Chalk paint is the perfect choice for creating distressed and elegant effects on furniture, frames, shelving and flea market finds and Porter Paints’ Chalk Emulsion and Annie Sloan’s Chalk Paint are two of the best in the business.
Both have a decorative matt finish, with a chalky soft appearance that covers easily and is self priming, you don’t even need to remove old wax, paint or varnish! Coming in more colours than you can count, many effects are possible. Try using one or two colours for distressing with sandpaper, or watering it down a little or a lot for washed effects and for sealing.

also Websters Chalk Paint Powder which is a new product to Oz shores and can be mixed with any Acrylic paint for an endless colour range! Will be selling it on my store soon and it is hitting other states with a range of retailers and workshops 🙂
Hi Olivia, thanks for sharing how fab @anniesloan decorative Chalk Paint™ is – for DIY dummys like me its super easy and fun to get painting and up-cylcing without the nasty pre-prep!
I’d love to know which one works the best. Anyone out there used both and care to offer an opinion?
Olivia will be trying out Annie Sloan as soon as she finds the right piece of furniture to upcycle!
Hi, just wondering where these 2 products are available
