It pairs especially well with dark wax effects, antique brass, warm wood, floral transfers, vintage decor, and romantic collected interiors.

Best For: Painted furniture, cabinets, buffets, dressers, nightstands, frames, accent decor, vintage-inspired furniture, statement pieces, and heirloom-style makeovers.
With this paint, there is usually no need to sand, prime, or seal before you begin. It has a beautiful flat finish that is worth exploring on its own. For an extra-smooth finish, use finishing pads to lightly buff your piece once the paint is dry. That smoother-than-butter finish is like the icing on top of an already delicious cake.
For high-use pieces like tabletops, cabinets, and frequently handled furniture, we recommend protecting your finish Dixie Belle Clear Coat or Dixie Belle Gator Hide.
Apothecary pairs beautifully with vintage floral furniture transfers, warm wood finishes, antique brass details, and Dixie Belle gilding waxes for an heirloom-inspired furniture makeover. You can browse more Dixie Belle Chalk Mineral Paint colors for your next furniture makeover.
