- Clean floor thoroughly. Remove all dust and particles.
- Measure out your faux rug first and tape off.
- Start outlining cobblestones in neutral paint colors. Be sure to keep stone shapes varied but similar in size.
- Paint your grout or moss (the space in between the cobblestones) with American Accents® Satin Finishes.
- Take one stone at a time. Start with a medium toned color using Rust-Oleum® Painter's® Touch Ultra Cover Multi-Purpose Satin Brush-On in Espresso. When paint is still tacky, add your darker shades (of same color) around the edges of the stone using Rust-Oleum® Painter's® Touch Ultra Cover Multi-Purpose Gloss Brush-On in Navy Blue. Then use a lighter shade towards the center of your stone for a highlight. Blend the colors together.
- Add a small beetle, butterfly, flower or leaf as a fun finish. Be sure to leave a shadow behind for a true faux effect.
- Use Rust-Oleum® Painter's® Touch Ultra cover Multi-Purpose Paint Clear Brush for long-lasting protection and durability.
