It’s week 4 of the One Room Challenge and after painting the bedroom walls in a light warm white (Swiss Coffee by Behr) and doing lots of demo work I felt like I wanted to do take a break from the boring parts and add something pretty to the space. On a whim I ended up doing a last-minute DIY limewash to the space!
Here’s how I did it:
- get two similar paint colors in different shades
- pour them into two paint containers or split one with tape to get both colors next to each other
- dip a wide paint brush into both colors at once
- brush the paint on in a crisscross shape making X’s along the wall
- do a second coat on any patchy areas or the entire wall
