Ivory & Pitch

IMG_6114

I made the most fantastic discovery this weekend. An emporium of hand-painted furniture, chalk paints, brushes, glazes, adhesives and a whole wealth of information concerning the above.
Ivory & Pitch, purveyors of carefully selected homewares, cushions, throws, accessories and one off pieces of hand painted furniture is the brain child of interior designer Caroline Ivory. Opened in 2011, to bring her expertise to a wider audience, this shop is a joy for anyone who loves unfussy, yet elegant style.
I was in my element and can’t wait to try out the selection of Annie Sloan Chalk Paint™ that I purchased during my all too brief visit.
