How can I paint my basement concrete floor to look like hardwood?

Should I use a stencil for a hardwood floor look on my concrete basement floor or does anyone have a technique for a non artistic DIYer?

I just painted a table with a wood graining tool. It was really easy to do and I have seen people use this technique on floors and it looks fantastic. I 'm no pro either so if I can do it - so can you :) http://www.hometalk.com/diy/paint/furniture/faux-wood-grain-table-30059323 You could use this idea but use brown concrete paint to get the colors you want. Here is a link to another Hometalker who has done it to their floor - http://www.hometalk.com/diy/floors-ceilings/turning-concrete-floors-into-faux-wood-with-paint-29331771 - good luck
