I wanted a stone wall, so I sculpted one
41,538HUZZAH, do you want a fantasy-looking medieval wall in your home? Eyy, just sculpt it out of drywall. Easy as that! Just kidding it was very time consuming and made my wrists feel like they just competed in a professional arm wrestling tournament. But HEY, it was worth it.
Ever since I made the faux stone wall out of plastic sheets, something has just been irking me about it, SO. I decided I wanted to improve it by trying a totally different method. Thanks to the internet, I learned you could apply and sculpt drywall compound right onto the wall! What a time to be alive. And to be a content creator I guess cuz I filmed it and HERE IT IS.
This project was relatively simple, though. All I needed was that joint compound, some tools and paint! I think it ended up costing around $70 (but since I have all the supplies it'll be much cheaper next time around). Took me about 3 days, not too shabby!
Anywho, I hope you enjoy! I had a lot of fun with this one and now have a swole wrist.
