How do you paint plaster effect walls?

To achieve a plaster effect on walls, you can use a layering technique with chalk paint.

Here's a step-by-step guide:

1. Apply the Base Coat: Start by painting the entire wall with a base layer of Chalk Paint™ in Scandinavian Pink. Allow it to dry completely.

2. Dilute the Top Coat: Mix Chalk Paint™ in Paloma with water to create a diluted glaze. A 50:50 ratio is a good starting point, but adjust to your preference for varying opacity and character. More water will create a more translucent effect.

3. Apply the Diluted Top Coat: Apply sections of the diluted Paloma paint over the base coat in random areas. This creates the textured plaster effect.

4. Adjust as Needed: Experiment with the dilution ratio and application technique to achieve your desired plaster effect. You can add more layers of diluted paint to build depth and texture.
