Thanks for this, Amanda. I was thinking of trying this technique out, so will definitely give it a whirl now I’ve seen how easy you make it look. Kind regards from Penny in Liverpool 🇬🇧😊💕

Great painting clothes

I love your videos! Learned alot; here in Chile we don’t get the Annie Sloan chalk paint, but we do have some choices that work well; love the technique.

Thank you, I wish I looked so good when I was working😅

Did you seal the light colour before doing the wash?

[@angieknopp]

Love this! What would you seal it with?

[@SuitePieces]

Thanks Angie! You can seal this Jolie Wax (suitepieces.com/search?type=product,article,page&q=*jolie%20wax*) or Jolie Varnish (suitepieces.com/search?type=product,article,page&q=*jolie%20varnish%20*)

Nice techniques. Is this a white wash? I thought white wash is with white water down white paint or white glaze. This is more like dark glaze or antiquing technique. Thank you for tips.

[@SuitePieces]

Yes that is a wash technique (watering down the paint) ! This is just showing you, that you can do it in other colors than white

[@jenniferstrydom860]

What is in the spray bottle?

[@judynestibo3623]

do you think I could do this technique on some metal island pendants that are just not the right color for my renovated kitchen?

[@SuitePieces]

Absolutely! Just paint in thin coats and make sure. Each coat is completely dry

[@gtiernan1]

You can mix any chalk paint 50/50 with water, brush it on and wipe it off.

[@SuitePieces]

Yes

[@bobflowers2166]

Hi Amanda, how long do you need to have the base coat sit before color washing? Sandy

[@SuitePieces]

For Jolie Matte Finish Paint, at least 30 mins-1hr depending on humidity! If you are not in a rush, you could even wait until the next day. You'll know when its dry because the color will be all even and it won't feel cool or wet.

[@bobflowers2166]

@@SuitePieces Thank you so much!

[@bobflowers2166]

Amanda, you are so helpful and I love how you responded so quickly! I did wait over night and just did my 3rd top coat.

[@LalaMama272]

How would you seal this? I’m going to do a dresser and end table so will need to be sealed.

[@SuitePieces]

Seal with Jolie Topcoat Varnish or Wax

You’re not an Annie Sloan stockist any longer?

[@SuitePieces]

We are not. Check out this video explaining : kzbin.info/www/bejne/bqLHlKKofbKhopY
