Faux Tile Fooled a Flooring Salesman!



This was a light gray Formica counter for a tanning salon. The colors used were the other colors already in the salon. I applied two coats of primer, then used latex and acrylic paint to paint the tile and grout lines.

After one coat of polyacrylic, I rolled the last coat on to give it the texture of tile. A few of the tiles I painted to look as if they were cracked and chipped.

Suitcases

I primed the old suitcase first, then
painted a basecoat of banana yellow.
I then glued lace all over it.






A brown glaze was ragged on, and
lightly buffed it with gold paste.
