Making a “Teal” with Chalk Paint® by Annie Sloan

Interested in making a teal using Chalk Paint® by Annie Sloan?  If you are by one of our shops – you can always stop in and experiment mixing using our paint bar.  Otherwise- another option is using our virtual color mixing tool that is on-line HERE.  This software tool allows you to select up to three colors and specify different ratios to see a hypothetical mixture of what the mix outcome would like.  
 
Otherwise, here are some “teal” color recipe ideas to get you started.  Remember, Chalk Paint® is an artisan paint and Annie created it for you to use, to experiment with and to enjoy!
 
* Old Ochre and Florence make a nice Tiffany Blue- some of our customers call that teal.
 
* 3 parts Aubusson Blue and 1 part Antibes Green.  (but we encourage you to play with various amounts because the created colors are beautiful)
 
* Equal parts Aubusson Blue and Florence
 

* Napoleonic Blue and Florence1 part each, that makes a nice dark teal.  Then, if you want the best turquoise…..add 1/2 the mixed amount of quart of Pure White.

*  For a brighter teal, try only 10 or 20% Napoleonic Blue added to Florence.
 
Once you create your customer color  – you can then lighten it using Pure White.
