Rustic Cabin Paint Technique for a Laminate or Wood Picture Frames
Creating an antique Rustic Cabin paint finish on Picture Frames on a budget is an easy project that can be accomplished in one weekend. To start this Rustic Cabin Picture Frame project you will need a few different materials from your local home improvement store as well as some time.
Those cheap plain fake wood Picture Frames are perfect for antiquing in to a Rustic Cabin look no matter where you live. If you have an old or outdated wood Picture Frame and just want to change the color or look, this Rustic Cabin paint Picture Frame resurfacing process is also good.
Here is a list of supplies you will need to start resurfacing your old Rustic Cabin Picture Frames:
· Primer
· Paint: Brown and Hunter Green or Brown and Barn Red
· Roller paint brushes
· A variety of 2", 3", or 4" paint brushes
· Wood stain
· Glaze
· Sandpaper
· Drop clothes
· Cheap, outdated, or plain Picture Frames
Now, start sanding the surface of your plain Picture Frames. Once you have the surface lightly sanded, you should wipe off the dust with a clean dry clothe. An old white t-shirt will work perfectly here.
Now, you are ready to put a coat of primer. If you are using a cheap fake wood Picture Frames this is a very important step. Your resurfacing Rustic Cabin painting technique will not stick to your surface if you don't sand and then prime your Picture Frames.
If you want a rough more Rustic Cabin look try putting the primer on with one of the 4" brushes. This will give texture and create the look of real wood. If you prefer the smoother look you can roll the paint on with any type of paint roller. A foam roller will create the smoothest surface.
Allow your primer to dry completely.
