Small tin, goes a long way..
Can’t believe how this liquorice chalk paint has transformed my Welsh dresser.. I’m really impressed how far such a small tin goes.. going to try some other colours 😊🤔

Perfect for up cycling
I truly cannot recommend this paint enough. I had my reservations when buying such a small pot but I only used over half a tin on this bedside table- 2 coats. Naturally I sanded first and put an undercoat on. See photos for what my bedside table looked like before! One thing I will say is make sure you do even coats as the brush work is very noticeable in the light. Dries very quickly and little odour. I can’t wait to use this on real wood and not melamine!

lovely
I buy this Paint for most of my furniture the picture of the drawers I've attached started life as awful white gloss so I use this paint and then wax it (bear in mind colour may differ slightly than my colour)hope it helps

Beautiful tone of dusty / pale creamy pink - but doesn’t cover as well as others in the range
This is my favourite make of chalk paint, and I paint furniture regularly but whenever I can I choose a colour from the Shabby Chic Furniture Paint range. Their Licuorice and Chalky White are both lovely. This colour I didn’t use before, from the first look I can’t agree with the previous reviewer noting it’s grey-pink. It does look strawberry yoghurt to me? It’s a creamy pink slight lilac undertone and very slight greyish - so more close to a dusty pink tone and won’t stand out as ‘baby pink’ at all - it’s not at all like that. I have a few Neptune items in their Oyster Pink linen and this colour resembles that closely - if this helps. I gave it four stars only though because of the coverage not being as good as other colours in the range. I paint quite thin coats, and painting the inside of a greenish mid-grey cabinet, I needed 3 coats to cover it fully. So I had to order a third pot and now paid more for 750ml than I would’ve for a 1L pot, simply because it doesn’t cover as well as what I’m used to when using this paint. It’s a shame because the colour is gorgeous, it will look lovely when I finish - a French linen cabinet in Licuorice black, with strawberry yoghurt shelves inside. It’s just as I planned it to look, hence still deserves 4 stars.

Pretty special stuff.
In love with this paint! Turned a tired set of drawers into something pretty special. Went on beautifully. A little sure does go a long way! I bought 250ml and its covered these drawers, a bigger six set of drawers and a wardrobe. Still have some left and that's with three coats! Instead of spending £500 on new furniture, this paint and a set of new knobs has cost me £20, and I prefer the end result! Upcycling is the way forward!

Worst chalk paint I've ever used
I bought this to makeover an old set of drawers, choosing this brand as neither of the ones I've used before had the colour I wanted and I was stupid enough to believe the positive reviews. I have previously worked with Johnson's and Rustoleum and found them both thick and creamy, providing even coverage in just one or two coats, this watery rubbish ran out after 5 coats and the finish is still patchy. I am going to have to strip the piece and start over again using better paint, I would not recommend this at all.

Love it
I was a bit dubious about buying this product after reading the reviews but got it anyways . After sitting under the stairs for some time I took the plunge and took to work on my dining table and 6 chairs( not the actual tabletop or seats as I've left this the original wood) . So far I've painted 2 and I love it !!after second coating them to my liking I've about half a tin left which will do another 2 chairs. I've just ordered one more can do to the remaining 2 chairs aswel as the dining table legs. Easy to apply with a paintbrush with little to no mess , quick drying time and gorgeously renovated furniture .

A little tin that does a lot
Turned a tired, 20 year old built in wardrobe in to something I can live with! Two and a half of these tiny little tins covered this massive area in 3 coats. Finished with a 'dead flat' varnish, it's exactly what I wanted.Be sure to water it down a bit. Soon as you do it goes miles further and coats so much more easily.
