Returning Corner Graphic

We used the same base color on the ceiling as the walls which makes a harmony in this kitchen finish. Shown here is transferring the graphic using a pounce drawing method of charcoal on the tiny holes of the drawing. This transfers the design and is then taped out for the glazing operation.

These photos show the pattern taped out and we used the base paint color to paint the edges so that if anything leaks under the tape, it will be the same color. No cleaning up lines this way. Then when dry, we stipple the glaze color inside the lines. This is the same glaze used for one of the glaze coats used on the walls.

The final product – Once the tape was removed there was hardly any clean up to do which is nice because taping out the lines is quite tedious work. But the end result is very rewarding.
