Furniture Painting

Painting Was Never This Easy!

​

Well actually, it has been ever since Annie Sloan invented her Chalk Paint™ in 1990. Her paint has become increasing popular over the years and is now a worldwide phenomenon and has given rise to many lookalike products.

The popularity of Chalk Paint™ comes firstly from the fact that there is normally no preparation required, secondly using it is an enjoyable and even a cathartic process and finally its versatility means that you can create many different looks with minimal effort.

​

It really is that easy to upcyle or re-purpose your furniture or breathe new life into your kitchen/bedroom units and at a fraction of the cost of replacement. And is a more environmentally friendly solution too.

​

Up until September 2018 Thomas & Lucia was one of the largest stockists of Annie Sloan products in the UK. However, we decided to specialist in renovating furniture and kitchens using Chalk Paint™ (we also use other brands of paint), so we closed our shop and opened a new workshop in Sway. We can now offer both hand and spray painting services for all sorts of furniture and for all sorts of tastes.

Painting Service

​

While it is easy to do-it-yourself we realise that not everybody has the time or wants to do the painting themselves so we also offer a painting service. This can be for a pretty much anything from say a bedside cupboard or chest of drawers to small dressers and sideboards to your entire dining suite. We can provide a professional sprayed contemporary finish or we can hand-paint and create lots of decorative effects. Items painted in Chalk Paint™ (other paint brands available) can be finished in Annie Sloan Clear Wax or a wax finish acrylic varnish, the latter is great for side tables or table tops as it is heat resistant.

​

If your kitchen or fixed bedroom units are looking tired or old fashioned then we can paint those too. It is amazing how a bit or paint, maybe with some new knobs can give you the 'new' look for a fraction of the price of replacement.
