Annie Sloan Chalk Paint™ Duck Egg Blue
This soft greenish blue stems from the first discovery of a good blue pigment in the 18th Century, which was then lightened with white. It can be described as a Rococo blue, as nothing says French and Swedish interiors quite like this colour.
Chalk Paint™ is the brand name for Annie’s unique water-based decorative paint. Developed by Annie Sloan specifically for furniture, it can be applied to most surfaces and very rarely requires any priming or sanding before painting. You can use it on walls, floors, wood, concrete, metal, matt plastic, earthenware, brick, stone and more – inside or outside. You can even use it to paint upholstery and dye fabric. It can be thinned with water and used as a wash. It can also be used as an impasto (thickly) — just leave the lid off overnight to thicken. Add Chalk Paint™ Wax for a subtle sheen, protection and durability. For an aged look, add Dark or Black Chalk Paint™ Wax. To lighten colours or for a limed look, try White Chalk Paint Wax.
