Do you have home decor elements that are drably lacking a personality and punch? Well, there’s an easy way to change all that! With Modern Masters Metal Effects Kit, you can easily transform any home decor element into a thing of lasting beauty.
Let me show you how I was able to turn my drab home decor elements into the perfectly pretty pieces I adore!
It all starts with their kit.

I have a pair (or had) of black plain candle holders – I really loved the shape and size of them and knew I could turn them into beautiful pieces that have personality and pops of color! This kit is super easy to use too and another reason I love it!
As you can see below, these candleholders were, well, just plain boring.
The process is super easy too! Everything you need is in one kit.
It’s as easy as stir and paint!
I have my three pieces all prepped and ready to dry. I decided to paint a vase as well. The candlestick holders are made of wood and the vase is glass. You can patina any paintable surface!
Below, you can see it turning before your eyes. This piece was still in the drying process.
Now, I have created beautiful home decor elements that have personality and pops of color too!
I didn’t spray the activator with a heavy hand because, personally, I love the bronze patina finish too and wanted to be sure there was enough of it showing. They recommend against spraying with a heavy hand.
I love how the colors in my table pick up and accentuate the tones in the patina finish!
Using this kit has made such a huge difference in my home decor elements. If I had to buy patina candle holders it would have cost me a fortune! I saved money doing it myself.
I also decided to paint a vase as I mentioned above. Look at how stunning this turned out. Here’s a close up of how it looked before.
And now look at how perfectly patina it is!
I can’t wait to use this Modern Masters Metal Effects Kit, again! I have so many other pieces ready for their transformation into perfectly patina!
I also transformed my lamp using this patina kit too – be sure you check out that post as well. I am in love with the results!

It’s time to repaint my metal front door. I’ve been thinking maybe some type of copper color, possibly antiquing it. I’m wondering if this kit would be an interesting alternative. What do u think?
Hi Louise, Oh gosh, yes. I love patina and think it would look amazing on a door. I love Modern Masters products. Head over to their homepage for some inspirational ideas too. They also sell paint designed just for doors. Love that idea!
Carolann
This looks really great. Thanks for the product tutorial and review. You could take all kinds of different decor and with a little effort make them all coordinate and match. Beautiful.
Carolann…
I too am a fan of Modern Masters…their paints are such high quality and make it really easy to ‘faux up’ just about anything.
Thanks for sharing you great projects.
