Hey,

I've seen this trend called lime wash and it adds real texture to the walls ... I think I love it.

How easy is this, is there a special way to do it, a special paint or requires a specialist?




Thanks

@Lauren
i think you would be better to have colour washed walls.

lime-wash is a specialist paint mostly used on old properties…… that need the walls to be able to breath.

you can get a similar look with modern paints …… colour washing

Hey @ToolTalk1 ahhh this is very helpful thank you. Have you ever had to do many of these? I personally love it and think this will be the trend for 2022... what do you think?

Thanks @Tony Broughton! That's really helpful

Have either of you two thought about doing some short quick videos of your work like this that you could share on YouTube and the Community in the Help or Ideas and Inspo boards?

I am very camera shy. Plus my wrists couldn’t cope with all that hand action.🤣

Lime wash is ok in old cottage & houses but a lot of hard work .
personally think good choice of colours and the odd feature wall looks good maybe some wallpaper with the effect your looking for would be easier?

Excuses excuses Tone! @Tony Broughton 🤣🤣 No I am only joking - If you ever change your mind let me know, I'll ask for some tips and advice from our graphic design team.
@Sean I bet! It looks like it'll take forever to complete just one wall... perhaps the wallpaper effect would be easier! Thank you all
