1. Pick a colour Explore our inspiration page and browse by colour, architectural style or room. For tailored advice, book a virtual or in-person session with one of our expert colour consultants. 2. Choose a Sample Type Choose between our 60ml pot of matt emulsion for the full natural paint experience, or A5 colour swatches painted with our emulsion for infinitely movable samples. 3. Using Sample Pots Give your pot a quick stir and paint two coats – let the first coat dry then reapply – straight onto your walls or multiple sheets of paper. Position the sheets in various places in your room to get the best sense of how your chosen colours will look in different light throughout the day and evening. 4. Using A5 Colour Swatches A5 swatches are perfect for moving from wall to wall and room to room, without having to get out a brush. They aren’t sticky, so they’re infinitely movable. Simply use paper tape to affix to your walls or prop against fabrics and furnishings to help curate your perfect palette. Move the swatches around the room to get an idea of how your chosen colours will look under natural and artificial lights at different times of the day. 5. After You’ve Used Your Samples The packaging and contents of our sample pots are either reusable, recyclable or compostable. Why not share leftover sample paint with family or friends. For unwanted leftover paint, either let dry in the pot or pour out onto a piece of cardboard. Our emulsion can be composted when dry or disposed of in household waste. Once clean and dry either reuse the handy glass jar and lid, or recycle via your kerbside household recycling. We’re all for reusing, so once you’ve chosen your colour scheme and finished with your swatches, share them with someone you think will love our colours and paint. Our swatches are made from plant-based emulsion and FSC certified paper and can be recycled in your household recycling. 6. Still undecided?
