NO SANDING LAYERED LOOK USING CHALK PAINT®BY ANNIE SLOAN
NO SANDING LAYERED LOOK PEOPLE. So here is the thing, you can get this look two ways, layering the paint and then sanding through each layer, or as I was playing around with today and fell in love with, was layering, with large flat brush and chip brush alternatively. My base was French Linen, then Paris Grey, Old Violet, Old White, Provence, Florence. Then dry brushing French Linen and Old White again. This was on a old kitchen door believe or not and not even waxed yet. Tomorrow's job! Now just imagine on an old big Amore or something. Ouuuuu! love the fact I found a way without sanding.Hmmm! may have to introduce this to my Advance Class at the Big White Goose,what do you think?

Frequently asked questions
Have a question about this project?
That is GORGEOUS.
But I have to ask: How did you do the layering? I know the last couple of layers were dry-brushed in, but what about the rest? Just sort of going with it? Did you do a wash?
I Love this look I was thinking of a small kitchen open to living area maybe more of a lighter back ground but do you think it would be ok for kitchen cabinets?
I have a. Baby changing table that I want this look with base is white now I want to add pink and grey. So did you just brush and then dry then brush again? Never tried this before but learning as I go.
