Do not be afraid of painting brick. I repeat... DO NOT be afraid of paint. I have thought about this project for about three years and finally took the plunge.
Behold my painted brick fireplace and white mantel.
I searched the below hashtags on Instagram and found my below favorites. They are both German Smear techniques. I was way to afraid too try that process.
I used a 50/50 solution of paint and water.
Before
The outside brick on our house is the same color. I think, I want the german smear technique on the outside of the house. A girl can dream, right?
I removed everything, taped and cleaned the brick. I just wiped down the brick with a wet rag.
Below you can see my "test" corner. That first brush stroke was so scary.
TIP: Old socks worked great to remove any drips or excess paint.
I painted the grout lines too. From a grey to the whitewash.
I sent the below picture to my decorators. (aka: daughters) and they all agreed to get rid of the all the solid white bricks. Yikes, was I too late, the first bricks were painted over an hour and half ago. Not to worry, a rub down with a wet sock worked wonders.
I AM IN LOVE WITH THE FINISHED PROJECT!!!
Before dark, old looking
The finished fireplace project. Swoon.
Bright, light and updated.
The grands saw this picture and said, "Lala, you made a bed for the skeleton!"
Project details
Annie Sloane - Old White paint $39
Had my brush
Had old socks
Had paper and tape
Total renovation $39.00
Like I said do NOT be afraid of painting brick.
That looks really, really great! You did a fantastic job. It is fun to see how much it changes the appearance of the whole room, isn't it, Lori? xo Diana
ReplyDeleteI can't believe how much it changed the whole room. Thanks for your sweet comments.
