Annie Sloan Antoinette Chalk Paint is a soft, dusky pale pink inspired by decorative 18th-century French furniture and interiors. Its delicate pastel tone was inspired by the traditional use of red earth pigment mixed with white to create a soft pink shade.

Antoinette is a beautiful choice for furniture painting and upcycling when you want a gentle, elegant colour. Its soft appearance works particularly well on French-style furniture, bedside tables, dressing tables, cupboards and decorative pieces.

How to Use Chalk Paint

  • For best results apply the paint with either a chalk paint brush or flat brush.
  • Once you have finished painting, we always recommend using either an Annie Sloan Chalk Paint Wax or chalk paint Lacquer to seal and finish. Apply with a wax brush or soft cloth.
  • You can use a Sanding pad to smooth the paint or create an aged effect.
  • Please be aware that the colour shades may look different on your computer screen to real life. For a true representative we strongly advise to use the hand painted colour card.
  • We offer all paints in either a 120 ml tester pot or 1 litre tins.
  • A one litre tin will cover approximately 13 square metres.
