Remember, if you paint it and you go ‘Oh, I don’t like it’… Well, maybe it’s the wrong colour, and it’s to do with the room you’re in. Second coat now and it’s the same as the first coat! So lots of people say ‘Gosh, you make it look so easy and it’s not so easy’ – it really, really is easy. So that’s what I was trying to do – something quick and something that would be easy to do, and that’s what it is. And what I needed was something that would be quick to do, so that when I collected them in mid afternoon it would all be back to normal. Why? How? How did all this happen? So I was a mother of three small children and they were at school. So no priming, no prepping, no sanding, just paint! You might have noticed there’s no sanding, no priming. And just brush over, every which way, be quick, it’s not little tiny, tiny brush strokes – it’s big brush strokes and cover it all over. So if you’re holding it like that… even touching there, so you’ve got real purchase. So hold the brush like that – you’re not doing this and don’t flip it back and forward.
Really, we’re just talking about painting. So actually I’d probably open the drawers up, but I’m not going to bother this time. Here’s me with my paintbrush and glasses on… and ready to go.
If it’s cold – really, really, really cold – you might let it get up to room temperature. Ooh, look at that, it’s beautifully thick paint isn’t it? Look at that! If you want to – if it’s very hot weather – you might add a bit of water. It’s quite shiny, it’s a sort of 30s little cabinet, I’ve taken the handles off so I’m ready to paint.Ī lot of people use white, this is my Old White. Hello, I’m Annie Sloan and welcome to my beautiful studio! It’s back to basics time.
