The hardware on the armoire was black, but I needed them to pop off the new black color:
I used stencils I already had, with the glaze, to decorate the armoire doors:
The is the artwork I made for over our master bedroom fireplace. I used the bronze glaze to highlight the texture:
I used another stencil with the glaze to add to the wainscoting in the powder room:
And used the glaze to repaint the textured parts on the powder room walls so they would pop. (I also used the glaze for the mirror!):
There are so many different options available -- tons of different metallic glazes and hundreds of colors at the craft store. I was going for the bronze look and this turned out to be just what I wanted. AND I still have some left. Believe me, I've tried to find more places to use it but I just need to put the bottle AWAY. :)
Sarah, I am going to have to try the metallic paints!! The bronze looks awesome! What a great idea!!
ReplyDeleteSo cool! I love the stencils you used too. I've thought of doing a large stencil pattern in my powder bath downstairs. I don't want it to look too "crafty" though. Yours look really nice.
