Blending paint colours on furniture can elevate your DIY project, creating a unique and personalised finish. To begin, select your base colours; complementary shades often work best. Prepare your furniture by ensuring the surface is clean and free from any previous finishes.
Start by applying your base coat evenly with a paintbrush or roller, allowing it to dry thoroughly. Once the base layer is set, take a second, contrasting colour and use a smaller brush or a sponge to add highlights or accents. For a seamless blend, lightly feather the edges where the two colours meet, using a clean, dry brush to blend them together gently.
Another technique involves wet blending, where you apply a wash of a lighter or darker shade directly onto wet paint. This creates a soft gradient effect. Remember to work quickly, as the paint should still be workable. Finish with a clear sealant to protect your masterpiece. With patience and a bit of creativity, you can transform your furniture into a stunning focal point in your space.
