I really enjoy mixing the Chalk Paint™ by Annie Sloan and wanted to share with you my most recent color combo! I wanted a light grey that wasn’t as blue as Paris Grey and not as dark as French Linen. So being the clutz that I am, the other day I dropped a new can of French Linen on the ground and it busted open! I quickly picked it up and decided that I’d use this can to play with mixing colors.
I took roughly 40% Pure White, 40% French Linen, and 20% Paris and mixed it all together. I played with the color a bit but think that this is roughly the % mix that I did {much easier to do this in smaller batches :-}. The end result I love…I ended up painting a beautiful French provincial china cabinet and desk with this color and really adore it. Both of these pieces are in the shop now at Stifel & Capra, so feel free to swing in and take a look at them in person! If you have mixed the colors, I’d love to hear about your experiments!
Beautiful China Cabinet also great for storing books and toys 🙂 $395
I love this desk! $325
