Chalk Paint® Sample Pots- We will see you in September!

Have you noticed that sample pots of Chalk Paint® decorative paint by Annie Sloan are difficult to find in stock?

Like…anywhere in the US?

That is because the demand for Chalk Paint® has been so incredible- that the manufacturer has had to make some modifications as so to accommodate all of the demand. Because of this- sample pot availability has been pushed out till September. Orders placed including sample pots starting in August will be shipped as a partial- and then the balance (sample pots) will ship as soon as inventory is received- which again- is forecasted for late September.

This is a situation that impacts all stockist in North America and we are working very hard to have these back in stock for you!

We apologize for the inconvenience.

A possible work around you may want to consider is if you have a friend who wants a similar color. Then you can go in on one quart (32 ounces) of Chalk Paint® together versus waiting for a sample pot (4 ounces.) That way- for just about the cost of $18 each– (which is not that much more than the cost of ONE sample pot price) – you are getting the amount of 4 sample pots each. (hope that makes sense to you)

Otherwise- when it comes to Sample Pots- we will see you in September. (now doesn’t that make you think of THIS song?)

I am getting so excited with all that we will have available for you on September 21st! The show will go from 10am till 5pm.

This special one day event is held at our home which is on 17 acres. This year we have added a Farmer’s Market section – so besides the hand picked incredible artists- we will also have wineries, bakers, cheese makers and farmers too!>br>

Our goal- is to make the day unlike anything you will experience in Upstate NY!

We invite you to bring some lawn chairs and relax on the front lawn and listen to the tunes of our classic rock band that plays from start to finish. I guarantee you 100% – you will have a great time!

There is a $1 entrance fee from guests and that money will be contributed to the featured charity of our choice for this year’s sale- which is Cracker Box Palace ~ a registered non-profit farm haven in Alton, NY. It is a unique place in Wayne County where farm animals of every kind come to recover from illness, neglect or abuse. Some of our residents come here due to family deaths, or because their owners can no longer give them the care they need. All animals are taught that they still have friends and all people are not bad.

Thanks and hope to see you there!
