Does anyone know how to make
painted woodwork or doors to
look like real wood?
Looking for some way to do
the older pieces of baseboard
in other parts of the house. I have an older home and have
replaced some baseboard with new
wood.
Hi, I am doing a home project and I want to make my kitchen walls (from the middle to ceiling) look like wood. Can you help me please? Thanks, Sherri TieDie71 AT gmail.com

I am a faux finisher and scenic artist by trade. If you email me I will tell you how to achieve this look. ldyharley79 @ yahoo.com (remove spaces) I faux finished this treasure chest for a show at Seaworld where I work. Very easy to do.

I saw this on an episode of Design on a Dime on HGTV. They painted closet doors brown and took a hair comb and combed the paint and then used their fingers to make knot holes.

They have "graining" tools at paint stores. Pieces of plastic that will leave a mark in the wood that looks like grain.
