(If you want to see the bar backsplash I did, comment BAR and I’ll send it to you!)  Why not just use lime wash, you ask? 🤔 First, lime wash paint is wayyy more expensive that just regular latex paint.  Second, you have to be very cautious with lime wash not to get it on your skin because of the material, and I’m a messy painter 🧑‍🎨 😂. Honestly, it just seemed like too much work as I looked further and further into it and this seemed WAY EASIER and IT IS.

Catherine Ortega | Neutral + Organic Home Decor on Instagram: "The power of trim & paint is real 😮‍💨🤩

Thinking about lime wash painting your walls? This is your sign!

Not only does it add beautiful subtle texture but it is so much fun to paint vs regular painting!

If you know me I LOATHE painting. I’m too impatient & it has to be perfect. While limewash may be tedious the goal of it is to look imperfect! 

Would you limewash paint a room in your house?

Back to the drawing board I wasn’t giving up and discovered a way to get the effect with regular paint… here’s how  Prep, make sure the walls are clean dry and holes filled, you will need a big soft brush a painting tray, some foil and a couple of extra buckets/ tubs  Next select your paint, you need two different colours about 3 shades apart. I bought a tub of  @duluxuk Egyptian cotton poured half into a bucket and darkened it using a tester pot I already had of dulux coffee dust.
