Antiqued Leather Faux


This was my first attempt at any faux, of course this is my own bathroom. Its antiqued leather look basic base with glaze that was stippled.
This was the most work I have ever done painting I could not imagine doing this to a large room. My arms felt like wet noodles after this. Took 2 days to faux 3 days total to complete.

Very nice! Got a tad bit of bleed through on the top but overall... great job smoke!
