To create: Chose three paint colors in a light, medium, and darker shade that hail from the same
color family. I choseValspar’s Ultra Green (light), Beach Blanket (medium), and Sea Treasure (dark).
color family. I choseValspar’s Ultra Green (light), Beach Blanket (medium), and Sea Treasure (dark).
STEP 1: Trim wall with painter’s tape and use a roller to paint entire wall the lightest hue. STEP 2:
Paint a bottom panel with the darkest hue. STEP 3: Mix your medium and dark shade together to
create the 2nd darkest color and paint a section. Next, move up on the wall and paint the 3rd
section the middle color only. STEP 4: Blend the colors together using a smaller paint brush
that is DRY, until areas and lines bleed together. You may need to touch up with mixed paint
as you go, as it takes on an amazing ombré effect.
