A beginner’s guide to Chalk Paint® by Annie Sloan

By letter2self on May 27, 2023



Back to basics! Annie Sloan shows how to use Chalk Paint® to paint a small, shiny brown side table.

Step 1: No priming, no sanding, straight to the fun part! Start painting with Chalk Paint®.
Step 2: Once dry, apply a second coat of paint.
Step 3: Once dry, apply Chalk Paint® Wax with a brush or lint-free cloth.
Step 4: Finished! It’s really that easy.

Annie Sloan invented her revolutionary furniture paint, Chalk Paint®, in 1990 and hasn’t stopped refining and improving her formula since. There’s no need for priming or sanding. Chalk Paint® is as easy to use as opening the tin, dipping your brush, and applying paint to furniture! Annie wanted to create one paint that could achieve several different techniques and finishes – from creating a textured chippy look to achieving a smooth modern finish, or even creating a wash. Annie’s paint has minimal VOCs and is very easy to work with.
