Painted Grout ?? !!!

With Bluestone House™ Chalky or Silky Patina ...

Yes You Can !!


Have you ever looked at your grout in either your kitchen, bathroom or laundry room and thought it needed a change...but how??

Well that is exactly what one our Fabulous Painta's thought too?

She actually had two different colours of grout in between the tiles. So instead of trying to change the grout or the tile, she decided to paint it using True Black Silky Patina!

Yup you read that right! She painted her grout ! 
using our Silky Patina with one coat! 
Using a thin brush to get in the small grout lines, the True Black Patina covered beautifully. Once dry with a small sharp razor blade scrapped the excess paint off the tile......voila ! Done !

Before...

During...



UH-MAZ-ING  !!!

What a fantastic way to freshen up, 
update or  just change it up !!!
Good Job Patina Girl !!!

YES, I Painted My Fence !!!

This blog is from one of our
Fabulous Patinas Painters...


"I started with the gate...
Last summer, I decided to paint the gate to my yard. I loved the colour "Tuscan Teal" Chalky Patina. So I just did it !

Did you know that Bluestone House Chalky Patina is an indoor/outdoor paint !!!!
  
It Turned out Fabulous !
 

BTW these pics, above, are from this summer and it looks the same as the day I painted it !!!
So...
I decided to paint the entire backyard fence!
Thankful my hubby was on board.
We all pitched in, even my kids !

This old backyard fence was not in good condition from the weather and wear from the snow, rain and sun. This backyard gets pretty much full sun all day. It began to look unpleasant. My husband tried to pressure wash but it made it look even worse.

Here are some before pictures.
 

 

Here you can see how its discoloured.
 

And not looking so great.

 

Let's talk about the prep work!
Well there isn't any!
Yup that's right, you read that right!
What you need is...

•Colour choice of Chalky Patina 

•Bluestone House fabulous paint brushes

And begin painting! This fence was only given one coat of chalky patina in "Driftwood".
 

Now let's see the progress! 






  Love how all the trees and greenery just pops out now!


 What a beautiful space. 
It makes the backyard look even bigger!

Here is a nice night time view, are you wondering if the shed door is painted with Bluestone House Patina Paint ??

Stay tuned for an upcoming blog.....

I am so Happy with my new fence !!
Thank you Bluestone House !!! "
