Dry brushing technique (via thecreativityexchange).
Dry brushing is a painting technique in which a paint brush that is relatively dry, but still holds paint, is used. The resulting brush strokes have a characteristic scratchy look that lacks the smooth appearance that washes or blended paint commonly have. Dry brushing furniture makes it amazingly distressed, so if you want to achieve a relaxed shabby chic look, this rather easy technique is for you! You can dry brush any piece you’ve got and even walls or ceilings, that’s not difficult and won’t take much time.
