Here are some ideas on how you can use faux finish and decorative painting for the holidays.

1) Faux painting a piece of furniture can turn it into something that is gift-worthy. Spend a few dollar and a little time, and give something that looks like you have spent hundreds.

2) Enhance your home before guests arrive. Your mother-in-law snubbed her nose at your choice of paint colors when you built your house. Now it's time to show her! Blow her mind and set her on her fannie by putting a faux finish on your dining room walls, or entrance ceiling.

These are just a few things to consider. As always, when doing faux finish remember - It's just paint! For more information check out our website at www.mojofaux.com.

Faux finish is an excellent way to change the overall look of your home. While some people hire a faux finisher out there, there is a growing number of people learning the tricks of the trade. The options for learning are numerous. Anything from DVDs, live classes, trade schools, and books can be found simply by doing a Google search. When considering training options there are a few things to consider.

1) What experience do the trainers have?
2) How much will my investment be? Include things like hotel stays, food, gas, supplies, etc.
3) Does the school have any kind of follow up help if I need it?

Thse are only a few of the things to think about. For more information on faux finish and to see some amazing pictures email me at thefauxguy@gmail.come or check us out at www.mojofaux.com.
