • @sakiynajones
      @sakiynajones  7 місяців тому +3

      I actually haven’t. I wonder if you do use 2 different colors, if it will end up producing another color. I used 2 tones on beige because I wanted to get the outcome of beige. But if you use 2 other colors: ex. blue + green, it will make a teal color. Would recommend if your goal is to make a new color.

    Hi, it looks very nice, thank you for sharing. Do you think it would work with darker colours or I need to cover the wall with one of the wanted shades before? I am thinking to try something like this in terracotta.

    • @sakiynajones
      @sakiynajones  8 місяців тому +1

      Glad this was helpful :). That's a good question. I think it would work with darker colors. I recommend to get sample paint to try it out first though. You could also do terracotta and add a lighter color in (depending on the style you want).

    I was taught this technique using a short roller instead of a brush, works wonderfully. Having the roller damp when starting is also suggested but I never re-dipped it. I think it does use more paint with the roller though.

      So sorry about that! The brand is, Linzer and the Brush is “Block deck polyester blend flat stain brush”. Any brush similar will work.

      @sakiynajones  7 місяців тому +1

      Hi :). So i’m unfamiliar with French wash and Milano wash. But limewash is a paint that has a suede/chalky like texture. If you Pinterest “limewash”, you’ll see the style.
