Decorative Paint Ideas for Your Rooms

by Kamdhenu Paints Paints Manufacturers India

When it comes to painting your house, especially the rooms, you have many options to choose from decorative paints India. Although, these paints are a tad more expensive than the traditional paints, they offer you an experience which goes beyond just “nice”. The decorative paints are known to yield a rich look and consistent results. Here are some decorative paint ideas that you can consider:

1.      Crackle Paint

Crackle decorative painting brings you an aged, distressed, and rustic appearance. The crackle medium works by causing the overlaying paint to crack as lines and fissures develop. This is then covered by a layer of topcoat. The upper layer spreads and cracks allowing the base colour to come out in contrast. These days, you will be able to find crackle paints which do not require a medium to bring this effect. The crackle decorative painting technique is best for furniture creating a shabby chic and cottage style décor for your living and bedrooms. Make sure that you apply thin layers of the paint in order to get a fine effect.

2.      Metallic Paint

Metallic paints are perfect to highlight a dramatic and glamorous look. Metallic paints can be used in combination with a freehand-painted design or with stencil designs to balance. Metallic emulsion paint is glossy and can withstand wear and tear and is perfect for rooms which have limited natural light. Metallic paints reflect light thereby allowing the room to appear bright. If you are considering metallic paints, make sure that you use them on well-prepared surfaces. Use a sprayer or soft roller while applying them to avoid brush marks.

3.       Stone Paint

Stone paints are a more dramatic version than stencils and are often rough in texture. Stone paints can mimic marble touch, granite, or other finishes. In order to use a stone paint, you will need faux colour paint as a base colour, which is then layered with a glaze. This can be simply rolled or sprayed upon. Alternatively, if you are looking for a textured stone look, you can use a foam stamp to get the right design upon the glaze. Although, the selection of colours is limited, stone paints can be used in combination with faux techniques for effects including a stucco effect.

4.      Suede Paints

You can easily find suede paints with the decorative paints manufacturers in India. These paints offer a realistic texture and soft touch to your walls. You can go for a Tuscan-inspired room to feel that old elegance or opt for a Mediterranean room. Alternatively, suede paints can be used for an elegant and glamorous appeal in your bedroom and living room. Suede paints usually require two coats, one as a base colour, and the additional coat after the base coat dries. Apply the suede paint in a six-inch ‘X’ pattern for a textured look.

5.      DIY Textured Paints

Alternatively, you can create your textured paints. For instance, you can add some clean sand to the paint to create textured walls. Make sure that you keep stirring the paint while applying to prevent it from settling. You can also try rag rolling, which is a style used in traditional rooms. After applying the first coat of paint, use a rug to apply a lighter glaze or a darker glaze as needed. The best part of the rag rolling is that you cannot go wrong. Go ahead and have some by rolling the rug in different directions. Likewise is the case with sponging. This decorative paint technique is best for creating overlapping patterns and can blend in with many styles. All you need for the sponging technique is a good sponge roller.
