How To Get Chippy Two Toned Paint | Crackle Paint

[@jjohnson8977]

love that you flip that brush back and forth and there is your uncovered couch about a foot away.

[@pamlooman8045]

That’s cool changing the dresser to a desk… what a great idea.. and your coffee table turned out beautiful I love the crackle look.. Thank you.

[@heatherwhitehead5926]

That was great! I didn’t think about the glaze going into the cracks and adding that layer of interests! Thanks

[@onesoldiersmom]

Thank you, Jamie! You're so talented. I love how you get right to the point and don't drag your videos out! Sometimes, people tend to drag on and on and I lose interest. Your projects are cool. You've inspired me to get started on my projects!

[@JamiRayVintage]

Yay! Fair warning. Some of our Live videos go long but we do a lot of real time q and a and then publish them later so more people can watch. 🙂

[@PooterCat2000]

Omg!!! This technique is amazing. My furniture was laminate not real wood at all. But I added in the extra bond and holy moly my cabinet turned out amazing. Thank you for all the tips and tricks. Wish I could post a photo. Items I bought: extra bond; Sweet pickins Milk paint color: Red Wagon; I used a dark brown paint for the base color; and the dark oil wax instead of black. Thank you Jami Ray

[@JamiRayVintage]

[@vandahuman8522]

I am so addicted to your videos, I subscribed and now I am watching all your older videos. Love the chest of drawers / desk. I learn so much from watching your videos, super happy.

[@WandaRhoads2011]

Thank you for the way you go into detail. I’ve watched so many videos and no one shares as well as you. I love your work.

[@susanpittman5298]

Thank you for the short but very informative explanation on how you do this. It came out beautifully!

[@MjrMjr-tt3kn]

I would recommend using a clear coat on top of the black so when you sand off the green it will minimize going all the way down to the bare wood. Looks awesome!!

[@KossolaxtheForesworn]

I dont mind going down to bare wood, looks even better for me. benches like ogres have layers.

[@calinbrown517]

OMGIDDYOD flashback 🥰 this is one of the first videos I found of this channel and the clock mirror sealed the deal and I've never looked back! It's amazing to see y'all and how much your life has changed from then to now but what has stayed is your attention to detail and quality never waivers which is WHY y'all now have a big ol church for the store y'all now have because y'all outgrew the other one! So I just wanted to leave this here and even though I know you won't see it, the happy thoughts are still there 🤗🙏🏻 4 ✌🏼 AlWaYs

[@yaa63]

VERY COOL...Thank for sharing this technique👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@HollyWood-do6fn]

I love this! I have a lot of furniture that I would like flip! And I love that farm house or French country look!

[@ruthbennett679]

I love it. Without CC on even after watching it many times I could not understand everything you were saying, which is kinda important when watching a DIY, especially to a newbie... Love your colors!

Great tutorial Jami Ray. Easy to follow instructions. 🙌

[@bbetter746]

That’s beautiful! I bought a very primitive looking, dark wash stand today and this is exactly the color and look I was thinking about. Thank you so much for the demo.

[@djphoto2]

You have created some wonderful finishes. love the look of the crackle and the dark oil over the top. Cute toes too!

[@shuddle82]

This is the content we are looking for. More furniture tutorials.

[@rvcoast2coast832]

I love your show, you and your husband are so humble and work well together God bless you both. BTW, I love your channel

[@carolinebesinger8611]

That turned out way cool.

[@TheOpelkoenjas]

That is just beautiful! Reminds me of the furniture at my grandma's house back in the 70's (with furniture of the 40's). AWESOME!!!!!

[@JamiRayVintage]

Thank you!

[@bobbiek2960]

I love this bench.

[@iscraplife]

What a difference that made. It turned out adorable. I haven't tried milk paint yet. I really need to give it a try, thank you 😊

[@AnimeGirlCheckk]

I’m glad crackle is in 😀 I have a 1800’s Dining room suite that’s all crackled naturally

[@bethsloan5462]

Nice vid. Please show products and how to mix milk paint. Thanks

[@bigtimetorifan]

1st off-Your tone and delivery are great! Upbeat w/o being yell-y. And then of course the bench came out amazing! Crazy to see what you started from.

[@JamiRayVintage]

Thanks!

[@NORTHERNFARMGIIRL]

Howdy 🤠Jamie from Canada Eh.. I have Watched your Work along with your talented hubby. Ty for the Advice 'n' LovE💖 Your Wonderful Work!!!!

[@lilangel199kk]

Very beautiful!

[@silvershadow7245]

OMG, I love this idea!When we bought our 1800 farm house we found a bureau in the barn that was sooooo alligator crackled. We had a hard time stripping it so I finally found out that I could just chalk paint it and I am so proud of it now. Had I known back then that was the desired finish I would have saved my husband and myself so much trouble. You two are so inspring! I cannot waint until spring when I can get out into our converted chicken coop to work on some furniture projects that you gave me inspiration for. Chicken coop turned party house turned workshop! Works for me. Gotta get it heated, though..lol.

[@JamiRayVintage]

+bam fron it will be a great workspace!!

[@adventuretravelsmikebill2343]

Great job have not seen this method before THANK YOU

[@tonial.andrews9638]

Thank you sooooo very helpful!!! I'm trying milk paint tomorrow first time!! Really looking forward to the cracking look!!!!

[@janapewhairangi4894]

Best demonstration for the EXACT look I desire! Thank you so much! 💙

[@abracadabrarefurbishedllc6934]

I absolutely love all of your videos!!!!!😊✌❤🙏

[@christinadeleon2050]

I love how they came out! Thank you for explaining the process so well.

[@christinadeleon2050]

What colors would you use for an off-white final look?

[@janjones4772]

I love the desk, to bad you don’t close to me, I’d love to have it, I could fill those drawers up. Thanks for sharing Great work ! 👍👍💕😊

[@juliepowell6656]

That definitely turned out beautiful!!! When I get rich I’d buy everything!!! ❤️❤️

[@tmackie1694]

Ha! Just came across this video...the FIRST ever JRV video I ever watched. Been a fan ever since :)

[@JamiRayVintage]

❤️❤️😊

[@leonormartinez9108]

Came out Great! I like the way the paint sounds slouching as it goes on bench, a calming sound 💤

[@michaelclement6977]

Great Technique Tutorial! I loathe watching paint dry 24hrs. so I Invest in a heat gun with adjustable heat setting speeds the project especially multiple coats of paint!

[@JamiRayVintage]

Paint drying is my nemesis!

[@laurensouthgate2458]

That looks really nice .

[@JamiRayVintage]

Thanks!

[@LindaONeill]

Looks really cool this is how I want to paint thanks for sharing

[@tomstruth7522]

the bench is great, it looks like an old original piece.

[@mish538]

Great video and loving the colours you chose

[@JamiRayVintage]

Thanks!

[@melaniemel2732]

Love those colors together I would have never though of that combo thank you for sharing !

[@trishwilke2247]

I live in Avery old home and my doors naturally look that way. Should I sand or just paint?

[@JamiRayVintage]

If they are already chippy and crackled I might just leave them. If you’re trying to contain the chippy paint just seal them.

[@richarddiloreto6655]

I used chalk paint/black on bottom, then white chalk paint on top, distressed it on the corners but put a clear wax on the top because I wanted it nice and bright

[@JamiRayVintage]

Nice

[@princessambellina]

Beautiful furniture , can I also do this with clear oil wax ?

[@denisekorejko1688]

When this video started I saw your dining room table. That is the look I want, a painted base and wood top. Can you tell me how you refinished the wood top? It's beautiful.

[@karenweber8893]

I really love the final result! Sounds and looks like a durable finish...excited to try this technique!

[@JamiRayVintage]

+Karen Weber thanks!!

[@stephanieblackmon2163]

Hi do you have a very first beginners tutorial to watch. I just jumped in on one of your videos and I would like to get to know some of the products on a more Elementary level. But I did enjoy this video thanks I'm excited to see what else you have in store!

[@JamiRayVintage]

Thanks! We have a few playlists set up. This one is for chalk paint kzbin.info/aero/PLprcXWqGeBKgC-B5RuO347_grhf4-_M-E And this one is for milk paint. kzbin.info/aero/PLprcXWqGeBKhxQzDO7XZOPAg_J8lIEGwA

Absolutely stunning! Can’t wait to try it. Thank you for the awesome video.

[@JamiRayVintage]

+weston0614 thanks for watching :)

[@projectacuhope]

It's so pretty! How did you discover that milk paint over spray paint will crackle? I love the results!

[@ELSITAFERNANDEZ]

Im gonna make a table out of an old door and that painting technique looks so pretty

[@JamiRayVintage]

Nice! We’d love to see pics! Have you joined our Jami Ray Vintage Facebook group? It’s a place where people can show off their projects and ask questions.

[@ELSITAFERNANDEZ]

Jami Ray Vintage nice: searching on fb now

[@yenttirb2372]

I have to say, I usually don’t watch these videos because the people get on my nerves. They talk WAY too much like they went to Harvard and got a degree in using chalk paint(I say chalk paint because that’s what I’ve always used), then talk in this fake voice to first tell us how they went parasailing and stumbled across this paint on vacation and how much it cost and where they picked it up from and how the cashier said it was their best seller. “I’m like dammit Wanda!!! Idgaf!” You were more like “hey y’all look. This what I used, this how you do it, 💥 boom 💥 the end.” So I subscribed!!!😇you’re awesome.

[@000000Kimo]

Beautiful crackle💖💖💖

[@JamiRayVintage]

Thanks!

[@loristeger9381]

love the bench! the desk is awesome!!

[@annettereed6146]

Love these pieces! Is there a tutorial for the desk? Great idea to repurpose a dresser.

[@JamiRayVintage]

We haven’t made a dresser desk yet. 😞

[@annettereed6146]

Sorry. I thought I heard your husband say that the desk in the background was originally a dresser.

[@jenniferkupinkiley5060]

So cool! I am crazy about the Hoosier cabinet in the background - did you guys happen to do a video on that project?

[@jessicasalinas207]

Thank you for sharing. Love the crackle finish with the distress.

[@Smilebefine]

Cracked look is gorgeous.

[@JamiRayVintage]

+L. L. I love good crack!

[@bet7749]

Love the bench! Can’t wait to try the milk paint I ordered from y’all on a project piece! Keep up the helpful videos!

[@JamiRayVintage]

+Ellen Brinkley yay. Send me a pic when you get it done

[@xSammy73x]

Watching this video was mesmerizing. Thanks for the knowledge.

[@carolroberts7066]

If you wanted to use this technique on a dining room table and chairs that is used daily, what would you seal the tabletop and heavy contact areas with to prevent wear, tear and chipping?

[@JamiRayVintage]

This is sealed with wax. You could use a liquid top coat for durability but be aware it may reactivate the paint and cause further chipping.

[@davidcole769]

Can you achieve the same effect with chalk paint? Fab video and channel

[@celestejacobs1463]

This is very cool. Do you think this look would look good on an old wooden Chinese Server?

[@diannajeter873]

Great tips!!

[@jenniferwilliams7086]

Omg . I just found you today and I am in love .. im curious why do you call it milk paint , and also why does it smell like milk while it's wet .. and I'm loving how its in a powder form .. that's awesome

[@gloriafields4328]

Wow !! This video came up just when I was trying to decide what I was going to do with a 2/3 round table. Great idea. Thanks

[@lindzcomer]

Coming back to rewatch this video because I really want to try this!! Do you think this technique would work over a veneer? I know I will need to scuff sand the veneer a bit, but I can't get it sanded all the way down to the wood, so not sure if it would work the same. Thank you!

[@JamiRayVintage]

Yeah it should work on a veneer. If it’s really shiny you may want to still do the spray paint step

[@lindzcomer]

@@JamiRayVintage Thank you!!

[@moonandrainbows]

This is very pretty. What is the name of the green paint?

[@tahirahkamil2498]

Love it. How did you get that crackle look?

[@mphillips4387]

Love this! I was given some blond wood chairs. I am going to do this technique to get them looking old instead of 90s Country kitchen.

[@WeLoveMusic523]

Gotta love that "90s country kitchen" look 🤣😋

[@Tjbvr]

You do a great job i have been watching your videos and trying to learn as well I am really interested in white wash painting and was wanting to know if you can use any color of paint when you whitewash i am new at all of this but absolutely love your work😍

[@JamiRayVintage]

Tammy Robinson yes it works with any color.

[@gailwilliamson9601]

Great video. You made it look so easy.

[@kymberlleejennivie5329]

I was wanting to try this technique. Is there possible something else that I might already have that I could use in the place of sweetie Jane??

[@meganschwartz-nelson2238]

I'm on your website getting everything i need to diy my coffee table and kitchen table but I'm not sure which brush you used to apply the milk paint! You have so many btushes available, I want to make sure I get the right one!

[@JamiRayVintage]

My go to brush that works well with all paints is this one. jamirayvintage.com/collections/wax-glaze-brushes/products/1-3-4-oval-round-brush-paint-pixie The #8 is the same step brush but smaller so it holds a little less paint.

[@CN-yf3lr]

hi Jami, niice tutorial!😍 i have a white wood, do i have to put brown or black b4 the accent color I want it? is it gonna show the white?

[@JamiRayVintage]

Sometimes it does chip through the spray paint. I would spray paint it let it dry 48 hours then do another coat. The trick is to put the milk paint on when the spray paint isnt quite dry and it’s still tacky.

[@carolejean63]

Nice paint brush.. looks so easy!!

[@haylzc827]

Very nice table. Can you use wood stain instead of spray paint and still get the same effect? I have a bedside table that is light wood but I want it to be dark showing through instead when I distress it. I will be using chalk paint as the top layer and have a load of wood stain and no spray paint.

[@JamiRayVintage]

You can use wood stain instead of the spray paint to get the two tone, but the spray paint is what gave the nice resist and helped the milk paint crackle and chip.

[@ashleyclay702]

Exquisite Work Hun! Love It!

[@michellebarham326]

I don't understand the dislike/thumbs down..I have loved everything you have done..and even if something were not to my liking colorwise or whatever, you give great instructions on how to achieve the look you do like..So from me you get many 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@JamiRayVintage]

Thank you! ❤️

[@michellebarham326]

Jami Ray Vintage you deserve them! And thank you for inspiring me..you have no idea how much I needed these...I have so many ideas, just need the how-to..I am already going paint crazy and my husband is giving me the side eyes👀😆

[@JamiRayVintage]

Lol. Tell him to keep his side eyes to himself! 😂❤️

[@michellebarham326]

Jami Ray Vintage 🤣 oh I will

[@lilyLily1824]

Any tips on painting a door?I want it kind of like the bench you just did. Also i don't want to take it off its hinges. I live in a barndominium and that door goes out to the cold shop! it was -7 this morning! brrrr!

[@nikkimarkham4752]

What brush did you use in this video please to paint the bench? I’d like to purchase. Thanks!

[@classic287]

That crackle is really cool...

[@maureenheathman6927]

Thank you. The bench looks great. Could this be done on kitchen cabinets. Would it hold up? Could the Sweet Pickens Oil Wax be used over latex paint or just milk paint? Thank you again.

[@JamiRayVintage]

I like sealers like Top Coat or Big Top for cabinets but the oil wax can be done over the top of those sealers and then wiped back for an aged look. jamirayvintage.com/search?q=Top+Coat

[@yorkiepuppykisses]

love how this turned out and how you broke it down to be really easy... Can't wait to try it on a dresser I've been wanting to paint!! Awesome job :)

[@Aimeeevps]

What omg I was so lost on what she did to the paint i domt know what she was talking about lol

[@claialva]

@jami ray vintage If I wanted to do this exactly the same except with a white top coat like their Flour Sack paint (instead of the Sweetie Jane) should I still use the black oil wax? You’re videos are the best! Thank you ❤️🙏🏻

[@JamiRayVintage]

Yes, BUT...I would seal it with clear wax first or Top Coat, then use the oil wax. Otherwise it may really darken your paint

[@claialva]

Will it still get that alligator crackle like yours? I love that look...

[@chrisgrayling7584]

Great video. TY!

[@barbarajohnston5400]

g8 finish! can you tell me what the difference is between chalk paint and milk paint please?

[@JamiRayVintage]

Milk paint is powdered to start with and contains milk. It chips and crackles on its own. Chalk paint can vary in consistency and doesn’t naturally chip and crackle.

[@hounaidah.farhat5159]

Love the outcome of this project..

[@tamimarie2024]

How long do you have to wait for the black paint to dry before you start painting the milk paint over it

[@endogenetics5535]

Beautiful love your work!

[@JamiRayVintage]

Thanks!

[@michellesteele5588]

I am going to start my very first furniture piece. Also using the decal. DO I need to seal it after a decal? what is the best sealant?

[@JamiRayVintage]

I love diys big top to seal. Or sweet Pickins top coat. I suggest sealing before and after for best adhesion. Let the sealer dry overnight before you put the decal on

[@Here_Today_]

How do you not have paint all over your couch?? Lol, I get it everywhere. Great bench!

[@JamiRayVintage]

Hehe, I’m really good at scrubbing paint off of things! 😂😂

[@payallall2299]

Absolutely beautiful. Last week I bought a vintage desk and researching on crackle effects. I am not able to spray paint, what could be other options to give a base color to the furniture? Is milk paint the absolute best way to get crackle effect? I am seeing crackle paints in my search. TIA

[@JamiRayVintage]

Milk paint is my favorite way to get the crackle effect.

[@tinasomeone2160]

they sell crackle mediums and then Elmer's glue method. watch some videos first.

[@theresamontera4714]

Absolutely easy! I think the bedroom sets getting a do over 😁

[@JamiRayVintage]

Yay! We’d love to see pics of your finished project.

[@theresamontera4714]

Im going to be learning by watching you! Im sooooooo interested and i will start on some smaller pieces to begin with lol! And will show you my progress! Question.... if the wood had a coating do i have to sand it totally before spray painting??

[@JamiRayVintage]

We do very minimal sanding. And only if a piece is really slick or shiny. Just enough to rough up the surface.

[@theresamontera4714]

Jami Ray Vintage your the best!

[@theresamontera4714]

Jami Ray Vintage just wondering how much is each can of paint and how much is the oil
