Decorative Painting Techniques

Apply color on the walls of a room already represents an embellishment, but if we add a color chosen technique different from the traditional application we obtain results that are truly original and striking.

The styling technique is to achieve a striped effect on the wall. The same designs can be vertical, horizontal or wavy without specifying a pattern strictly symmetrical. To use this technique requires a few guards with rubber veins are the ones who give the effect of scratches in the paint.

The first thing you should do is put a base coat that matches the color of a selected end, once this layer is completely dry apply the selected color paint covering the entire wall with the paint still fresh, combs move in that vein that we have selected.

Another decorative painting technique is that of the foam which is a bit simpler to implement than the previous one but also requires the application of a primer that matches the chosen color.

This technique can be applied in two ways: once the paint dried base color is applied end soaking a sponge in paint and supporting it with taps on the wall or the other way is to paint the wall evenly, with the material is still fresh, go removing the paint in some sectors with a dry sponge.

In both cases you should always be careful with the intensity that we give the sponge if you really want to get an even result.

As you can see there are simple techniques that can apply in person and get an interesting and original effect in the decoration of a room.
