I am pleased to announce the arrival of 12 new limited edition colors from American Paint Company. Introducing the…
American Home Collection
American Paint Company prides themselves in making the healthiest paint available for the DIY furniture painter while staying on trend with the home decor market. With the addition of the new chalk & clay colors from American Home, American Paint Company is retiring 15 older colors. They are also moving eight of the pint size Ellis Collection colors to the main line which means those 8 colors will be available in quarts & samples and the pint sizes will be phased out. The other four have been retired and are on sale now here.
