Painting!

Ran into a lady at home depot who is opening a new salon and wanted to paint her space.  She wanted to do some effects to match her business card and had no idea how to do it.  She contracted us out and I loved it!  It's not every day someone asks you to paint their wall. ;)  It was extremely fun, and she happens to be a masseuse so yay for my massage coming up!

First I drew the design in pencil and then we masked it all off with blue tape.
 Next we sponged using a faux glaze mixture.
 This part was fun after taping for 2 and a half hours!
 Sam doing the high stuff-  we could barely reach all the way with that ladder.  Thanks honey! :)
 Tape off, and now I am filling in the design with the aqua color.

 Adding the detailing...
Wednesday morning and we are ready to paint again!  (Paint pants from my friend from work, they were loose haha.)
 After Embellishing the swirls.


 Two more tones on the swirls and some glitter and we are done! :))
 Sam was there the whole time and was very helpful- I don't know how I could have done it without him!  Here is the finished product! :)
