Description
Get a gorgeous crackle finish without crackle medium using just school glue and joint compound you probably already have at home. Works on wood, furniture, canvas, cardboard, and signs. Once you see how easy this is, you're going to want to use it on everything.
This technique gives you that beautiful cracked plaster look that looks like something you'd find in a high end vintage shop and it costs almost nothing to make.
If you love finding ways to create beautiful things without spending a fortune, you'd feel right at home inside Our Upcycled Society. I have hundreds of digital printables, DIY recipes just like this one, and exclusive tutorials all for less than a cup of coffee a month. Link below.
