Don’t let a dated brass thrift store find scare you away! Try this fun painted brass with patina technique to revive even the worst of home decor items.
This wall shelf was one of my discovered goodies, and the perfect size to prop some folded washcloths and a place to hang towels in our small bathroom.
The Pickling Wash paints work great on wood to give it an aged feel, but I have yet to try those myself.
But I already knew I loved the Folkart Milk paint but I wondered how it would work on this brass shelf.
So I began to layer on the brushed metal paint, and was very pleased with how it adhered to the brass. It acted much like a primer would, and gave me a nice dry abrasive surface to layer the milk paint on.
