Bronze Tissue Paper

In this bathroom for a repeat client, I applied tissue paper on the walls, then glazed it using a bronze metallic paint. It is difficult to see just how beautiful this finish is in the photos...so you'll have to take my word for it. (that and this is the second room in her house I've done this finish in!) The metallic color is wonderful because it gives just the right amount of sheen to the walls.

This technique is applicable in almost every room, although I'd shy away from using it in a kitchen (spills/grease could get caught in the "crinkles"). I have done this in bedrooms, dens, dining rooms, and in a LOT of bathrooms. I've done this on many ceilings, too.
