- Donna Weaver, Director of Musée de Venoge, demonstrates a 19th-century decorative arts technique of vinegar graining. A summer workshop is available for those interested in learning more about this easy and clever method of embellishment.
Take a look at a past summer workshops at Venoge: venoge.org/summ...
A bit of information before you try this at home:
--The base coat of paint we use is a semi-gloss or satin finish latex.
--Powdered pigment can be obtained at an art store. Ask for dry color or powdered pigment. Earth tones are the most economical. The dry color used to tint cement can be used as well. It is not as finely ground but works for this application, is affordable and available in earth tones.
--Clear shellac works best for a finish coat and lets more color come through.
--Some prefer to wear gloves while painting as the paint and shellac can be difficult to remove.
Recipe for the vinegar mix:
½ cup water
¼ cup vinegar (try various ones if you like)
1 tsp. sugar
Mix until the sugar dissolves.
Enjoy.

What a unique result. Love it, thank you.
Give it a try. This is just the very basic info...there is much more you can do. There is a long and fascinating history also.
Donna is a national treasure!
Fabulous demo, great comments by Donna - very inspiring!!
Great explanation and demonstration. Your boxes are gorgeous. I have a question for you. When you do a workshop do you prepare the boxes with an oil paint base prior to the workshop so it has time to dry?
I look forward to participating in one of your workshops in the future.
