Today we’re sharing a short but informative compilation of how to choose the best Annie Sloan paint for your next project! If you haven’t heard yet, Annie Sloan’s new Satin Paint and Wall Paint have finally reached us in the US, and we are fully stocked. We absolutely love these new additions as they create a full ‘story’ for your spaces when combined together with Chalk Paint®.

Now, how are they different from the original Chalk Paint® and how do you know which is best to use for your projects? Firstly, while there are some colors repeated throughout all three paint lines, there are some only featured in the new collections or are even exclusive to the new collections (yes there are some gorgeous new colors NOT seen with Chalk Paint® before!). But as for choosing based on what your surface type is, where it’s located, and what your final look wants to be, see our lovely simplified chart below:

For square footage coverage:

• Chalk Paint® covers 150 SF per tin per coat

• Satin Paint covers 118.4 SF per tin per coat

• Wall Paint covers 387 SF per gallon per coat

Aaaannd, that’s it! Stay tuned for more projects and blog posts featuring these great new paint additions. In the meantime visit us at our Shop & Studio to see samples in-person and to shop all things paint (you can shop online with us too of course, but it’s more fun to see your faces).
