A decorating tool (1) suitable for creating a broken pattern in e.g. flowable paint, varnish or glazes to simulate for example ragging, sponging and rag-rolling effects. The tool (1) comprises flexible flaps (6a and 6b) attached to a roller (2) so that when the roller (2) is rolled across a coat of paint etc, the flaps (6a, 6b) strike the paint and create the broken pattern. The tool may be used to distress the coating whereupon flaps (6a, 6b) are preferably made from sheepskin or chamois leather. Also a method for creating a broken pattern by use of the roller (2), especially use of the roller to create a broken pattern in a paint, varnish or glaze containing an additive to retard drying. |
