Annie Sloan Chalk Paint Tutorial No. 2: two-colour distressing technique with clear wax

September 28, 2012

Here’s the second of — hopefully many — tutorials by Annie Sloan. Here she uses Old White with Duck Egg Blue underneath, then does a slight distressing so the blue shows through.

I love this quote…
“You need to use as big a brush as you can handle. You don’t want to be hanging around. Get on with it…is the idea.”

And that is the idea! Don’t worry about being precise or perfect. Don’t think too much about it. Just have fun and be creative.
