Whats under my foot

One of my walls is painted, repaired and put back together. Instead of painting half of the wall green I decided on whitewashing. The slant portion of the wall, I scrubbed to make the paint look more aged but wish I had added a little gold or brown to make the color itself look more aged.

The knee wall is a different type of wood than the upper slant wall so it absorbed the milk paint a little differently. For this section I applied a coat of milk paint, wiped it with a dry cloth and once dried I applied a second coat and wiped. At this moment I like the way it looks.

Two more walls to paint and trim around the doors on the 4th wall.

I love these tulips from Gretchen’s Little Corner.

Look at this adorable baby quilt from Grace and Peace Quilting.

For more inspiration, I invite you to visit the last Put your foot down 333 to see what everyone shared. When you participate in the linky party I ask that somewhere in your post you share a link back to this post. Thank you for joining the linky party!

I am not certain what has changed in WordPress or LinkyTools that is causing the linky party to disappear, I will figure it out tho. You should be able to see it now.

    This month Island Batik teamed up with Funky Friends Factory to challenge the Island Batik Ambassadors. We were allowed to choose a pattern for the softie and I chose Crocodile Steve. This has been both fun and challenging. Challenging because there are a lot of curved pieces in this pattern and fun because it brought back happy times of my son growing up while stitching.

  1. How do you add brown or gold coloring to your homemade paint, Denise? I’m interested in seeing these walls. Thanks for featuring my baby quilt from last week.
    Sorry to say, I can’t see the link party this week, same as last week…

    1. I am not sure why you aren’t seeing it, I tested it by linking up a photo from my computer. Perhaps it’s time I contact linkytools to see what is going on. Thank you for letting me know, I will post more photos and more about the milk paint soon.
