Lime Paint — Tricky, Expensive & Absolutely Beautiful

Lime Paint for Furniture — Tricky, Expensive & Absolutely BeautifulLime paint can create depth, movement and an aged, almost stone-like finish that ordinary furniture paint simply can’t duplicate. It can also be expensive, tricky to apply and nearly impossible to spot-repair—which makes it a questionable choice for beginners or flippers who need to complete and sell furniture quickly.In this episode, Val shares what she learned while using Pure & Original Fresco lime paint on a serving cart and an oak entertainment center. Both pieces still live in her home nearly nine years later. She also explains the differences between lime paint, limewash and lime plaster; when this specialty finish might make sense for a high-end furniture artist; and why our own homes deserve to display some of the art we create.→ Explore Val’s furniture-flipping resources, guidance and community at ValFrania.com.→ See the complete Soft Taupe server transformation and step-by-step process on Love My DIY Home.
