We combine years of design experience with high-quality paints, fabrics, and finishes that will bring vibrant, lasting color to even the most well-worn furniture and decorative pieces. We take regular furniture and repurpose it into art. Using Annie Sloan's incredibly popular collection of Chalk Paint, our certified Stockists are here to make your vision a reality.

As well as authoring over 20 internationally sold books, Annie Sloan transformed the world of furniture painting with the creation of her own brand of decorative paint, Chalk Paint, in 1990. Annie's fine-art background and contagious enthusiasm for decorative painting has motivated both home painters and experienced professionals, unlocking countless creative potentials over the last 30 years.

They carry Annie Sloan paint and finishes. They are very helpful if you have questions about how to apply your paint or wax. They also have different classes where you can learn to use the paint. They have available blocks of wood painted with a different colors and waxes so you can see exactly what you're getting, which is very helpful by the way.

Pros: Only retailer in the area with Annie Sloan paint
Cons: Pressure to buy more than I wanted to/could afford
When I came in I told the woman at the counter that I was after a specific color of AS paint. They had that, and I was satisfied, knowing that the paint was pricey.
I asked about the AS wax, not really set on buying it because I thought that would be pricey too and it was. I had read online before I came that the wax was not permanent and would need reapplied occasionally, especially on furniture that was touched a lot, like the piece I intend to use it on, and that wax isn’t necessarily

Unique shop, great people.
Believe my engaged on having some work done at our house. Look forward to seeing the results.
Results are fantastic. Transformed our kitchen without replacing cabinets at high cost. Time and effort are a value add to results. Clean, personable and perfection.
Great job!

We can’t say enough about the talent that Laura has! She has breathed new life into some of our most beloved pieces of furniture that we thought we couldn’t use in our new home. We are so grateful!

Love this place. I took a class here on how to use Annie Sloan chalk paints to refinish an old dresser last year and am now working on two more and just completed refinishing a bed. The women here are an amazing resource and can help you with any project along with the fabulous work they do on their own. The shop has beautiful pieces of furniture and decoration along with all kinds of paint and refurbishing supplies.

Horrible, horrible customer service! I usually do not review places and I was taught if I do not have anything nice to say, don't say it at all. However, I have never met a more rude sales person in my life. She was condescending and gave off the impression that I was inconveniencing her. I'd rather drive 100 miles for chalk paint than visit this store again.
Laura, I appreciate your response and trying to find out what had happened. However, the experience that your daughter is reporting is not what had happened. When I asked for help and info on the product, she sighed and stayed in a very rude

Really liked this shop, but will not be shopping here again. Tried to return a $16 unopened half pint of stain. The owner said that she was unable to provide a refund because it was past 30 days, which I completely understand. However, what I don't understand is that after all the money I spent there over the past year, she was unwilling to even do an exchange for me. Very poor customer service.
