Introduction to my online mini course: Learn the Secrets to Layering Chalk Paint
A quick introduction to my online minicourse in how to layer chalk paint for an authentically aged furniture finish!
Do you want to paint a beautiful, authentic and gently timeworn piece of furniture? But when you try you find it never quite looks the way you imagined? It looks one way in your head but somehow it never turns out how you hoped?
Creating an aged, layered finish is my absolute favourite way to paint. I have spent years experimenting with different chalk paint techniques. I would love to show you the secrets to mastering these techniques and how easy it is to create authentic and beautiful aged furniture when you have a step by step guide to apply them.
That is why I created an easy to follow mini course showing you the simple processes to layering up some easy chalk paint techniques and creating the beautiful finish on this side table. You can take these techniques and make them your own by using them to create your own beautiful and unique furniture pieces.

    • @plainjane.paints
      @plainjane.paints Před měsícem

      The paint comes pre mixed in the tin. You can decant a little into a container if you want so you don’t keep dipping your brush back into the tin. That way you keep it clean but you don’t have to 😊

    • @plainjane.paints
      @plainjane.paints Před 4 měsíci

      You will need to remove the peeling paint. If you paint over an unstable surface like peeling paint then the next layer can’t adhere properly. Scrape off the peeling paint and sand the area smooth before painting 👍😊

    Hello! We are new to chalk painting and having a bit of trouble with applying a topcoat. I’ve let my design dry for days but when I brush polycrylic on top, it still smears onto my wood. I apply chalk paint with a foam roller. Does anyone know what I can do differently? Thank you so much.

    • @plainjane.paints
      @plainjane.paints Před 4 měsíci

      Hi there, It’s hard to comment without knowing exactly which type of paint and topcoat you are using but it sounds like the topcoat is reactivating the paint. Chalk paint should be very well dried and adhered after a few days

    Do you slightly dampen your brush with water before using paint: Acrylics, chalk or latex?

    • @plainjane.paints
      @plainjane.paints Před 5 měsíci

      If the weather is very dry and hot I will sometimes keep a jar of water next to me to dampen bristles before dipping into the paint. Most of the time it’s not needed but very dependent on the conditions 👍😊
