But, I do think that by next weekend when I have more time to work on it, I really will love it. There’s still entirely too much pink and cream. Perhaps I’ll try a whitewash over some of them to create a little more variation.Īt this point, I can’t really say that I love it yet. From there, I’ll decide if I need to try any additional techniques to the stone itself. Additionally, the grout looks really pink now that the stones are gray. It’s currently the same cream color I’ve despised in all our other rooms. The board and batten as well as the mantel need a fresh coat of white paint. At this point, the whole area looks pink to me. But here’s a little before and after before we get to all the steps. Some of the natural variations in the stone still come through with this 50/50 mix. I honestly would have done even more water, but it was already really messy and wet to apply. I used a 50/50 mixture of tap water and the paint to create more of the “washed” effect so that it didn’t all look like a flat, painted surface. This Country Gray Chalked Paint is very similar.
