I’ve always loved the depth and movement of limewash, so I decided to experiment with leftover paint from Ava’s old room back in Illinois. 🤍
I diluted the paint with water and applied it in imperfect layers—starting with a rag before realizing that an old sock was much easier to blend with, especially on our textured walls. I added a second coat for more dimension and used a wide scraper along the ceiling edge to keep the line clean.
It isn’t true limewash, but I love how much character this limewash-inspired effect gave her room here in Texas.
Would you try this with leftover paint?
