Annie Sloan Chalk Paint™ – CAPABILITY GREEN

This warm natural green has been developed to celebrate the great English outdoors.  It is inspired by the beautiful gardens to bring a tranquil feel to your home

The name is a nod to the lush gardens of the 18th Century English landscape gardener Lancelot “Capability” Brown, who remains to this day the most celebrated English gardener. His greatest works merged the rolling landscape of untamed country parks with flower gardens and ha-ha walls.

A colour that is gentle and soothing to the eye, Capability Green works well with most other colours in the palette, but particularly well as a neutral base alongside blues, pinks and yellows.

In 1990, frustrated with the lack of decorative furniture paint options available at the time, Annie created the iconic, revolutionary Chalk Paint™. The invention of Chalk Paint™ resulted from Annie’s need for a paint that could be used to achieve endless decorative effects – and quickly.

Chalk Paint™ satisfies that brief perfectly, as it can be applied to wood, glass, metal, brick and even laminate, left to dry, and then waxed within one day. With its remarkable versatility and ease of use – for everyone from the amateur DIYer to the professional interior designer to enjoy.
