I want to do a faux paint on my walls in my living area and the ceiling height is 20ft. I like the leathered or venetian plaster look. I am going after the Tuscany theme in my house.The walls are huge and I am planning on borrowing scaffolding from my friends.

look for do it yourself book techniques because you need visual not only instructions, there is something called sponging, draging, cloud, etc you muat seee it.. for example :- Applying a base color? A Faux glazing color combination is simply a base color painted onto your surface with a glaze color(s) applied over it. This combination gives you the faux finished appearance. You may use your existing base color if the surface is sound and the sheen is either Eggshell, Satin or Semi-Gloss Enamel. If you are going to change your base color, refer to the Project Organizer - Interior Painting for project assistance and advice. Step 1.Using a bucket, pour one part of Behr Premium Plus Paint (One Quart) and 4-parts of the Behr Faux Glaze (One Gallon) together. This mixture will generally cover approximately 400 sq. ft. TIPFor a more see-through or transparent look, add extra faux glaze to the mixture. For a denser or more opaque glaze color, add more paint to the mixture. Step 2.Using a stir stick, thoroughly blend the mixture together to an even color consistency. TIPWe recommend you use a practice board to preview your technique and color combination before beginning your project. Step 3.Dip a water-dampened sea sponge into the glaze color or brush the glaze color onto the sea sponge. TIPBlot excess glaze color onto a clean rag. Step 4.Starting in a corner, apply the glaze color by blotting/pouncing the sponge onto the surface until the desired affect is achieved. TIPTurning or rotating the sponge will create a random look. Do not squeeze the sponge or push down too hard onto the surface. Step 5.Re-apply the glaze color onto the sponge as necessary. Step 6.Continue applying the technique, blending the completed area into the newest section to avoid distinct, overlapping lines. Always maintain a wet edge as you work across the surface. TIPTo achieve a consistent look in tight areas and corners, cut a smaller piece of the applicator to apply the glaze color. Step 7.Continue until the surface is complete. TIPView the wall periodically to assure an even look is being created. Finished Look Base Color: Mesa Tan FF42-1 Glaze Color: Crowning Glory FF42-2 .
