Paint Technique: Softly Aged Walls

paint (base coat: Antique White 6119 in flat finish) – Sherwin-Williams
divided paint tray with plastic liners
divided paint roller
glaze (White and Tan) – Sherwin-Williams
blue painter's tape
sea sponge

Steps:

1. Tape-off where needed and apply the base coat. Let dry.
2. Pour one color of glaze into each side of the tray; load the roller with paint, and then apply it to the wall in a random fashion and repeat until the wall is covered.
3. For areas where the roller won't reach, use a small piece of a sea sponge dipped in both colors to get close to the ceiling, trim and corners.
4. Once a wall is complete, stand back to check the pattern and make adjustments as necessary.
