"Spring cleaning" is a phrase repeated every year. Its power, however, does not expire, because after each winter we yearn for a new beginning. With the blossoming of plants, the budding of flowers and the burst of greenery, something changes in us, too, and we feel the desire to refresh our surroundings. Garden furniture needs a boost every now and then, often experienced by cold and frost. That boost can be the right paints!
I created Chalk Paint™ thirty years ago because I needed an all-purpose paint that could be used on almost any surface, without the need for priming or sanding , Annie Sloan recalls.
Eliminating the hassle of preparing furniture for painting was a total breakthrough. Thanks to my chalk paints, people fell in love with furniture restoration again. Three decades later, over-consumption is a huge problem in our society, so giving old things a whole new look through color is not only good for the wallet, but also for the planet. This means that by painting and reclaiming, you prevent the destruction of rainforests, eliminate carbon emissions from manufacturing and transportation processes, and save perfectly usable furniture from ending up in a landfill!

The biggest benefit of DIY, however, will be to your psyche. For me, painting is the best way to de-stress. Finding a creative and soothing activity is especially important today, in these worrying times, in a world paralyzed by pandemics ," Annie declares.
