I am faux painting a tray ceiling using a technique called metallic textured finish, and it requires mixing the paint with drywall compound, using a squirrel mixer and drill. After researching, I think I can create the same effect by using Plaster of Paris, instead of drywall compound. It would be easier, since POP is in powder form. My question is, do you agree? |

I want to Color wash using a dark green, deep red and a cream. All the color washing techniques I have seen are using lighter colors. Will the darker colors work or should I try another technique? If it will work what color should I start and finish with? |

We have wood interior windows (brand new Marvin) that we wanted to stain a cherry color to match the trim in the house.

Is there a way to easily remove the stain or somehow make it more consistent without just making it consistently the darkest color. |
