It is a colour of real presence and gathered, living depth, a blue-green that has arrived at something completely resolved and completely its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is not a colour that sits quietly. Florence transforms a piece the moment it is applied — giving it a quality of considered, accumulated beauty and quiet, gathered authority that makes it the natural centre of any room it inhabits. Use it on a single statement piece and it will hold the space with complete conviction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eColour Companions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eLight \u0026amp; Open\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePure\u003c\/strong\u003e — bright and completely open, alongside Florence it creates a combination of real freshness and considered, luminous contrast\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eParis Grey\u003c\/strong\u003e — cool and quietly considered, it gives Florence a softness and a quality of gathered, open sophistication\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTonal Blues\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLouis Blue\u003c\/strong\u003e — warm and quietly refined, alongside Florence it builds a palette of real considered ease and gathered, tonal beauty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAubusson Blue\u003c\/strong\u003e — deep and richly gathered, alongside Florence it creates a tonal palette of real complexity and accumulated, layered depth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFinishing Touches\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClear Wax\u003c\/strong\u003e — preserves the full jewel-bright depth of Florence exactly as it is\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDark Wax\u003c\/strong\u003e — deepens Florence into something richer and more atmospheric, adding a beautiful sense of age and gathered character\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow to Apply\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFlorence covers beautifully in two coats, its jewel-bright depth building with each layer into a finish of real, considered beauty. Its intensity deepens as it dries — always let each coat dry fully before assessing coverage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Chalk Paint® Difference\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnnie Sloan invented Chalk Paint® in 1990 and it changed furniture painting forever. The formula is water-based, ultra-low VOC (2.2g\/l), and virtually odour-free — and it bonds to almost any surface without the stripping, sanding, or priming that traditional paints demand. One tin, one brush, and you're ready to go.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt works on timber, metal, concrete, brick, laminate, and plastic. Indoors or out. Smooth and matte or heavily textured. The finish is entirely yours to decide.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBefore You Begin\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eGive your tin a good stir — no shaking needed. Load your brush and work in smooth, even strokes. One coat often surprises you with how much it covers; a second coat gives you full, solid opacity. Always let each coat dry completely before continuing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMaking It Your Own\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuild up thick layers for a sculptural, impasto effect, then seal with wax\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSand back lightly once dry to reveal what's underneath and create genuine, earned wear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdd a little water to thin the paint into a translucent wash that lets the wood grain breathe through\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlend colours directly on the piece — Chalk Paint® mixes beautifully for completely custom results\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSealing \u0026amp; Protection\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnnie Sloan Clear Wax is the classic finish — it protects and adds a subtle, natural sheen. Dark Wax settles into mouldings and edges for depth and shadow. For outdoor pieces or high-traffic surfaces, Annie Sloan Lacquer gives a harder, weather-resistant finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eA Few Questions We Hear Often\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWill it work outside?\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes — seal it with Annie Sloan Lacquer and it will handle the elements beautifully.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eDoes it have to be sealed?\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNot always. Decorative pieces that won't see daily wear can be left as they are. For anything that gets touched, wiped, or sat on regularly, wax or lacquer will protect your work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eCan I mix my own colours?\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAbsolutely — it's one of the great joys of Chalk Paint®. Mix directly in the tin or on the piece itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWhich brush should I use?\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAnnie Sloan's Flat Brush gives a smooth, even finish.
