Working with Botanical Retreat Wallpaper as a first timer
Wallpapering can often feel like a daunting task—too much effort and complexity, landing it firmly in the "too hard" basket. At least, that’s how we felt before starting this collaboration with Maggie Lam on the Botanical Retreat wallpaper.
But what if wallpapering could be simple? Imagine if the paper were tear-resistant, so you could handle it without worrying about rips. No more mixing, spraying, or brushing glue evenly. What if it was self-adhesive, making it as easy as peel and stick? No wrinkles, no scrunching—easier than covering a school book with contact paper (yes, mums, we know you understand). And what if someone who's never wallpapered before could do it on their first try?
We wanted all of these "what if's" to come true with this project—and that's exactly what we’ve achieved with Botanical Retreat. Check out this video featuring Dorophya, who had never wallpapered before, taking on the challenge for the very first time! This was our test to see if a first-timer could successfully use the Botanical Retreat wallpaper. Watch as she effortlessly wallpapers cabinet doors, showing just how simple it is to "peel and stick" and proving that wallpapering doesn’t have to be difficult, shattering the myth that wallpapering is hard. Here in this video she talks you through her experience...

Create Your Artisan Tray
The video below shows how you can create your own bespoke Artisan display tray using regular household items. This Video has been created as part of our Easter holiday inspo, but something like this is really for anytime of the year when you're feeling crafty or in the mood to create something beautiful for your home with the possibilities of Artisan Paints.
Great for holding candles, small decor, holding jewellery, candy or even potpourri. If you have an old medium sized picture frame, an old wine glass and some superglue then you just need pull out your Artisan Paints and Products and you are set to go.
The video shows an ornate frame being used but it will work even with a plain frame, , look for a thick wide frame. We chose not to paint the glass and rather the backboard of the frame. If your frame is thinner you can choose paint over the glass and give it the same treatment to make it appear more as one; which ever your prefer.
We hope this inspires you to see things differently with the possibilities of Artisan Paints and Products . Happy Watching and Happy Painting!

Creating an Artisan Pearl-Shell like finish
A full Tutorial on how to create an Artisan - Pearl shell like finish. This is a full step by step "walk and talk" through. Transforming an old knackered vase into a beautiful luminous Artisan Pearl-Shell like finish.
A complex looking finish broken down to allow you to easily create this finish at home using Artisan paints and products. The range of Artisan paints and products used will allow you to create this finish on pretty much any surface you like.
Once you have watched the video scroll down for some points to take note of from the video so grab yourself a cuppa press play and expand the screen for best viewing.
Things to take note of:
1: Ensure your colour washes are soft and subtle before applying the Luna Pearl.
2. This is a reflective finish and will adjust to it's environment based on lighting and the colours around it.
3. If you prefer a smoother Pearl-Shell like finish, sand down further (during the sanding process) to a level you like, but without removing the texture completely
3. If working on something with curves or round in shape, instead of Corrugated cardboard you can use a combination of your Staalmeester Spalter brush to do your semi circles and a little bit of corrugated cardboard to make it easier.
4. Creating texture with Corrugated Cardboard is ideal when creating this finish on flatter surfaces without details or curves, it enhances the end finish to reflect light and movement and be beautifully luminous.
5. When creating texture with the cardboard, keep overworking and spreading the paint out over your service in a semi circle motion, ensure the paint is not sitting on it too thick.
6. Let loose and have fun, follow the process, it all comes together after the second coat of Luna Pearl. So keep going until then and then decide whether you prefer to leave it at 2 coats or 3. This will all depend on the shape and detail of your piece.
7. Items you will need/ shown in Video:

Hand Made Gift Idea with Artisan Paints & Products
Show your love with beautiful handmade gifts with Artisan Paints and Products, create a precious gift with sentimental value, make it unique to the person you are gifting. Here's a quick and easy gift making idea for that special someone.
Take a look at the 5 min video and then we've listed some notes below for you to take note of afterwards to get you creating and making confidently with Artisan Paints and Products
2. With items where there are more curves, use water over the top of your napkin with your Staalmeester detail brush to flatten the napkin first before lacquering (as shown when we did the little bowl) applying napkins to curves like a bowl will create more creases and this step will allow you to flatten this all out as much as possible
3. The napkin we used in this video is 3 ply the less ply the more gentle you will have to be, therefore it is really important to use high quality brushes that are soft and gentle to make the whole thing a breeze, we've used our Staalmeester flat brush - 1 Inch and a must have of the Staalmeester detail brush, which has super soft bristles for flattening out fine lines.
4. In this video we have hair dried in between coats. It is always best to leave it dry naturally if you can. However if you want to hair dry, make sure you place it on warm when drying Premium Chalk Paint and move the hairdryer around constantly. When drying lacquer place the hair dryer on cool and move around constantly, avoid localising the hairdryer in one spot or you will create cracks.
5. When you are applying lacquer on over the Premium Chalk Paint ready to apply your napkin there is no need to rush, you have plenty of time, it's often best to leave for a couple of minutes to allow the lacquer to start "tacking up" before applying your napkin.
6. If the background of your napkin is a light colour, use a light Premium Chalk Paint colour as your base, if the background is dark, then use a dark Premium Chalk Paint colour as your base.
7. Always apply thin coats of Artisan Lacquer over the top, build it up rather than doing heavy thick coats. Depending on your napkin and the ply you may do anywhere from 3-4 coats.
8. Why Artisan Lacquer instead of traditional glues? Top coating with Artisan Lacquer creates a strong hardened surface in the sheen level that you want; it can take water splashes, be wiped and cleaned. Glue coatings although ok for decorative items will not withstand water pooling on the surface as often it will reactivate the glue, damage the surface and make the surface sticky again.
9. When painting the underside, if you can, use Velvet Luxe so you don't have to wax or lacquer, if using Premium Chalk Paint on the underside you will need to wax or lacquer to seal.
10: Metallic Edges: When using Artisan metallic glides over gloss lacquer, apply two coats/ glides for good density over that gloss surface or run your Artisan Paint up onto the edge then run your metallic glide over that edge for a seamless luxe finish
The technique shown in the video can be used on anything from decor to furniture. Try using this technique on fronts of drawers or even on chair frames as a feature.
Ideas for decor items you can use this on: Lamp bases, Vases, trays, coasters, boxes, even frames and mirrors to create something completely unique and bespoke

Artisan Variegated Wall technique © (video included)
NO SANDING OR PRIMING JUST PAINT WITH ARTISAN PREMIUM CHALK PAINT
Artisan Variegated wall technique : A video showing our Artisan Variegated wall technique that walks you through on how to create your owin bespoke decorative walls. A stunning finish creating a bespoke unique depth & life to your walls. Creating varied shades and sheen levels with subtle movement creating character and intrigue whilst being durable and robust & functional. The techniques and products shown in this clip is also suitable for outdoors as our Premium lacquers are outdoor grade. A sophisticated and visually complex finish created simply by using Artisan Paints & Products all low in VOC with little to no odour.
A video showing a quick summer Holiday project of a decorative paint finish of a wall that was previously painted in general house paint. Captured through a mobile phone of 1 hand painting and 1 hand recording, a raw impromptu footage giving you an insight of how to create this Artisan Variegated Wall finish.
A finish like this is completely bespoke and requires little to no Preparation as it uses our Premium Chalk Paint as a base. We've broken the steps down for you, simply just follow the steps, recipe/ process & you will get there... your version of a bespoke Artisan Variegated wall.
We chose to use an old (lint free) sheet, as from experience we find it's easier to control the effects, as it's absorbent, ensure you wrinkle it up in your hand before stamping on the wall.
Don't get caught up in detailing one area too much, keep standing back to look at your wall as whole, you can keep working at it until you are happy with the end result. Remember you are looking at a bare wall and that it will soften and settle when you place furniture back against it or when you dress it with art work, mirrors etc
Get the paint on first and ensure full coverage followed by the gloss lacquer, don't overthink too much when doing these two steps. Where you want to slow down and the take your time is the last step when you place your lacquered mixture on for detailing.
Note to self: The art of this finish is to be brave and free, and painting like a 4 year old brushing in all directions and letting loose and enjoying the process :-)
With the varied sheen levels in the finish, the wall will reflect, bounce light therefore will adjust and react to lighting
What we did:
Hand painted with texture in Ocean Trench Chalk Paint using a 2 inch flat brush (3 or 4 inch if your wall is bigger) On a wall of this size we used 1x 1litre chalk paint approx 250ml gloss lacquer and 250ml Matt Lacquer a couple of tablespoons of Carbon Black Chalk Paint
Gloss lacquer with your Staalmeester brush loading and making sure to spread it out thinly applying in a similar cross hatch style as the painting method to ensure you get into all the texture
Mix your lacquer solution with Matte Lacquer & Carbon Black, brush on and rag and stamp off with your old lint free sheet

Beachy & Rustic Paint Project
NO SANDING OR PRIMING JUST PAINT WITH ARTISAN PREMIUM CHALK PAINT
Hand painted for a coastal style home, this is a beautiful rustic character finish with texture utilising blues with slight hues of greens... painted straight over a previously painted and waxed piece creating a new look for a new year. A fun quick video running you through the steps. A project like this works with imperfections, the table in which was painted was an old half round with marks and dings, suitable for a finish like this where those imperfections will work in to help finish of the look.
What we did:
Hand painted with texture with Rubbed Sage Premium Chalk Paint
Dry brushed in selected areas with Artisan Metallic Creme in Classic Gold
Coloured waxed first in Deep Sapphire, by mixing Artisan Clear Wax and Deep Sapphire Premium Chalk Paint together, and then all over again in a Liberty coloured wax allowing the colours to mix and blend and soften

Create a farmhouse rustic wooden top
Create a farmhouse rustic wooden top with Vintro Luxury Paints. A great technique for creating a faux rustic wooden look and can be applied to transform any surface or table top without sanding or priming. Ideal if you have a damaged wooden top that you want to change or the colour & tone of your wooden top is too red or orange and you want to neutralise it to more of an earthy farmhouse look. This look pairs particularly well with painted legs in a light colour for contrast to create a country farmhouse style look. Everything you need and instructions are in the downloadable project series file below.
Extra Tips:
For the rustic texture, you must load up your paint onto your surface liberally & thickly brushing in all directions, leave to air & half dry, and then disturb it as the paint is drying and pull it around to create even more texture. You will need to repeat this step until you get a porridge like consistency. After you are happy with your texture leave to dry, it is important to lightly sand to remove any "loose" texture prior to sealing and decorating with wax.

Using Vintro Metallic Silver
What this Video Covers:
Vintro Silver Metallic Paint
Creating an Aged Silver Finish
Things to Note:
Vintro's Metallic Silver is a paint not a Chalk Paint
Apply Chalk Paint™ first as this will stick to pretty much any surface, one quick coat covering the entire surface is sufficient. You don't need to aim for full coverage.
You can leave Vintro Metallic Silver as it is after painting if you are after a bright silver finish
Vintro Metallic Silver will harden and cure and there is no need to seal
To age use a Vintro Coloured Wax over the top to stain the silver.

Ingredients
- Chalk Paint - 1ltr Dove
- Vintro Pure Bristle brush
- Chalk Paint -125ml Cloudburst
- Chalk Paint - 125ml Champagne Waltz
- 400ml Vintro Soft Wax
- Vintro stirring stick
- Lint free rags
Method
1. Prep - NONE with Vintro Chalk Paint™
2. Stir Vintro Chalk Paint™ really well (it is thick) through to a creamy consistency
3. 1st Coat - Add 5-10% water, brush liberally in every direction with a Vintro Pure bristle brush to create a textured paint finish- Leave to dry
4. 1/2 Coat - Touch up any areas still showing wood, make sure to water down this coat by about 10 - 15% before applying - Leave to dry
5. Mix Cloudburst paint and clear wax on flat surface; about 40% paint to 60% wax and brush out over surface in sections about an A3 in size, wipe back gently with little pressure with a lint free rag
6. Mix Champagne Waltz and wax like step 5 and apply same way
7. You can further pull back wax with clear wax or wire wool, and for extra water protection on hard wearing areas use Vintro Lacquer.
Note: To create a concrete look it is important to create texture in your paint finish to create texture. This texture is then brought out by the unique Vintro Coloured Waxes. Apply one coloured wax after the other, some of the colours may merge and mix a little and this is great as a Concrete look requires variation in colour. Tip: Brush the coloured wax out in all directions with little pressure, brush and spread the coloured wax thinly in sections. When wiping with lint free rag, use little to no pressure, almost like a "light dusting motion." After the wax has had about 30 mins air time you can then buff for a sheen. For surfaces like a dining table top or coffee table you may choose to finish with Vintro Matt Lacquer, this should be applied over the wax and would require a different finish preparation, talk to you retailer about this option.
