another painted floor



another beautiful painted floor. I absolutely love the yellow. she used foam core to make a stencil and glossy porch paint. I really would love to stencil our concrete patio.

  1. I want to do this as well for our concrete patio. My husband seems to think it won't hold up well, or that paint for concrete comes in limited lame colors, but it is so cute and much cheaper than a nice decking. Know anyone who has painted concrete like this?

  2. I saw this person did something like this:

    I also think maybe you could do the base color with concrete stain, which does hold up well for sure, and then use paint for the pattern. I've been thinking about this for awhile, but I'm not yet ready to commit to doing it. I have to find the perfect pattern and be totally sure of the color I want.
