Here's detailed shot of the beautiful look I created with out using a brush and freezing my paint first.
I mixed two colors together to create this purple shade that reminded me of the ornamental kale plant that I saw at Home Depot.
I used one part Kissing Booth, and a tiny bit of Bohemian Blue...
Does this color remind you of the kale plant?

I LOVE the piece you did. I LOVE the colors! I LOVE the way you laugh at yourself! That is sooo me!! I especially love obsessing over a spot & having to redo it. I am restoring some exterior doors, finished, been paid, saw a spot right above the door knob, tried to fix and now having to redo the door inorder to blend! Oh well!! 😄 So glad I saw your post tonight! Smiling!!!

Frequently asked questions
Have a question about this project?
What is the point of putting the paint in the freezer?
If you didn't use a brush, what DID you use? You left out how you actually acheived the look. Interesting! I would also like to see a pic of the entire finished piece.
With the risk of being too matchy-matchy, do you think that mirror frame should be done in the same colors? I think you did a great job, loved the video, and you definitely have a unique style! Fun to watch
