Often referred to as “The Best Paint in the World” by millions of fans, Annie Sloan’s paint range is set to uphold that claim yet again.

With Spring fast approaching the legendary Annie Sloan Chalk Paints Range has just launched its latest colour in the shade of Antoinette.

This pretty pink plaster can accompany two popular complimentary colours often used for mixing. On offer are French Linen, a cool neutral khaki grey, and Original which is a warm and creamy soft white.

Antoinette is inspired by the houses in the old part of Le Havre in Northern France. Annie Sloan says her creation is “the colour of washed out roses and of old plasters. It is a soft, pale pink with a hint of brown that stops the pink being too sweet.”

She added that Antoinette works well with old prints like her very own Faded Roses fabric.

Annie Sloan has been painting for over 40 years and has expert knowledge of paint and pigments, useful for home design.

Her innovative Chalk Paint Range includes 29 iconic colours which make it simple to transform floors, walls and even furniture. One litre of paint is all it takes to cover 13 square metres.

The selection of colours has routes in history with inspiration taken from Annie’s interest in the 18^th and 20th Century. The Chalk Paints were inspired by 18^th Century European furniture and have been created to be rich and bright colours.

The Chalk Paint is also special because it does not follow conventional rules. Instead you will be able to use it in any creative way you want.

Annie says: “Painting with our paint should always be a pleasure. It is designed for people who love to paint.”

The beautiful paints range is also complimented by a selection of fabrics and furniture as well as accessories like fragrances, lighting, mirrors and door knobs for all your Spring decorating needs.

Painting Furniture

 The unique Chalk Paint will adhere to almost any surface, which means you don’t have to worry about priming furniture. That’s right, Chalk Paint can be applied directly to any surface from old waxed pine to varnished wood.

This durable paint can be used to add a beautiful and protective finish, or by diluting it with water you can make a wash to show off wood grains.

Painting Floors

Wooden or concrete floors can be painted in no time. Simply apply the paint directly and finish with a strong varnish.

Painting Walls

Chalk paint gives a smooth finish and because this paint is eco friendly, walls are allowed to breathe. This also means the paint is good for the environment so that’s an added bonus.

Other Uses

Chalk Paint isn’t just limited to the home. You can also use it on garden furniture and pots. Wood, metal, plastic or terracotta, this paint is good for anything.
