Step One: Apply two coats of Pratt and Lambert Accolade Velvet Finish tinted to #2081 Ginger Whip. Let paint dry for several hours.

Step Two: Most any glaze or latex varnish can be used to do this technique, including Ralph Lauren Technique Glaze, Pratt and Lambert Latex Glaze, Pratt and Lambert Oil Glaze, Polyvine Scumble and Polyvine Classic Colour Effects. Mix 3 parts glaze with 1 part paint. For a more subtle finish, add more glaze to the mixture. In this case, we have used Accolade Velvet #2082 Buccaneer and Accolade Velvet #2080 Naples Cream.

Step Three: Pour your glaze mixture into a shallow container (you won't need much for this technique). Dip one side of a moistened sponge into the mixture. Blot excess glaze onto a piece of cardboard. Now dab softly on the wall surface (try to avoid smearing the paint). It is best to turn your sponge each time you dab the wall. This makes the pattern you are creating more random. If you are planning on using two colors of glaze, cover about three quarters of the wall with this color. (If you work with a friend, remember that everyone's technique is somewhat different. Consider having each person do one colour for consistency).

Step Four: Repeat step three using your second colour. (Remember to stand back to make sure your pattern is even).
