Hi friend, Happy Friday! I took a week off blogging while I visited family in Canada, and got my fill of cold weather but I'm back and ready to jump into some fun Spring DIYs! Today I'm sharing how to add a luxurious brushed suede look to any decorative item using paint!
Suede Paint
Yes, I said paint! DecoArt Suede paint is now available at Michaels! I was one of the lucky ones who got to try it out before it hit stores, and today I'm sharing some wood chargers that got a navy brushed suede look with the Midnight Blue paint! Keep reading and I'll share how I did it!
These are the colors of brushed suede paint that are available. Keep reading to find out how to win a jar of the Khaki paint!
Video Tutorial
I used this 12" bamboo wood plate that I bought at IKEA for this suede project, but use your imagination and get creative! You can give a brushed suede look to picture frames, knick knacks, wood trays, almost anything! Can you believe that I forgot to take a great before pic? This is the only one I have...without my face! So sorry! #badhairday 😊
