Faux
Fun 2: Before & After color. 70 min. with booklet
Following up on
her first Faux Fun video (Video Reviews L.J. 6/15/92), Barbara Wurden
shows how to transform every room in the house - even an exercise
room - from boring to beautiful with simple decorative painting
techniques. Wurden uses water-based glaze for a transparent and
flexible mixture necessary to manipulate paint on the wall. Water-stain
glazing, glazing with "angel" prints, rag whipping, fan textureng
using a dry wall knife, cross-hatching, abstract brushing, and antique
glazing and texturing are demonstrated. The video shows the step-by-step
process to create a distresed finish for furniture as well. The
eye-deceiving room and furniture makeovers are fun; the instruction
is clear and highly watchable. A pamphlet providing definitions
and tips is included. A popular addition to general home decor and
crafts collections. - Mary Soete, San Diego P.L.
