A Modern Alternative to Ordinary Paint

Who says you have to use matte, flat, or satin interior paint all the time? Transform any space into a masterpiece with these modern creative finishes:



Textured Paint: Sand-like granules cover flaws in walls and impart a rustic look. Premium Plus Texture Paint, $26 for a 2-gallon can.


Metallic Paint: Light-reflecting pigments give walls shimmer. Faux Impressions Metallic, $75 per gallon.


Pearl Paint: An iridescent glaze with a milky glow. Studio Finish Glaze Pearlescent White 101, $34 per gallon.


Suede Paint: Microscopic beads create a soft, fabric-like finish that adds depth and texture to walls. Suede, $54 per gallon.


If you are not quite ready to paint the entire room using one of these finishes, paint an accent wall instead. An accent wall can be as dramatic and attention grabbing as painting the entire room. Be sure that the color of the other walls in the room is within the same color family to ensure you are bringing continuity to the space. Add some décor that is complementary to the finish of your choosing and you'll have the artistic room of your dreams!

Tip of the Month: August 2011

If your walls have holes or cracks, it is best to fix them before you start painting. Your project last a lot longer. Wide cracks and large holes need to be "bridged" with fiberglass tape and spackled or use caulk to fill small holes and cracks.

Ask Dave

Question:

Hi Dave. I am trying to breathe some life into some old furniture for my kids' room and I'm having a hard time finding a resource for having the bedroom furniture repainted. Is that something that you do or do you know anyone that you can recommend?

There are two twin beds with headboards and footboards, 2 dressers (one with a mirror), and a nightstand table. I want them painted a glossy and durable bright white. If I don't find someone to help I'm afraid that my husband will
try to do it. Can you help? Thanks!!
