WT850 - Go Faux (6/24/21)
Hello everyone...Cathy here with this week's Ways to Use It Challenge .
Today we are going to "Go Faux!" There are so many ways to make something look real...in fact, when I typed "Faux" into the search box on the Tutorial page of SCS, 49 results appeared. Here are just a few you may not have tried yet, but feel free to do your own search if none of these appeal to you.
Faux Tile Backsplash
Faux Diecut Inlay
Faux Patina
Faux Letterpress
Faux Barn Board
Color Wash Faux Bleach
Faux Tearing
Faux Quilt Candle
These are just a few...can't wait to see all the faux projects in the gallery!
Check the thumbnails below to see more samples for your inspiration created by Lisa, Sabrina, Jayne and Toni!
Here's a link to the
WT850 Go Faux Gallery .

Cathy I had fun on this one. I used the tile backsplash technique. You can't see it very well in the picture, but it is there.
