How to Paint Almost Anything From Cheap to Chic!

How to Paint Almost Anything from Cheap to Chic!

With the current economy, most people are careful with their spending at home. So what are you to do when you are a bit afraid to spend money but want to live in comfort and style at home? Answer – think creatively:


Use what you have at home in a “different way” (new furniture placement)
Filter your spending (do you really Want? Love? Need? an item)
Hire an interior decorator to help you save money, time, and avoid mistakes
Think Cheap to Chic with PAINT!

I have said it before and I will say it again, “paint” is the most economical way to transform your home to “feel” and “look” different. The above picture is of one of my designs. My client wanted her small studio apartment to feel large, airy, and with a design style that represented her – in an economical way of course. So, my secret weapon to the r-e-s-c-u-e: “paint”!

Ladies – remember how you feel when you put on makeup that makes you look more gorgeous than you already are? That’s how a new fresh coat of paint feels (gorgeous home)!

Fellas – remember how you feel when your favorite team won a game even though you are not even a player in the game? That’s how a new fresh coat of paint feels (winner at home)!

Did you know that you could paint almost anything in your home? Yes, anything! Here’s a list of a variety of things that you can use as a guide to go from cheap to chic using the secret wand – paint:

PAINT WALLS:

Duh! Okay, that was a no brainer! However, be creative when painting your walls – mask the walls with painters tape to make geometric (chic!) designs, or you can even use plates of different sizes to outline circles with a pencil to paint on your walls. There are also sassy wall paints that provide the unexpected; such as, magnetic paint, chalkboard paint, suede look, linen fabric look.

Extra tip: when using painter’s tape seal the tape lines with clear glaze to get an added protection against jagged lines.

PAINT FABRICS:

Most of the time we try our best NOT to get stains or paint on our fabrics, but with a “cheap to chic” mission in mind turn drab to fab by painting your fabrics.

How:   Paint toss pillows, shower curtains, window curtains, cabinet skirts by using textile paint (found at most craft stores). Make sure you follow the curing time for the paint to dry; and wala – you have your very own customized chic design!

PAINTING CERAMIC TILES:

Yes, you read correctly – you can paint ceramic tiles in your bathroom. So if you currently have scary looking tiles that scream “puke color” every time you see it, then economically transform your tile color from blah to wow!

What you will need: 150 grit sandpaper, paintbrush, trisodium phosphat cleanser, boning/ceramic primer and your favorite color of paint in latex.

PAINT LAMINATED FURNITURE:

Do you have a laminated bookcase that is older than books published in 1960s? Then bring it back to life with paint.

How:  Sand to scuff away the gloss, use a paint roller (using a brush will leave streak marks), prime, paint using your fabulously looking new paint color, and seal the color using polyurethane.

So, take a close look at your furniture, which are laminated (aka: easily paintable)? Most drawers are usually laminated. Hmmm, perhaps you can paint each drawer a different color to match the color scheme within your room. Simple! Impactful! 

Designer tip: instead of using a rag to clean the dust after sanding, use a tack (a sticky) cloth.

PAINT GLASS:

Do you have glass vases hidden away because they do not match your décor? Well, bring them out to play! Then, as a hungry person carries a fork and spoon in hands, get your paint and brush in hands. Customizes clear vases, bowls, and even plates creatively.

How: you can easily get glass paint at your local craft store. Make sure you seal the paint with varnish.

Tip:  if you have a clear glass table, create a design under the glass and let your personality shine through. Perhaps you can even stencil words under the table – “Live! Love! Laugh!” is one of my favorite quotes.

PAINT WOOD FLOORS:

That’s right, you can even paint your wood floors. If you have a staircase made of wood, try stenciling a design on every step or painting a carpet design onto it. Can’t afford an area rug to separate your space within a room? Then, paint an area rug with a design that you love.

How:   A little prep work goes a long way – make sure that no nails are loose, sand floors, remove dust and /or wax buildup, clean, coat with stain blocking primer, then paint away in the direction of the grain. For durability, consider applying clear polyurethane.

Remember, turn cheap can be chic and live in luxurious comfort within your home and within your “self”.

The Modern Art Of Face Makeup

June 30, 2010 · Posted in Makeup Brushes Set · Comment 

Beautifying one`s own self has been the urge of both the sexes since civilization began. Face makeup has always been the most vital part of make over. To create an impression on others, women especially have done various types of face makeup to enhance the look. The style of makeup has undergone changes over the centuries but certain basic rules do remain the same.

There are certain steps to follow to do a good job with the makeup kit. The first step is to cleanse the face well with a cleanser so that excess oil and dirt can be removed. The makeup will set well if this is done. Before applying the base the face should be massaged well with a moisturizer. This will eliminate all chances of dryness.

For a proper face makeup the shape of the face must be taken into account first. A strong jaw line must be done in a way to conceal portion of the jaw with the help of the foundation. The foundation or the base of the face makeup must be carefully selected. This will depend on the complexion of the person. A lighter shade must be used for a person with a bright skin tone. It is important to see that the foundation is well blended with the skin. This is easily done with a bit of water added to the base.

The base must be left to dry for a while. For the summers you can apply a cold compression with ice over the face. This will set the makeup well. For the pimple prone face a water based foundation would be the most appropriate. The foundation must be applied in dots all over the face and then blended. The area under the eye must be treated softly so that it may not leave wrinkles.

The jutting jaws must be colored a shade darker to make them look even. For the face that is round use dark shades on the sides to give a narrow effect. The idea is to hide the defects and highlight the plus points of the face. The next step is to powder the face. There are different shades available. It is best to select the shade that is closest to the skin tone. It is important that the powder blends well with the skin just as the foundation does.

The eyes are the next vital aspects of a face makeup. Here again the shape of the eyes is important. The eye shadow that is applied on the upper eyelids should be a shade that suites the skin as well as the time of the day. Usually a strong makeup at night is appropriate while during the day the makeup is rather light.
The eye liner is used to out line the eyes giving them a prominent shape. For the eyes to look large a thin eye line is the best. For the opposite effect the liner could be a thicker line. This also lends the eyes a dramatic look.

The mascara is then applied over the eye lashes to make it appear longer. They definitely look richer and make the eyes seem bigger. The eye brow may be simply brushed or darkened with an eye brow pencil. The final touch comes with the rouge that lends the face its color and radiance. The rouge can be cream or powder. Soft touches of it to highlight or subdue the cheeks are needed. The art of face makeup needs long practice to bring perfection. The best makeup is done in natural light.

Fake MAC Makeup Brush Set Review

June 30, 2010 · Posted in Makeup Brush Set · 4 Comments 


Hey guys! I recommend getting fake MAC brush sets from Ebay but make sure the seller is popular and they have good ratings. You will be seeing these brushes in action in future makeup tutorials! My brushes aren’t available on e-bay anymore because the seller unlisted them but the seller does have an e-bay store and she/he is selling some other brush sets. Seller’s Store: bit.ly Please rate, comment, and subscribe! xD
