Ceiling texture... first attempt.

DangerMouse · 11-10-2010, 07:21 PM

Here's a shot of a piece of scrap I practiced on.

(I made my own texture tool to play with.)

I think I can pull it off.... any comments? Tips?

That is similar to 'broken leather', - very cool look.

Here's the 'tool' I threw together from 1/2" cherry scraps.
I routed the edges round and then sanded and sprayed a clear finish on it to moisture-proof it.

Looks good
I've always liked the random "design" look

Is that Pillsbury or Betty Crocker cake frosting?

It looks great DM! Your ceilings will look beautiful when you're done.

That's a clever texturing tool too.
