Aged Metal Tutorial

4/22/2013

I love finding easy tutorials on all types of things and sometimes it's worth sharing. You all know by now that I love things that look rusty, worn or previously loved.  Here is a simple TUTORIAL on how to take new metal and give it a nice worn look.  Who wants shiny and new unless it's a piece of jewelry?   Everything looks better when it has a great patina!  Craft store and discount stores often have cute little galvanized buckets, flower pots , all types of things for around the house that just need an aged look to feel more expensive and look a little richer. I've found fun stuff at the dollar store!!  If you try it on something I would love to hear how you did!  Here are a few photos for added inspiration for that "just right rusty" look.

    Who Am I?

      I've tried it all...hair stylist/faux painter/stay at home mom/jewelry artist/late in life college student/retail shop owner/design consultant/home stager.  Through it all my favorite things to do have been sharing DIY ideas, thrifting, and making something out of nothing.
       Combine some of those and you get the perfect storm; Owning, renovating, styling and hosting in an airbnb!  Chris and I put our own touches to the structure, then I thrift and build most of what I need to create a unique and special environment for guests to enjoy.  Being an Airbnb host is so fulfilling for me!   Connecting guests with the communities and all they have to offer  as well as creating great memories is just the best!
