Stucco Walls!


Many of you asked about how I made the
stucco walls.
I used Gesso...if you mix it with sand it will
be much more the structure of concrete.
I used dirty water to make the walls look old.
Much of my inspiration I get from Léa Frisoni'
book...... Hope I answered your questions?

    Thanks for the info on the stucco walls. I DID wonder, but didn't ask!

    I have the Lea Frisoni book so will have another look at that. Just a pity I don't have another property to try it on.

    Thanks!! I was one who asked :-) One more question though.... is it just sand you get at a craft store?

    El estuco te ha quedado genial. Y ya ves con gesso que yo lo uso mucho en la universidad. Buena idea.
    Por cierto, te tengo envidia por tener el libro.
    Besujis!!!

    That answered question a little. However, it would be nice if you’ll share with us the step-by-step, if you haven’t posted about it already. Also, it would be wonderful if we can get a closer look to your stucco walls. Thanks for the tips!
