"How-to" Use Decorative Rollers
Here is a fabulous tool for creating pattern and design in your decorative finishes! For additional information on working with the rollers, please check out my blog post: http://studiojrenee.com/2014/08/24/pattern-rollers-another-obsession/
These decorative pattern rollers are so much fun to work with - you can roll through just about any material and shown in the video.
Here is the finished sample from the Video - I used a tinted Metallic Plaster and troweled a sheer layer over the pattern that was created with the Simplicity roller.
They can be used on many different surfaces as seen in the photo above - creating furniture and cabinetry finishes - Crocodile Pattern roller and Artsy Leaf roller were used.
The Crocodile roller was used by Angie Stewart of RockStar Glam House to create this side table!
This finish was created using the Artsy Leaf roller and several different textures.
You will absolutely love working with these rollers - so many different possibilities - it's endless :) Check out my web site for the complete collection!

Zes9487408 on Dec 20, 2016Just one. Shipping cost seems way out of line for the size and weight of the roller.
-
Jennifer Weber Ferguson on Dec 21, 2016If the shipping comes in lower - we adjust before charging our customers - but most boxes are over 1 pound and run $12 to $13 for postage alone, we still need to cover the box, tape, label, etc. - you can see about ordering through my account on Amazon - https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=s...

Sharon Helbling Lawler on Jan 23, 2017With certain designs on the rollers, do you ever have to line up your design with the previous row so they match up?

Jennifer Weber Ferguson on Jan 31, 2017Sharon - sorry for my delay, just saw your message. Some of the designs have to be lined up to match, but most do not......I don't even try! :)

Frequently asked questions
Have a question about this project?
What was the process to use the artsy leaf roller and have it turn out like the tan/ cream leafy picture on your website? It states that you used multiple textures. Thank you!
What the product you used to achieve the pattern? Besides the roller?
I'm trying to do this project but am having difficulty determining what material you are used to create the design you are rolling out. You mention you go over the pattern with a metallic tinted plaster...what creates the plaster effect on the wall? Is there a product you recommend?
