Last week we created a new wall covering in our bedding section using Milk Paint on pine paneling. We did it in several steps to achieve a nice rustic look.
First, we stained all the pieces with Homestead House wood stain in the Sherwood brown colour.

Then we applied Hemp oil in some areas so the next layer wouldn't adhere to it, showing the previous finish.
That second layer was a mix of 2 Miss Mustard Seed milk paint colours (Ironstone & Grainsack). Once that was dry, we sanded lightly the areas that had Hemp oil.
After we painted spots as if they were natural mineral streaks with the colour Typewriter.
Again we put some Hemp oil, mostly where the knots were.
The final colour was a blend of Shutter Gray & Typewriter, painted uniformly and then again, we removed the paint where the oil was applied.

After we installed them, we put a protective/finishing coat with Furniture Wax.
The end result is just amazing, there's so much depth to it, the secret was those multi layers.
What I liked most in this project is how easy it is to work with Milk Paint, the drying time is so fast you can achieve so much in 1 day!
