The Karen Walker Paints range of colours was an instant hit when it was first launched and has continued to be a popular go-to colour range with each updated release.

And now to bring the Karen Walker experience full circle, Resene has Karen Walker Chalk Colour Paints available so designers can get their favourite Karen Walker Paints colour in chalk finishes.

The Karen Walker Chalk Colour range is based on chalk style paints, which bring an artisanal vibe to a project. It can be tinted to all current Karen Walker colours and a range of standard Resene colours off white, light and ultra-deep tone to impart a velvety matte finish on small feature areas.

In addition to the new chalk finish, this range includes two waxes to give furniture extra depth, interest and lustre. For an instantly aged look — think French Provincial-inspired — use a cloth to buff the Karen Walker Vintage Wax all over the furniture, concentrating on the grooves. Or, simply use Karen Walker Soft Wax to keep the soft look of the Karen Walker Chalk Colour paint finish, with an extra protective layer.
