How to Stencil a Chair with Chalk Paint™ – Part 1

Annie demonstrates how to stencil on furniture using her decorative paint, Chalk Paint™. In this first of two videos, she shows you how to choose a colour palette that works and how to paint your first coat.

  1. Tip your chair upside down and rest it on a table to paint it. If your chair has an upholstered seat pad, you can either remove this or mask it off so the paint doesn’t go on the fabric. Here, Annie has used Duck Egg Blue.
  2. Use an Annie Sloan brush to apply your base colour all over the chair. Move the brush every which way to get lots of texture in your paintwork.
  3. Allow the paint to dry before stencilling.
