Annie Sloan, CBE, invented her revolutionary furniture paint, Chalk Paint™, in 1990 and hasn’t stopped refining and improving her formula since. She is widely considered one of the world’s leading authorities in paint, colour and style. In 2023, Annie was appointed Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE) for services to interior design.
Chalk Paint™ is the versatile furniture paint developed by Annie Sloan in 1990. With no need for sanding or priming, you can simply pop open the tin, roll up your sleeves, dip in your brush and apply paint to furniture. Works on wood, metal, laminate, concrete, indoors, outdoors and beyond.

SILK FINISH
The silk finish range is 100% washable, no sealer needed and easy to use.
It is the perfect choice for those who like to paint and go, more suited to smooth clean looks than textured looks.
How to Use
• Self sealing, low sheen finish.
• Always do a test patch to see if this product is right for your project.
• Easy to clean and stain-resistant finish.
• Minimal prep is required on your projects. Brush, roller or spray.
• Clean substrate, sand flaking paint off, lightly scuff shiny surfaces to promote
adhesion.
• For best results use a synthetic smooth flat brush in nice even smooth strokes.
• Sealing, waxing and top coating are not required.
• In some cases, you may find some substrates may have tannin bleed-through.
Should this happen, use our base & blocker to prevent further staining.
• 200ml will cover approx 2-3 square metres and 600ml will cover approx 7-8
square metres in normal conditions. This will definitely depend on the colour
choice, whites will require more coats hence cover less square metres.
• Drying Times Touch: 30 Minutes(at 25 °C) ; Recoat: 4 Hours(at 25 °C).
• Cure time 7 days.
• Modern sleek matte to low sheen finish.
• Able to be shabbied up as you do with Chalk paints.
• note- the Silk Finish range has a built in sealer, our sealers can certainly be used
on top for extra durability, our waxes are not suitable to use as they may just slide
around and not absorb into the coating.

The IOD Moulds are made from food safe materials (do not use the same set for food and crafts) and can be used to transform and create baked goods, furniture, soaps, jewelry, and just about anything you can think up in that creative brain of yours.
DIFFERENT MEDIUMS.
IOD Moulds can be used with many different mediums. We will cover the two most common here. Every medium has its own characteristics, challenges, and virtues.
Air dry clay, or paper clay: IOD paper clay is an air-dry medium, and one of our favorites. Like most paper pulp-based air-dry clays, some shrinking, warping, and cracking is inherent. We like these qualities for a distressed, authentically vintage look. Our favorite way to apply molded pieces is to remove them from the mold while still moist and adhere to the surface with the appropriate glue so it conforms well. For vertical surfaces, use a piece of low tack tape to hold it in place so it doesn’t slide.
Casting resins: There are some great pourable resins available. These have completely different qualities than the paper clay. There is no shrinking or warping, and the castings are more consistent. Depending on the project, these qualities can be helpful. If you need to conform them to a curved surface, this can be done if removed from the mold before it’s completely hardened.
On releases: We find that most of the time a release is not necessary, and the casting will come out without the use of a release, however, if you are having trouble with the material sticking (more common with clays than resins), a light dusting of simple cornstarch or arrowroot is a great choice.
