How to paint with Chalk Paint® in Lem Lem

- Annie Sloan shows you how to paint with Chalk Paint® in Lem Lem, her special, limited edition colour in collaboration with Oxfam. Every pot of Lem Lem sold will raise vital funds for Oxfam, helping people beat poverty worldwide.
Annie Sloan developed her unique and versatile decorative paint, Chalk Paint®, in 1990. She wanted to create one paint that could achieve several different techniques and finishes - from creating a textured chippy look to achieving a smooth modern finish, or even creating a wash. Annie's paint is non toxic, low VOC, and very easy to work with. There's no need to prime or sand before starting - you can just get stuck straight in to the fun bit!

What a beautiful uplifting colour!
The best to the point & straightforward instructive videos I have found. Thank you so very much. 😊
I have recently started upcycling furniture - some I already owned, but looked a bit dated & boring, and some I have purchased from local charity shops. I'm really happy to have saved these items from landfill.
My pine furniture has a new lease of life and different styles look great together once all are colour co-ordinated. I have lovely Alstons wardrobe and dressing tables in a dull beige like colour, along with a dark wood bed - they are now all painted in a light grey colour for a guest bedroom. With grey and yellow soft furnishings and accessories I now have a lovely room that impresses all of my overnight guests - and I am thrilled that it cost me so little to achieve. 👍🏻😊
I'm totally sold on the idea & shall be checking many more of your videos. Thank you once again.
Wow, thank you so much for your comment! We love to hear feedback like this. Painting boring pine can be fabulous. And I love that you're reusing furniture.
I love how you came up with this idea of this color. Every color has it own meaning🍈
Thank you for making this colour. I picked up my first big tin of Lem Lem today and I am over the moon with excitement. And then on the ride home today, from buying your paint, I found a free small piece of furniture on the side of the road. PS: I also got Greek Blue for something for Hubby. Last weekend I got your English Yellow. And it was my first time using your paint and I cannot say thank you enough. The shopped owner gave me a demo and was just wonderful. Really an excellent experience. Cheers, Ivy.
That is so wonderful to hear!!!
Lovely! Thank you for supporting OxFam. God bless.
I love your paint colors. Your demos are great because you go straight to the product and the demo.
Thanks Catherine!
Once again you have created a color that will inspire so many to create and re-create. Thank you Annie Sloan! I feel honored to have you showing me your very own techniques. 😀
this colour's gorgeous!
Love Chalk Paint, it's so versatile.
i am SO thankful for your clarity on how to chalk paint! You gave me answers on brushes, waxing, etc that I had to wade through so much other information in other videos. I am embarking on my first piece, an old church pew my church gave away when we switched to chairs. I have a big dining room and plan to chalk paint the pew, have a new seating pad made for it, then decorate it with an array of pillow and place it in front of my three dining room windows. After watching your videos, I feel confidant to begin!! Thanks!
Exactly the inspiration I needed! Thank you very much for this.
Annie-I like the idea to make such colours for furnitures.In this days many young people throw the old furnitures away,but this is a beautiful way to make them looking much better than before and this old furnitures are made of wood and from good quality.I painted my kitchen in a white colour,the furnitures on the corridor in Louis-Blue and the living-room in Cream.It looks so good-and I tell other people that they can do that with their old furnitures too.Thank you for showing it to us...The best idea to save good old furnitures.
You are so welcome!! Thank you for commenting, I love reading feedback like this 💜
I love that! So beautiful!
Beautiful! You've inspired this California girl! Thank you so much for the demonstration. So easy to learn from you, and so appreciated!
Aw thanks Lisa, have fun with your Chalk Paint® endeavours!
Thank you Annie! For another beautiful color and for your videos!
I love this color, the story behind it’s creation and of course, the cause buying it will support! I have got to find something to paint with it now! 😆
Love love this happy colour
I love Lem Lem! Going to paint a small table with it!
Love this color Annie.❤️
We think it's rather gorgeous!
So beautiful and thanks on the tips about the type of wood. I have a pine vanish chest and now I can paint it..
Thank you. ❤️
This would look great in my sons room, beautiful.
Thank you so much. I hope you give it a try!
You can’t say Lem Lem without a smile on your face!
Why was the colour Lem lem discontinued? It’s a gorgeous green? Please let me know 🇨🇦🤗🙋♀️❤️
BEAUTIFUL
What a wonderful charity foundation.
I have a very large Chester drawer set ... there is edging only top and bottom of the piece. I did not use a color underneath my very pale slate blue , my question is can I lightly go over the blue with a black chalk paint and even a little white also? Then was thinking of distressing it after I had the three colors on. I have no handles .... was going to do a stencil maybe . This is my first piece and the largest furniture in my apt. Maybe should have started smaller piece...lol
Thank you if you have any suggestions.
SmallTown Girl what is a Chester drawer? Lol. Are you asking about how to paint a CHEST OF DRAWERS? Chester is not a description for a piece of furniture. Lol
Where can I find your paints.
Very beautiful.
Brava annie 😍
Annie, I purchased some Lem-Lem today, including clear wax [for all over] and some black and white wax for detailing. Which of the two would you suggest? I know it's personal taste, but I wanted to get your opinion...it's for a dressing table with Queen Anne legs and some scalloped borders.
Hi Catia, I think White Wax would look wonderfully romantic on a French piece like that, especially on the pastel colour of Lem Lem. - Amy W
I want to paint a dated pine dresser. It has a few divots on the doors and I would like to have a smooth and modern finish rather than the vintage look. What type of brush should I use for this please? Also, do I need to sand to get a smoother effect? Thanks
Hi Julia, if you would like to remove the divots to create this smooth finish I would recommend you sand them to begin with and then apply the Chalk Paint. Enjoy!
Annie, what can I do to thicken my paint? I bought a quart of Antibes Green from my local stockist and it’s quite thin. I have stirred and stirred but it’s still very thin. Should I leave the cover off? Thank you.
Just leave the cover off for a few hours or even overnight.
You remind me of Bob Ross
I really need to find this color. Can you please assist. I have to have this color
Hi Debby, this colour is Lem Lem which is currently archived. However, your local Stockist may be able to help if they have stock. You can find your nearest Stockist here: www.anniesloan.com/stockists/
New to chalk painting... need advice.

Could I apply an oil-based clear varnish on your chalk paint? I'm painting a large kitchen table and want to avoid stains, marks, scratches. Thank you.
Hi there, you could apply an oil varnish, however this may yellow over time. We would recommend using a water-base varnish if you wanted something harder wearing., or use our oil-based Wax.
Thank you so much for replying. Love your paint.
I have a friend that did all there cupboards with your paint but did not use the clear wax, they used one of your dark waxes. I have not seen a video with anyone using the dark wax. Do you have one you can tell me about. I am going to do my cupboards and I am trying to learn as much as I can.
Hi Linda, we have a video on Dark Wax here: czcams.com/video/BWrEfpCEVZE/video.html
Dark Wax is for visual impact, you would need to work with it in conjunction with Clear Wax to get the best protection.
Linda Bell there are tons of videos on CZcams that show how to use dark wax. Just search for them. Easy peasy
Can I use this on a desk that I will be using everyday at work? Will it come off?
Not if you use Chalk Paint® Wax with it! It may be worth re-waxing yearly or when you see suitable.
Don’t we have to prime before paint
No lacquer needed?
You should protect your paintwork with either Chalk Paint® Wax or Lacquer. It's really a matter of personal choice. Both our Chalk Paint® Wax and Lacquer will seal the paint and protect all of your beautiful paintwork. They also make it wipeable/water repellant. I personally love using wax to finish cabinets as it gives them a beautiful mellow finish. Some people prefer Lacquer and find it to be slightly more durable in a hard-working area. It's available in both matt and gloss, and it's also UV resistant which can be good for protecting your paint colour in a very bright, sunny kitchen. Consider reaching out to your Annie Sloan Stockist to learn more about each and to actually see and feel the differences. You can find your local Stockist here: www.anniesloan.com/stockists/#/.
Insprired!
Wish you'd keep your tins cleaner lol and less dripping down the sides
I want to paint my brown living room tables gray and white. Should I use the gray chalk paint first and dry brush with the white or painted white first and dry brush with the gray? Please help!!!
Hi Sheila, I would suggest a two colour distress! Paint it white first followed by grey and then sand back in places. See the video here: czcams.com/video/kpYgfpFtWNw/video.html

Boyadan sonra vernik kullanıyorsunuz.
Yapabilir veya bir balmumu cilası uygulayabilirsiniz.
I'm going to use Lem Lem on a side table and a rattan coffee table. Then my goal is to use it on a TV cabinet.
