Chris aka monkey on Sep 28, 2014@Linda D annies paint is sold thru dealers google her and it will tell you ones close to you ebay etsy would also have sellers...... as far as a difference i never had money to pay for her paint too pricey in my opinion so i looked up homemade chalk paint and made my own with cheap plaster of paris and paint there are a lot of recipes here on hometalk i painted dressers and a desk with it over a year ago and they have held up beautifully xxHelpful Reply

From My Front Porch To Yours on Sep 29, 2014I have been an avid chalk paint paint user since 2010. I have tried many chalk styled paints since then to include trying to make my own. For me the make your own version does not compare. You are still dealing with a latex paint which will not adhere to everything causing you to have to use primer. I have my favorite chalk styled paints and to be honest for you to find which one you like the best I suggest you purchase the sample pots so you can see for your self. What one person finds easy to work with another may find hard.Helpful Reply
