We find it's the very best paint to use on furniture and are proud to be associated with Annie Sloan.
In addition to buying paint for use on your furniture we also offer a range of workshops which can be booked online or you can drop in or call us to make a booking. We keep the numbers small so that you get the most out of the workshop.
