Break Away Brick FAUX by Kerri G

We have been working the past few weeks in central Phoenix doing some amazing faux finishes. The client wanted to have something special in their casita and were tired of the red wall. Kerri did our break away brick look for them. We also did a marble finish on their fireplace and bathroom. Be sure to click on the pictures to get a good look at how well these faux finishes turned out.

We have been busy! Kicking into the New Year at full speed. I am behind on my post (as usual) so to catch up here are some pictures of our latest projects. We did several bedrooms in a watermark type faux for a lovely couple in Glendale and then to Ahwahtukee for a marble faux on a few columns. We are off to North Phoenix to do our breakaway brick faux this week.

We painted some electrical cord covers to match the tile.

In case you are not aware Kerri is in Uganda, Africa visiting an orphanage she has adopted with love and support.. Before she left we did do some projects that I would like to share. This first one is a repair. This was a rental home in Scottsdale that got damaged by a tenant. Repairing someone else's faux can be tricky especially in a very visible location. So how did she do?

We completed a project at a home in Scottsdale. Seems like most of our projects are from that area lately. A copper metallic stove hood and metallic powder bathroom. The color of metallic was played off of the sink they had. We also painted some outlet covers to match the backsplash. We are back at it in Scottsdale for next few weeks. A big project in Breakaway brick faux and more!

Master Bath in Ahwatukee

A master bath that we had faux painted years ago was damaged in a remodel, so we were asked to come back in a fix it. With years comes experience so we asked to redo the entire bath to our more improved look. The clients were very happy with the results.

First project of 2017

We completed our first project of 2017. A large niche in a home in the troon area of Scottsdale. This is a metallic faux. It is done by adding layer upon layer until the right look is achieved. The colors were geared around the candelabra and a large piece of art hanging by an adjacent wall. Our client just kept saying "beautiful...beautiful"
We are on to our next project this week. 4 8ft outdoor columns. Not sure were up for this but here goes!

Kerri and I have recovered enough to go back to work. Starting out slow by doing a metallic niche at a home in Scottsdale. Pictures soon!

Faux Break away brick in Gilbert, AZ

Now that Kerri and I are both recovering from our surgeries I have time to finally get caught up with my facebook post for you. BTW we are both doing well and on the mend. Hope to be back at it in late January or early February. We have work booked as soon as we can get back to it. Right before Thanksgiving we did this great break-away brick faux for a Gilbert family home. Even in horrible pain Kerri managed to pull off an incredible look!

 

I am really behind in my posting. After finishing our project in Scottsdale we had two other projects that we needed to get completed before Kerri's neck surgery. She is doing well and it is nice to have the holiday's to rest and heal. I have added some pictures here of the project we had in Gilbert of a few columns in need of some marble faux. Kerri and the client were very pleased with the results.

Completed project in Scottsdale

With the completion of the powder bath and master bedroom we finally completed our project in Scottsdale that began in June of this year. Besides the full marble look through the home we did an accent arch in the powder bath in multi-layered metallic faux finish. I am really behind in my postings and will try to catch you up on all our latest projects

Faux painting in Gilbert

We are not finished with our project in Scottsdale but had to run to Gilbert to do some niches and outlet covers. Check it out!

Oh Boy Ceilings!!! Kerri is working her magic on the master bedroom ceiling while Cubby works on the entry ceiling. Oh and Danny helped in both areas. We should finish up our ceilings this week. We will be happy to have them behind us. Ceilings are a pain in the neck.....get it...pain in the neck. No seriously they hurt your neck. More to come from our project in North Scottsdale.

Our project in Cave Creek is coming along nicely. We now have the hall leading from the garage to the kitchen and the Kitchen breakfast nook area done. Kerri has now begun work in the great room. From Scaffolding to floor it's pretty exhausting work. Not great pictures here. We grabbed some quick shots at the end of the day. More to come with updates on the project. Stay cool!!!!!

We continue to work in Cave Creek this week. This is week number 3. We are doing a huge home and almost every wall. We will be here for the next couple of months. So far we have completed a long hall entrance to the kitchen and half of the kitchen. The hallway is hard to get pictures of but here are a few peeks and a snap shot of one of the large niches in the kitchen. Hope everyone had a great Father's Day!
