Chalk paint blue: the best colours for your ideas

Effect of blue

Colour shades in blue are a broad field. The blue colour scheme ranges from light sky blue to the dark depth of night blue. And of course, different effects can be created with the various nuances of the blue colour scheme. For example, a light blue that reflects the colour of the sky on a summer's day can lend a room an airy and cheerful atmosphere. A warm blue with green pigments such as Cloudy Blue from our CosyColours collection looks fresh but dignified. Painting the surface of a piece of furniture with a dark, intense colour such as Stormy Sky Blue can in turn create a very elegant effect

In any case, blue tones are known to have a calming and relaxing effect. The elegant, matt finish of chalk paint blue enhances this effect even further

You have many design options, especially with chalk paint in blue. The chalk paint creates a soft, matt shimmer on all surfaces that looks very elegant. In the CosyColours chalk collection and also in the LittlePomp chalk paints, you will find a selection of beautiful shades of blue in chalk paint quality

A shade of blue can actually be used in all rooms. Paint a piece of furniture in the living room a beautiful blue colour. Use chalk paint in blue in the bedroom or use it in the baby or children's room by painting wooden or metal children's toys blue

How do I combine blue chalk paint with other colours?

If you want to combine furniture in a matching blue with your wall paints, always pay attention to the composition of the pigments in your colour shade. If the pigments match, the colours will also go together. Among the blue chalk paints in the LittlePomp collection you will find both wall paints and chalk varnishes!

Blue and grey are a classic combination. If you love intense colours, you can also combine blue with a completely different colour such as pink. This will definitely create an eye-catching ambience!

To be on the safe side, be sure to order the CosyColours colour card and the LittlePomp colour cards. There you can see all the original shades of blue and can also examine them in any light. Remember that chalk paints are very lively and can look very different depending on the lighting

Furniture in blue: the perfect addition to your room

Choosing the perfect shade of blue is not easy. The lightest shade of blue in our CosyColours chalk paint range is the soft Dawn Blue. This light, friendly shade of blue is a good example of how blue colour shades don't have to look cold. Twilight Blue is slightly more intense. This blue is the perfect colour shade for a maritime design in your home. Twilight Blue goes particularly well with beige sand tones such as Soft Beige or Smooth Beige from the CosyColours collection

The LittlePomp chalk paints collection also includes 2 attractive shades of blue that will also appeal to adults: the light, delicate Blue & Calm with its green colour components and the more intense Blue & Noble, a calm aqua tone with rich depth. The LittlePomp chalk paints are not only available as paint colours, but also as wall paints. This makes for an interesting tone-on-tone combination, as you can paint walls and furniture in the same blue chalk paint

The advantages of blue chalk paints

Our chalk paints consist mainly of water, pigments and chalk. It is VOC-free and has a low odour when applied. This makes them ideal colours for indoors. The chalk varnishes from LittlePomp and CosyColours are also certified as toy-safe

With chalk paints, you can achieve a completely matt, velvety surface with a very special look. All colour shades look particularly intense with chalk paint, as the small chalk particles contained in the paint reflect the light in a very special way

You can use blue chalk paint on almost any surface in your home. You can paint wood, metal, stone, ceramic and plastic with chalk paint. You can paint almost anything with blue chalk paint, including picture frames, wooden furniture made from all types of wood, metal furniture and even glass. Prepare smooth surfaces in advance with our MissPompadour To Bond & Block primer so that the paint can adhere well

Simple application and care

Chalk paint in blue hardly smells, which is particularly important when working indoors. Its opacity is high, so that two coats are normally sufficient to achieve the desired opacity and appearance. Surfaces finished with chalk paint are easy to maintain. They can be cleaned with a damp cloth. If surfaces are subject to heavy use, such as in kitchens, we recommend stabilising the chalk paint with MissPompadour To Seal. On other surfaces, you can enhance the magic of old times with a layer of wood wax. At MissPompadour you will find perfectly matched CosyColours furniture waxes in various colour shades.

How to apply chalk paint blue

It is important to thoroughly clean all surfaces, including wooden surfaces, that are to be painted. Sanding is not normally necessary. However, all dirt, dust and grease must be removed before painting. The best way to do this is to use MissPompadour To Clean

If you want to paint very smooth surfaces such as plastic, ceramic or glass, it makes sense to use a primer such as MissPompadour To Bond & Block. This is because the primer has the effect of giving the blue chalk paint better adhesion. The chalk paint is then applied in 2 coats to your furniture or painting project. Allow the colour to dry after each coat.
