Layers of Sand Faux
Finish
The laid-back lifestyle enjoying days on the beach is one of the many reasons people choose to live here in beautiful SW Florida. Even if their days aren’t always literally on the beach, the beach still influences their lifestyle and home décor. (I’ve never taken an official count but I’m pretty sure every home here has at least one shell in it somewhere). Today’s modern soft natural aesthetic works perfectly for those wanting the gentle shades of sand and whisper grey in their home to bring the beach indoors. And that’s exactly what this faux finish does for this primary bath.
The goal was to have the room bright white and airy while keeping in mind that the original tile would remain. The base color is Sherwin Williams 7005.
Two shades of creamy/sand color were layered on in a mock watercolor effect. Here I used Sherwin Williams SW6099 Sand Dollar and SW 6106 Kilim Beige.
The last step was to
periodically streak in Silver metallic.
The overall effect is
similar to layers of sand you see in glass jars and absolutely perfect for the
home that has soft neutrals all through out
