Want to see my (house) paint work?

[PowerTube]

Okay, I moved into a new house back last January and decided to spiff it up a bit. So, I wanted to try my hand at faux finishing.

Anyway.....

This is the coat closet as you walk in the front door:


I decided to do the same in my boys' room, but with a twist:


I cleared around the gas tank and realized that it needed a new paint job, so...


At the end of the hallway:


The front porch was raw concrete, so....


Anyway, just wanted to share!

Pretty nice handy work there. I love your boys room.

How did you do the bricks?

Thanks. The "bricks" were just a matter of painting the steps a grungy white first, then taping off the groutline pattern, then sponge painting the rest in a faded reddish color.
