31 Days of ASCP, Day 20... Smitten with French Linen


Have you gotten a chance to use the new color French Linen?

It should be a staple in your ASCP pallet!  We are loving the balance between grey and khaki.  We've enjoyed using it alone and pairing it with Graphite.....the possibilities are endless.  Loving Annie's idea to pair this with Emperor's Silk!  Thinking this combo might show up in our Workshop this Sunday!


Here we used just one thin coat of French Linen on an oak chair.  It gave the chair a great color, yet the richness of the grain of the oak still shows through!



This chair is now for sale at Total Bliss in Summerfield!  

Are you ready to paint something in French Linen??

  2. I created French Linen in my mind before it was ever announced and waited seemingly 'forever' till it was finally released recently. I finally just received it and I'm too busy to paint. :o
