Painted Walls

I'm getting started on my room finally... or again(for the umpteenth time). This time however, I think I will go in a completely different direction. I've been eyeballing grey walls lately, so naturally I tried my hand at a faux concrete wall. 

Here is what I came up with; I used a dark gray patio paint as a base and brushed on a mixture of white latex paint and a clear glaze medium using a hand "chip brush". 

 I could have worked the white brush strokes a little more so you wouldn't be able to see the hard edges, but  I didn't want the walls to look the same.

(Doesn't look like concrete but I am very happy with the results)

My tree branch has found life again. I found it in a parking lot and had to take it home with me, all it needed was a little spray paint and a few paper butterflies(I plan on making more). As for the dress form, another Home Goods find.
