Diy Chalk Paint Plaster Of Paris

Diy Chalk Paint Plaster Of Paris. So if you are painting a large piece of furniture the costs really add up, also the great thing with chalk paint is you don’t have to prime! Now you have homemade chalk paint for about $10.00!

To start making chalk paint, mix a 1/2 cup of plaster of paris with a 1/2 cup of warm water until it dissolves. Apply the paint with a paint brush. I made a smooth paste with the plaster of paris and water before mixing it into the paint.

We happened to have a bunch left over after we made some of these mosaic coasters.

1 cup of any latex paint will do. Mix until is become a paste. Mix 1/3 cup of plaster of paris with 1/3 cup of room temperature water. Pour about 1/2 cup paint into the paste.
