This is a closeup picture of our “OSTRICH” finish. We had it in an award winning model home last year. Loved, loved, loved the look even tho’ it took us about 18 hours longer to finish that I anticipated! haha!
It’s difficult to see at a distance, but we did the finish on the walls in a study and people LOVED it.
Loved it so much in fact….that a friend just told me that a man she knows (did you follow all that?) saw the ostrich finish we did and told her “I know how the Magic Brush did it…….they SHOT AT THEIR WALLS WITH A BB GUN AND THEN FAUXED OVER IT”.
OMGosh what???????
And so….he shot bb’s at his basement walls and fauxed over it!!!!!!!
No, no, no! We did NOT shoot at our walls.
Just because I recently went out for some target practice does not mean I am incorporating that into our work!
(My dear friend Becky and I representin‘ the girlie girls at target practice!!!)
Haha! For some reason this story just tickles me!

That image has me laughing out loud!
I have to say sometimes I think it’s funny how we go about achieving some of the finishes we do but…..hearing how some people THINK we go about doing out work is even funnier! BB’s! crazy.
Tickled me too. Love this finish.
OMG, glaring difference between men and women, is it not? LOL Love it.

Lol this is a very funny story, how can you bb gun a wall and turn out that great.
That is a real innovative way of doing your wall. It may not work all the time but in this case it worked.
