Since we're always thinking about different wall treatments, I wanted to share one I've recently been trying to learn. It's creating bricks out of joint compound. I tried it in a small bath, behind the tub, and learned (I hope) from my mistakes. If you all don't mind looking at the stages the "bricks" went through, from white to painted, I would like to also show you a pic of my kitchen in my (vacation) mobile home, and get your thoughts on where to use this brick treatment, as I want to try it again. (BTW, this can be done for "stone" also. I know, I have this thing for brick, block, and stone
You'll see the area behind the ladderback bar stool, which goes up and to the left, over the fridge and cabinets. That's one place I was considering the bricks, OR leaving that and "bricking" the area from the countertop up to the cabinets. Everything will be painted, and probably textured, or that's what I'm aiming for, just not saying what year. LOL! The hallway to the right is already textured and primed, and waiting for the paint. I'm comfortable with texturing it, because it won't be moved until it's ready to scrap.
