French Linen is now packaged in Litres rather than quart containers. The color has shifted just slightly - in the Litre, French Linen is more of a gray! It is an obvious change though if you are putting this against the French Linen for pre-2019. There is no green! Some say French Linen is a puddy. Or the color of cement. (NOTE THE PAINT IS SLIGHTLY THICKER) PACKAGING CHANGED TO LITRES! ~ 1 Litre will cover around 120 square feet...give or take!

Chalk Paint®? by Annie Sloan is sold all over the world. Russia, Germany, Spain, Australia, South Africa, Japan, Italy, Greece and Mars. (only joking about Mars....but, maybe someday!) Through our 2019.....the packaging of paint will be transitioning so all countries are aligned and in the USA, the 32 ounce quart (being a little redundant there......lol) containers will be going to litres...which is around 34 ounces. T Besides the change of more paint- the litre's lids are just a little different and take a softer hand to open and close. Use a paint can opener and wiggle it around the lid completely.

You will find the French Linen in the litres will be slightly thicker- here are some tips when using:
1. A light touch with your brush is needed. It spreads much more easily than trying to push the paint around. Using an Annie Sloan paint brush is important.
2. A spray bottle will be your new best friend and you may find it will really help if you are painting in a linear motion.
3. Use your fine mist spray bottle to wet sand with Annie's sanding pads. You will find that it distresses the paint beautifully!

Annie Sloan's French Linen is a incredible color. It is a taupey-grey...BUT more taupe!

To me it rivals a piece from Pottery Barn. It is a timeless & classic color. Again - it is a taupe with a bit of grey to it compared to a similar Chalk Paint® color, called Coco. Coco is more brown. For kitchen cabinets - depending on your counter tops - I love painting French Linen on the base and Old White on the upper cabinets! According to Annie Sloan herself, "A cool neutral inspired by the colour of aged natural linen. This khaki grey works beautifully with golds and a range of rich and bright colours such as Emile and Emperor's Silk."

Don't forget when purchasing Chalk Paint® Decorative Paint by Annie Sloan- to consider purchasing her Clear Wax also. Annie's paint and wax were created to partner perfectly together! The paint itself will harden but the wax will truly protect it! The wax does completely harden and it becomes hard and is water repellent. It is a wonderful protective finish that you can buff once dry- to the sheen you desire.

**** We are sorry – there are NO RETURNs when it comes to paint. You will find this for every stockist. Think about it- would you ever want a quart of paint sent to you - that was shipped to someone else prior? We eliminate any potential issues with this policy.

With that said- we apologize for any issues this may cause. Choose wisely and do not spontaneously purchase a color if unsure. OK? In fact- if you need help in deciding- ask us. We are here to help you! : )
