• Distressed Baby Blue Faux Wood Surface
• To begin, place one foam board on a flat surface
• Using a ruler, mark 4 inch increments across the short side of the board
• Draw a line the length of the board for each increment, keeping the edges straight with a flat surface
• Using a butter knife, score each line firmly, do not cut through the board
• To create a beveled look, press each line firmly with a cornered box, piece of wood or butter knife, you will have to press hard
• Distress foam board with kitchen utensils, cups etc. to create bumps, lines, and knicks

First Layer of Paint

• Drizzle a combination of browns and black paints over the board, smooth the paint with a gloved hand, rough paint brush or sponge, to give the illusion of wood grain, until the entire board surface is covered with paint. Add more paint if needed
• Allow board to dry completely

Second Layer of Paint

• When the board is dry, drizzle white and blue paints, in various shades over the brown surface
• Smooth over board using lengthwise motions.
• Allow board to dry completely
• Using a paint brush or sponge, spread a thin layer of Americana Decor Creme Wax over painted board. Allow the wax to dry completely before use
