It is official! The Painted Perch will be carrying a new line of paint in Knoxville, TN, expected to be available in October. Maison Blanche La Craie, it is Chalk Paint which you may have heard of other brands such as Annie Sloan's Chalk Paint or Ce Ce Caldwell's Clay/Chalk Paint. I have been fortunate enough to try all three brands and could not be more thrilled to carry Maison Blanche. In case you have not heard of chalk paint here is a description of it Maison Blanches La Craie.
The word La Craie is French for "the
chalk". Our exclusive formula contains calicium carbonade allowing
adhesion to almost any surface. La Craie was designed with you, the
creative and conscious consumer, in mind.
La Craie dries to a soft, velvety finish
and is extremely low in organic volatile compounds, making it a green
and eco-friendly alternative to oil based paints so often used on
furniture. This water based paint has little to no odor; you can create
your masterpiece just about anywhere without fear of reprisal from your
delicate senses.
La Craie has been carefully refined and
perfected to the last drop. It has been specially formulated for
painting furniture, cabinetry, and trim. Silky and smooth, the paint can
be applied using a variety of techniques in addition to 'straight from
the can'. It can also be used to top off any existing furniture finish,
without the need for stripping, sanding, or priming. La Craie will
adhere to most surfaces. Add a bit of water and try it as a color wash.
If you prefer your paint a bit thicker, simply leave the lid off for
awhile. Use one color or layer several. Finish and protect with La Cire
wax.
And here are the AMAZING colors
