There are now 3 types of finishes available on our
"antique" wood frames:
1. Antiqued--a process involving hand
painting with one color (either black, navy blue, sage green, barn red, sky
blue,
or ivory), sanding in appropriate
spots to give it that "worn" look, and then the application of an antiquing
agent in either brown or black to give it that "aged" look.
2. Distressed--a process where we paint a base coat and then dry brush a coat of a different color over the top--leaving the base to show through in parts.
3. Crackle--a process involving painting with a base coat (either brown or black depending), application of a crackling agent, and then hand painting with the top color (either white, ivory, brown, sage, mustard, or barn red). While the result is a nice "crackled" look, the paint doesn't flake off like it does with truly old crackling paint.
