Creating the Crackle

Do you mean with crackle paint? I used crackle paint with a project here and loved how it turned out: https://happydealhappyday.com/pinecone-topiary-white-crackle-texture-paint/

I have used both school glue & Hyde glue methods.

Hyde glue you let dry overnight & then paint.

School glue you paint on top of it, wet.

Both methods you cannot overwork the paint and you must work fast

There is a paint that you apply to surface of your cabinet to achieve that effect .Check that pin https://www.pinterest.com/pin/23573598028832828/
