Annie Sloan Chalk Paint Green Custom Color Swatches
Here is a new page in my Annie Sloan Chalk Paint Color Swatch Book. It combines the color cards for the additional green colors you can mix, by using Antibes Green + English Yellow, Antibes Green+ Arles and Florence + English Yellow, and Florence + Arles. It also shows the results when these new custom colors are blended with varying amounts of Pure White to make tints.
I physically mixed these colors and scanned them into my computer from my project and color journals. The colors are accurate, as much as they can be. Remember, however, actual paint samples look different than those on a computer display. The names for these additional green colors are mine and not official Annie Sloan Chalk Paint colors, although I did use ASCP to create them. The numbers on each color card represent the equal proportion of each color to the other. Please let me know if you have any questions.

I like Annie Sloan Chalk Paint for my craft and furniture projects, but for walls nothing compares to Pure & Original Fresco Lime Paint. I love the natural variations of shades and tones the lime creates within one paint color. You have to see how gorgeous it is! Checkout my most recent interior design make overs with Fresco. It can be purchased online at www.502paint.com
P.S Pure and Original also makes a chalk based paint called Classico in 140 colors! Its amazing too!

Color + White = Tint
Annie Sloan Chalk Paint Color Wheel
Annie Sloan Chalk Paint Color Wheel. Color + Old White = Tints. Different amounts of Old White (or Pure White) combined with a color will yield a progression. This is helpful in extending your range of colors no matter what type of paint you are using.
Each color was hand painted and scanned into my computer for color accuracy. However, colors displayed on computer screens are likely to be different from one computer, ipad, iphone to the next. The only way to ensure color accuracy is to view a hand painted sample in person, in different lighting situations. Something I have learned the hard way, with a lot of practice and mistakes.
Mixing standard colors in different amounts and combinations is a great way to create a diverse and unique color palette. To see some the custom colors you can make from Annie Sloan Chalk Paint®, see my posts, Mixing for Green, Mixing for Purple, and Mixing for Orange.
