The easiest type of book to paint is one that is hardcover and with straight edges. (Deckled edges are really hard to do. Paperbacks are a little more challenging to tape.) Kids acrylics might be a little too thin, and fancy paint is too thick, so your best bet is value-type craft paint that’s multipurpose! Similarly, it is asked, how do you make a book look vintage? Place the book on the wax paper, then dip the sponge brush into the coffee. Begin brushing coffee onto the book pages. Remember to brush coffee onto the front and back pages as well as the sides and spine. Once you’ve achieve the color and aged look you want, allow the books to dry completely.Can you paint books? There are various ways we can paint books. We can select craft paint, left-over paint, chalk paint or spray paint. Today, I’ve painted my books with Rustoleum’s Chalked Paint in Linen. With a couple inches space between them, I painted one side – left them all to dry. I then painted another coat.
