Annie Sloan Coolabah Green Chalk Paint is a soft grey-green with a subtle blue tone and an elegant ‘eau de Nil’ character. The colour is named after the Coolabah eucalyptus tree, native to Australia, which Annie Sloan knew from her birthplace and childhood home.The evergreen leaves of the Coolabah tree inspired this distinctive grey-green furniture paint. Its muted character makes it an easy colour to live with, while the blue undertones give it more depth than a traditional sage green.Coolabah Green is a versatile choice for furniture painting and upcycling. It works beautifully on chests of drawers, cupboards, tables, chairs and other furniture where you want to introduce colour without using a particularly bright or dark shade.
Coolabah Green is an excellent choice if you’re looking for a soft grey-green furniture paint with subtle blue undertones rather than a bright emerald, deep forest or strongly yellow-green shade.
For best results, apply Annie Sloan Coolabah Green Chalk Paint with a Chalk Paint Brush or Flat Brush. Chalk Paint is designed for furniture painting and can be applied to a wide range of surfaces with minimal preparation.
Coolabah Green can be used as a single colour to create a calm and understated finish, or combined with other Chalk Paint colours to create contrast and depth. Its muted grey-green character works particularly well on cupboards, dressers, tables, chairs and sideboards.
For a vintage or aged appearance, allow the paint to dry and then lightly sand selected areas around edges, corners and decorative details. This can create a gently distressed finish that works particularly well on traditional and painted furniture.
For a more contemporary look, leave the finish relatively smooth and combine Coolabah Green with neutral shades such as Country Grey or Paris Grey. The blue undertones of the green help prevent the overall colour scheme from feeling too warm.
Once the paint has dried, protect your finished furniture with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint Wax or Lacquer. Wax is ideal for indoor furniture, while Lacquer provides a more durable protective finish where required.
One litre of Annie Sloan Chalk Paint covers approximately 13 square metres. Actual coverage will vary depending on the surface and application.
