AN EASY APPLICATION FOR FLAT SURFACES USING VINYL SPACKLING

Hi everyone! welcome were everyone is made to feel at home. How many have flat kitchen cabinets or  boring pieces of furniture? I have a simple treatment that will cost a few dollars and interest as well!  I have posted this project a few years back when I first discovered this unique application.

Before we get started you will need paints of your choice a small tube of vinyl spackling , a stencil of your choice , paint brushes, rags. tape  and a nice small scraper.

 ok lets get started first choose your stencil since I already did my upper cabinets with this a while back I chose the same design, so go ahead and tape your stencil in place
 Add small amount of spackling to the scraper and begin to fill in the design on the stencil taking care to move the scarper to all angles until the vinyl is evenly applied you may have to add some more onto the scraper but trust me with this application less is more so don't add too much the stencil should be filled in only to level the design
 once this is done just carefully pull the stencil off and begin another cabinet door
 It should look like this , Now you must let this dry well. It wouldn't hurt to take a run on some cardboard just so you get the hang of it. once it has dried you can paint it the same color as the piece of furniture or your choice let dry










 When all is dry take your original base coat color and sparingly run the brush gently over the dark paint not letting any of the light paint down in the crevices that's why I say use the paint sparingly don't saturate the brush just a little bit of the base paint at a time
 This is the top that I previously had done
It should look something like this when complete




I hope you will give this a try.....it can be done on any flat surface , signs, backs of chairs
