Interior Stucco for Dollhouse Walls


Ok, here is my adventure in creating a stucco type look for the interior of the rare book shop I am making. I was going for an old look not Southern California stucco.....so more of a knock down plaster with defects....hence old.  I used a common wall plaster that I picked up at our local Home Depot.


Oh and don't forget this handy tool while you are at the store. I layered the spackling paste with the tool below and left trowel marks.  The depth of the spackling I put on was around 1/8" or less.

After applying the spackling compound you will need a washcloth with longer nap. Get the wash cloth more than damp but not dripping.  Make sure you fold the washcloth so that you have a smooth surface showing. Then gently press allover your spackling job.  Here is the final product. Of course let it sit and dry for at least a day.
