Read THIS little post about what sets The Purple Painted Lady apart from the rest. In fact- there are many reasons we think buying through us is the best. $34.95 per quart, low/flat rate shipping and it always ships same day! Visit our website to order if interested. Or…some would refer to this as the color of oatmeal. This is more like a very light khaki, or …. THIS IS A SOFT BUTTERY cream… definitely has a yellow hue to it!!! In my opinion- this has more yellow than a traditional cream.Īnd since we are doing neutrals- let’s talk about Old Ochre. Think French Vanilla Ice Cream! Seriously- open a container of French Vanilla Ice Cream- and this is what I see. It is the number one selling color in our shops, on-line and any furniture we paint in Old White sells immediately! Of all the other paint colors we sell collectively at The Purple Painted Lady- we sell that same amount (if not more) in just Old White. Annie says it is the color of chalk and gesso, a soft white without pink or yellow in it. Some customers would refer to Old White as cream- as a matter of fact. Instead of using a polyurethane or lacquer to seal the paint, she lightly sanded her floors and then waxed them with floor wax, which will allow the floors to age naturally and become distressed. It is the color of French Vanilla ice cream melted! It is a soft white, but can have a very slight yellow hue if placed near other items that are yellow. Jeri painted the floors in her coastal boutique, Shabby Coast Cottage, using Annie Sloan Chalk Paint in Paris Grey for the beautiful lattice design. Old White reminds me of the color of bisque pottery before being painted. I think that is because it plays so well with all colors and it is not a bright, stark white. Seriously- of ALL the colors we sell- the total of Old White is almost the same as all the other Chalk Paint® colors added together. This is the number one color that we sell. I receive a lot of questions about the differences between the colors of Pure White, Old White and Cream Chalk Paint® decorative paint by Annie Sloan. Some of the information is my opinion, and some is based on how Annie Sloan herself describes the color. So, with that said- I would like to write a description of the colors below. But- truly- they are still not good enough. Compared to basic cameras purchased just 5 years ago- smartphones take higher resolution and better photos. I admit- I have yet to invest in an expensive camera. So, please read this post to learn more about Annie’s “whites” and then- call us if you are a customer of ours- and need more help with your purchase. the quality of the camera and lighting of who took the photo! With that said- if you need to order paint on-line, it can be even a bit more intimidating since colors may look differently on your monitor.

Most will strongly recommend that you purchase your colors with confidence- since returns are typically not an option.
