In this video, I'll show you steps 2 and 3 for the basics of my technique for layering chalk paint colors on wood. At the end, I share my thoughts about why I use a certain kind of brush.

I get asked this question ALL THE TIME so please let me know if I did a good job showing how to do to layer chalk paint. This is a very basic technique for layering chalk paint and other pieces may require a more advanced application. I'll try to show that in another video.
