Amsterdam Green - Annie Sloan Chalk Paint
This deep, dark green Chalk Paint™ colour takes inspiration from the painted shutters and doors of Amsterdam.
It works particularly well with whites and creams and botanical imagery and plants, as well as looking brilliant with earthy yellows and reds – try teaming it with Primer Red, Arles and Old Ochre.
It also makes a great backdrop to cool blues, such as Provence, Giverny and the purple tones of Emile.

There's no need to sand or prime, just dip in your brush and away you go.
