Painter Chicks named Best of Big D
November 15, 2008 by admin
D Magazine’s annual ‘Best of Big D’ highlights the city’s most unique qualities. Only restaurants, bars, salons, shops and services that are exclusive to Dallas make the list. The Painter Chicks were recognized by D Magazine’s Best of Big D as the “Best Way to Put on a Coat!”
“These ladies are the unlikeliest avant-garde interior painters and faux finishers you’ll ever find. They’re a group of suburban moms with extraordinary skill who actually listen to their clients instead of pushing the latest trends. They started about eight years ago and operate strictly word-of-mouth. Be warned: there’s at least a three-month waiting list for their services.”
Painter Chicks remake the Ben and Skin Show
November 11, 2008 by admin
When Ben & Skin were hired for their daily talk radio show they compared their office to the trash compactor in Star Wars. It was a drab and shabby space with no personality. The hilarious Ben & Skin wanted an inspiring “Think Tank” to help their creative juices flow.
The Painter Chicks came to their rescue. By resurfacing the ugly stained ceiling tiles, they now have the look of an antique copper tile ceiling. The chicks then did a hand troweled texture with embossed stenciling to give a distinct masculine look to their office. Ben & Skin were so happy with the transformation, they talked about it for weeks on their show.
