DIY: Ombre Wall | How to Paint & Tips!

[@notalltheories]

Okay, so I've watched about 16 different tutorials (some of them by "professionals") and their finished walls looked terrible. Yours is so beautifully blended! I can't wait to try this.

[@MontyVirusHM]

holy crap i watched this video like 2 years ago and now im watching your vlogs all the time i just realised

[@annabellegao]

I have watched a number of ombre diy-s, and your result looks the best so far. I like the gentle smooth transitions you made compared to the barely blurred stripes most people do.

[@junlouiscasiano2157]

tip: (example ombre light pink to redish pink..) get a white paint and a red paint.(10white:8red ratio) step: 1)mix 1 part red to 10 part white to create a light pink color then paint it to your wall horizontaly for about 1 foot. 2)add again another 1 part red to the paint left from the first that you mixed then paint it under the part that you painted at the step 1... 3)repeat step 2 so on... 4)be proud thats a nice wall you have!

This looked great. It reminds me of the ocean and sky.

[@samaraisnt]

I appreciate all the overflowing realness going on.

[@naimahq8739]

Oh man. Great tips. Imagine doing like the colors of a sunset!

[@claudiadickerman4218]

Your attitude is great, everyone has to start somewhere, and with paint projects, there is always painting over what you may not like the end result of. I am going to Ombre a wall in my sitting room/home office in the next week or so. I am 71 years young and I am in good health, so I am going for it. I was almost going to spend near $500.00 for something similar on Wallisism which has beautiful murals and wallpapers. As I started to convince myself to part with my hard saved cash, I remembered watching someone do an Ombre wall years ago, so I am back looking to see how to go about it before I even pick out my paint. I know it will be Sherwin Williams Cashmere line as that paint defies description! Yes its 20-40$$ more a gallon than their normal line, but Cashmere is the bomb paint. It goes on like thick soft butter, it fills in and bonds to tiny indentations or scratches your drywall may have (my house is over 20 yrs old and I am not the first owner so it does have "imperfections" . I saw someone using the Cashmere line and decided right there and then to go to the Sherwin Williams store and have a paint talk. Cashmere comes in two sheens, one is a pearl sheen and one is low luster. I going for low luster for the accent wall in blues and the pearl on the other walls which will be the same color that I use for the base coat in the Ombre. I just know it will come out good and then I can sit in my massage chair and admire it while my old bones and muscles recover!!!

[@superholly]

This looks super cool! Congrats!

Even though you made mistakes your video is good. You clearly described your mistakes to make the video more user-friendly. Many videos do not show what could go wrong and if they do make mistakes they don't usually know what they are doing to turn it around or gloss over the mistake with no clear narrative. You can tell you have experience and great artistic instincts. You did it well and I'd love to see the wall after you rested and went back to fix the white. LOL!

[@elizabethdean8345]

Thanks for sharing! I am going to attempt this soon, and can use all the tips, how-to's, and how-not-to's I can find!

[@theayesha147]

Anabelle spoke so cutely when she was younger. Awww

[@chelseagranger6434]

it's much easier to blend the colors together on the wall as it is WET (you have to keep it wet) than to mix them in a container and apply that. you get a more natural progression if you blend the colors on the wall with a brush as you go

[@trk8908]

Very nice first attempt! I realize it's been quite a while since you posted this video, but do you remember the specific colors you used? Or looking back on it now, what shades would you use for that tropical look?

[@YTube143100]

step one: be talented af

[@avillazamora3660]

Talent is bullshit

[@mingjiali512]

I like the transition of the dark to light you did !

[@svenaj199]

You are so smiles and cute 😂 I'm watching your vlogs now and you ( not surprisingly ) grew up so much

[@demurestudy6648]

YOU’RE SO SMALL THIS WAS SO LONG AGO OMG

[@LaydeeLia]

I would have used a sponge instead of a brush, dipping 1/2 into 1 colour, and the other 1/2 into the other colour, and sponging to blend on the wall (the same way people do with 2 or more colours of nail polish on their fingernails).

[@junesherlock425]

Thanks. This give me the courage to try

[@SewEasyPlease]

It turned out great! Especially love the blue ombre

[@neridiaz7447]

Hi, I like the colors you choose .. May I know the exact color???? Thanks....

[@adffsd7736]

What color paint and brands did you use??? I LOVED the color!!

[@kait5204]

In love with the song in the background

[@mbstooler5087]

[@paulcurtis2921]

Really good video! What type of paint did you use? Can this be done with Matt emulsion?

[@ArtlyLee]

it looks really good! it reminds me of like foggy water

[@madisoncollins13]

Omg fetus!!!! I didnt realize it was u when i clicked it

[@shepaintsalot]

Beautiful!!!

Looks sooooo pretty wish I had it

[@joycecortez4462]

may i know the paint colors that you used here..pleaseeee.. i really love ombre blue thanks

[@AMaterialSpectrum]

The wall looks awesome!!

[@undercovermasochist9873]

What song was that playing when you began painting?

[@sophiebinns8726]

Same question!

[@annabellegao]

Sink In by The Paper Kites!! It took me THIS long to find it!

[@bekahspencer1707]

What music are you using in the background? This video is amazing! Thank you!

[@thefaninmyroom7784]

What I would do: Put the first color at the top and the second at the bottom Then bring the colors up to the middle and blend out

[@ilikeitkuang8729]

I'm proud of you painting

[@LoveSpaarkle]

wow! That looks so good!!

[@Tanvee]

Awww you are so small here

[@TheDecoratingDivas]

It's lovely but next time try using a much bigger brush, you will find it easier.

[@Boredchinchilla]

Or a roller to put the main paint on and a brush to blend each color...

[@vanabanana8276]

Is your wall wood or cement? Cause i think it would affect the outcome. Great wall btw

[@annabellegao]

I just painted on a dry wall. Painting on wood might give it some cool texture, but the color should be the same!

[@thehotelmotelholidayinn]

looks amazing!

[@DanteVelasquez]

it looks beautiful, and i think the top is blended nicely :-)

[@christiancloser8174]

Also how many colors did you use? 3?

[@christiancloser8174]

This was great, thanks for the idea!

[@YumnaBeltagui]

the wall looks really pretty , great job :)

[@dardenfamilytimes8010]

can you do this with oil paint?

[@georgia.k615]

What color is that? Love it :)

[@Sara.Rose.]

Loved it!! 💛✌️

[@huahuang9460]

SO CUTE

[@shephardheart7246]

Thank you!

[@daCubanaqt]

Wall looks good, but I was dying watching you use a brush. Using a roller slowly from one side would have sped things up, and then you could’ve gone back and blended the colors with the brush as you go.

[@GigiLoveILY]

What grade are you in? You seem so mature. I am in 9th, I wish I had a friend like you

[@salt3106]

THE wall was very exhausted😂😂😂

[@QteaTheSwag]

TINY!! OMG

[@chelsea19]

The girl with the yellow pijamas behind 👀 looks 😊 🤤 😂 kidding! Great job 👏

[@tolgadn]

good job

[@MyChristi123]

omg so cute heh

[@ilikeitkuang8729]

I love ❤️ it

[@knwong8]

AMANDAA

[@matthewpate6985]

next time do the wall in 3 section start from the top with the light color work down to your dark color. In stead of using a brush. use a sea sponge for fading .what a defiance. your job looks very nice. note: Do sample's on Pieces of sheet rock. the customer will decide what he or she wants. From a 2 tone through 4 tone ( tone mean shades) good luck. god bless

[@georgerosas9663]

Is that your house

[@wintshwephoo436]

I love ur pants

[@KRAFTPACKAMBALAJ]

[@Meriemomar93]

[@LauraKemp089]

Ikr?!

[@Meriemomar93]

[@annabellegao]

selena cyrus We built this wall to split a bigger room into two :)

[@avillazamora3660]

I like your voice it's cute and idk, thank you for this video, I could keep trying until I get it right but goddammit I've already put like 4 layers of paint, one for every failed attempt, so I'd rather just learn exactly how to do it...although this is an entire wall and my thing is just a 2cm line so I think I still have to try some stuff. This video is from 2014....fuck, that was 4 years ago...I WAS 11 WHEN THIS HAPPENED. I'm bored
