    About this ebook

    With this book in one hand and a brush in the other, you can learn how to create different finishes and effects with paint to change everyday rooms and furnishings into something special, all for the price of a pot of paint. The first section of the book tells you everything you need to know before you start - how to prepare surfaces properly, choose the right paint for the right place, use the best tools and select a colour scheme that will work with the room in question. 50 different techniques follow, with step-by-step photos showing you how to achieve the finished look, accompanied by inspirational photos showing the effect used on walls and doors, furniture and floors. Learn how to update old secondhand furniture, or how to give modern pieces a softly-aged appearance, all with the aid of a pot of paint and a brush. Whatever the style of your interiors, Quick and Easy Paint Transformations will show you the best way to makeover your home.By leading the decorative painting revolution over the last 20 years, Annie Sloan has become perhaps the world's most respected expert in decorative paint, colours, and techniques. Alongside her unique and versatile decorative paint, Chalk Paint, Annie has inspired generations with her accessible, lively, and creative approach to getting great results.

      Colour Insight

      Oct 7, 2021

      My mantra for decorating a room is simple: everything gets painted the same colour – the floorboards, skirting, ceiling, windows and doors. It makes the space look more sophisticated as there’s nothing to distract the eye. You can then add pieces to

      Trends

      Sep 1, 2022

      Throughout my career, I’ve been pretty against trends as a concept. But that’s because when I first started out I had less of an understanding of the context of how people live. I’d cover trends in such a base way, spotting an influx of, say, purple
