This plain, solid wood blanket box, was given a complete makeover using olive green chalk paint, with charcoal wax and an Efex trim for extra detail.
Technique:
We added the Efex trim using Ados F2 contact adhesive.
Once dry we painted in Olea chalk paint, a beautiful olive green. We painted with our round pro-hybrid brush in all directions to create subtle texture.
We then create 'age spots' by flicking watered-down Clubhouse Grey chalk paint using an old artist brush. We finished with a light Clubhouse Grey coloured wax to create age and depth and blended with clear wax and added a very light touch of gold gilding wax to bring faded charm to the moulding.

This was originally painted in Vintro paints but we have updated the colours below for The Artisan Company premium paint range.
