New and Exciting Ideas for Decorative Paint Finishes

'More Recipes for Surfaces' picks up where 'Recipes for Surfaces' leaves off. This book tells you how to execute decorative paint finishes; offers distinctive "recipes" for treating your walls, floors, doors, and furniture; and provides detailed information on how to choose the colours that will help you achieve the effects you desire.

This guide offers clear instructions with full-colour illustrations, plus the specifics on the tools and materials you will need to implement each technique. The book serves as both an idea book and a handbook for decorating in the latest styles without investing a fortune in time or materials.

Part One gets you started with general information on paints and tools, project preparation, paint mixing, and surface preparation, as well as a useful glossary of terms. Part Two illustrates more than thirty original decorative painting "recipes" including marbling and metallic finishes (such as copper and bronze verdigris), textured surfaces (such as those obtained with corduroy and plastic wrap), and speciality finishes for small surfaces (such as decoupage, crackle glazing and stencilling). There are also recipes for a cloudy sky and other "trompe l'oeil" effects, and various stone finishes such as flagstone, granite and malachite.

Each technique is illustrated, described in detail and rated by degree of difficulty.
