I know, this says milk paint, but I told you I was going to give you a comprehensive list. You can learn more about this product, here, and order, here. You can see a project of mine with this product, here. They recommend 3 coats to seal this paint. I was excited to see them create it as I’m a big fan of General Finishes products. This chalk-style paint by General Finishes is still pretty new. You can see projects of mine with these products, here and here. She has a nice range of colors and other complementary products, as well. I have used Amy Howard’s One Step Paint (and a couple of other products of hers too) and loved it.Īnd it’s called one-step paint because no sealing is required. Other than that, I don’t know too much about this one yet. So that’s a plus! I do plan to give this one a go sometime soon. I haven’t tried it yet but apparently, you can get it in your local Target. Joanna Gaines has a new chalk-style paint for furniture out now, too. You can see projects of mine using these paints, here, here, and here.
It has a low odor and does require a topcoat. I find this paint to be very similar to Annie Sloan Chalk Paint and have found it to be a very good chalk-style paint for furniture. I recently ordered the color shown above and “Coastal Blue” and am excited to try them out! If you follow along with me on Instagram, you probably already saw this in my stories. Well, in the color “Linen” which is a nice shade of clean white. Rustoleum’s Chalked paint is one I’ve been using a lot of lately. If I remember, I had good results with it but I just no longer really see it anywhere and don’t have a retailer near me.ĬeCe Caldwell paint is a “natural chalk-clay paint for furniture” and requires a top coat to seal. I actually played around with this paint years ago! They have some great colors and I love that it’s non-toxic and a natural chalk-style paint for furniture. You can order, here, and can find more info, here. You can see projects of mine using Chalk Paint, here, here, here…and kitchen cabinets, here. I’ve used it to paint just about anything and everything, even upholstery. No worries there since you can thin it with water.
Those who have been around my blog for any amount of time know that I am a huge fan.Īnnie Sloan Chalk Paint does require a top coat to seal and it can be a bit on the thick side. She IS Chalk Paint, the original creator of this popular product. She created this amazing paint and is the main reason (I believe) many of these other paints followed not long behind. Let’s start with the main chalk-style paint for furniture (and more!)… Whether it’s just cleaning off grime, dirt, and dust or sanding a super shiny surface, both are considered “prep” in my book.Įach individual piece you paint will require some level of prep, no matter which chalk-style paint for furniture you choose. I’m not really going to talk about the prep required for each because I believe all paints require some amount of prep work. Some require a top/seal coat, some do not. Some are acrylic but with them having some of the same properties as chalk-style paint, I included them. Most of these paints are “chalk” or “mineral”, natural type paints. Love painting furniture? Then this list is a great starting place for you.
Or maybe you don’t even know some of these brands yet. I hope this will be a nice comprehensive list for you in case you are confused about the different brands, what they do, where to buy, and what they offer. I used them on dressers, nightstands, tables, picture frames, crafts, and more. I have used quite a few of the chalk-style paints I’m sharing below.
I actually wrote a post on exactly that, if you want to take a look. Lamps, trays, lampshades, metal, baskets, and more. Chalk style paint for furniture….and pretty much anything else you want to paint. If you love to repurpose old finds or just about anything crafty, you are in the right place. If you are a busy furniture painter or love making over your own pieces, you are in the right place.
