How do I make my own wood icing?
I have been experimenting with stencils and have found that Texture Paste by "artEXTRAVAGANCE" really works well and looks spectacular, but is a bit expensive to use it as much as I'd like. Can I make my own? I assume I would have to have very fine sand, but where do I find the right kind, and how much do I use. Or is there a lot more to it than just adding sand to paint? Thanks to everyone for the really wonderful ideas I have gotten from so many of you.

Others have used inexpensive joint compound with stencils. I have not tried this yet but it looks so nice!
How about drywall compound. That's what a lot of others use.
