Colour Mixing Chalk Effects Paint

Mixing colours with Mezzie + Frank Chalk Effects Paint opens a world of creative possibilities for furniture upcycling and home décor.

Mixing colours allows you to create custom shades tailored to your project's needs. Our Chalk Effects range includes a variety of hues inspired by Australian landscapes and culture. By blending these colours, you can achieve unique tones that reflect your personal style.

Tips for Successful Colour Mixing

1. Start Small: Begin by mixing small amounts to test the resulting colour before committing to a larger batch.
2. Use a Mixing Stick: Ensure thorough blending by using a paint stirrer or mixing stick, achieving a consistent hue throughout.
3. Record Ratios: Keep track of the proportions used in your mixes to replicate the colour in the future.
4. Test Before Application: Apply a sample of the mixed colour on a test surface to observe how it looks when dry, as colours can change slightly upon drying.

Exploring Creative Combinations

Mezzie + Frank's colour palette encourages experimentation. For instance, blending 'Baggy Green' with 'Whitehaven' can result in a soft sage green, ideal for a calming bedroom ambiance. Mixing 'Midnight Oil' with 'King Island' can produce a serene, misty blue, reminiscent of coastal mornings. 

By exploring different colour combinations and techniques, you can transform tired pieces into bespoke treasures that reflect your unique aesthetic.
