Florence
A rich jewel green inspired by malachite, a copper mineral and semi-precious stone that was used as a pigment in paints until about 1800.

Paris Grey
This is a soft and slightly bluish grey, and is the colour most associated with painted furniture in an elegant French chateau or in an old Swedish manor house. It works like a dream with Old White of course but it looks great distressed over the lavender blue of Old Violet. One of our other favorites is Paris Grey over Cream. Add a touch of gilding, and the look is complete. $51.95 + Shipping (Calculated at Check Out) |

Primer Red
Deep red ochre is a color found in practically every culture from Venetian palaces to Vietnamese temples. Red earths were plentiful and relatively easy to come by so the color is often associated with the color for priming furniture and as the base coat for gilding. It is a wonderful color on its own or as a base for other colors particularly when distressing. $51.95 + Shipping (Calculated at Check Out) |

Versailles
A soft delicate lightly yellowed dusky green that is sophisticated and gentle yet it works well with modern pieces too. This is a color which picks up other colors well and changes character accordingly. With pinks, creams and whites it looks back to the French court of Versailles but with turquoise blues, duck egg blues and chocolate browns it is a sassy modern color. $51.95 + Shipping (Calculated at Check Out) |

Soft Wax - Clear
The wax is the consistency of soft margarine in a tub so it is easy to apply using a paint brush, cloth, or sponge. It is completely colorless and has very little odor. The wax will protect all interior wooden/painted surfaces. It is water repellent so it can be used on dining room tables and in kitchens. We recommend applying the paint and waxing it for the best results. Wax can be tinted with Chalk Paint to make a colored wax. The wax is formulated using white spirit and is made without dangerous quick drying solvents that can be found in similar products. $39.95 + Shipping (Calculated at Check Out) |

Soft Wax - Dark
Use Annie Sloan’s Dark Wax in combination with Clear wax to age and give texture to your piece. Apply the clear wax first and then apply the dark wax with a brush or rag, wiping off any excess. The clear wax can also be used to take more dark wax off, depending on the desired effect. The dark wax can be tinted with Chalk Paint to lighten or darken. $39.95 + Shipping (Calculated at Check Out) |
Message from Annie Sloan:
Made of pure bristle, this is a great brush for painting, particularly to achieve texture. It is oval, with a metal ferule and wooden handle.
These type of brushes have always been my favourite as they allow you to paint expressively as the bristle is strong and firm but pliable. They can also be used for applying wax.
