Step-by-step

Step 1

Cover the work surface with the protective covering. Remove the glass from the frame. Ensure that you use a slow, steady movement whilst applying the spray (using horizontal and vertical strokes) and hold the can at a distance of approx. 25 cm.

Step 2

Leave the painted frame to dry thoroughly. To create a shabby chic look, lightly sand the edges of the picture frame until you achieve the desired distressed effect.
