Reviving the old! 🕯️ We found this ceramic candle holder at a second-hand store. We loved the shape but the finish needed a little makeover. Using our Fine Stone plaster and paints, we created a simple faux stone effect. Now the once-glossy finish is the perfect blend of texture and chic.

Our final tinted Scumble technique is a fan favorite! Tinted Scumble with white paint is great for adding subtle highlights or achieving whitewash paint effects with more control.

Thanks for following along with our tinted Scumble techniques mini-series. Let us know in the comments which is your favorite!

Scumble is one of our most versatile effect mediums. Two of the most frequently asked questions we get about Scumble are, “what is it and how do I use it?”

Scumble can be used as an extender or a tintable glaze medium!

We thought it would be fun to create a short series of quick how-to videos that highlight different ways to tint Scumble for various effects!

The sample boards have been painted with a matte chalk style paint in a creamy color. We added an applique to each board to showcase how glaze effects can accentuate details.

For each technique, we’re using a 3:1 mixture (3 parts Scumble + 1 part Tint Source).

Our first technique: Tinting with Pigment Powder
