Steps for Painting Fall Decor
STEP 1
PREP
Start by ensuring each sign is dust and dirt free. You might even want to useΒ TSPΒ if there were price stickers that had to be removed.
STEP 2
COLOUR BLENDING
If creating custom colour blends β always encouraged β mix up some test batches before applying. Our sample sizes are perfect for this, especially if youβre trying our new colours. We recommend blending on a flat surface or in a paint tray.
We recommend any of the shades in ourΒ Septemberβs fall colour storyΒ orΒ Octoberβs colour story
STEP 3
PAINTING
Using a brush, paint each side of the words before using a fine-angled brush to get all the nooks and crannies, as well as the sides of the text.
Try one of our beautiful new Staalmeester Artist brushes for finely detailed areas. Repeat the process with as many word signs and colours as youβve got, and then style them in your home!
