The creamy colour of the classic Irish buttermilk soda bread was the inspiration behind this shade. Warm and welcoming, just like the traditional bread, this colour is subtle and elegant. It would look lovely over any wood but especially a dark piece, distressed back to reveal the original wood. Very striking indeed! More about this shade here.
Milk paint is pure natural paint in powder to mix with the water for wood, plaster and other porous surfaces. Great paint for raw wood, or for renovation already treated wood. Natural ingrediences: casein (milk protein), lime, clay, chalk, natural pigmens.
I recommend 2 coats for block coverage and 1 coat or wash (wash - 2 parts of water and 1 part of powder) when the wood grains come through. You may put less water in light shades (about 90% of water) and as necessary carefully add water. More about mixing paint you can find in video.
