Blackbird’s Egg is an elegant light blue paint with grey overtones. A contemporary cool and calm colour which would look as amazing in a Georgian drawing room as it would in a totally modern kitchen. Pair with Victory White for best effect.

We Recommend
Don't forget to purchase tools for your decorating project. We recommend the award winning Eco Union decorating products for optimum utility for all your decorating needs, and also the fantastic Two Fussy Blokes range for the best rollers in the world (in our humble opinion).
Always read the information on the tin first before use. Check colour and finish are correct before starting with this application. To avoid spilling store securely in an upright position.
Stir all paints before use.
Surfaces must be clean, dry and sound. If not they should be sanded and appropriately prepared. Bare plaster and other porous surfaces should be sealed by using a paint diluted using 25% additional water.
Being a water-based product it is best to protect the opened wet paint from airborne and surface bacteria . To avoid spoilage it is best to decant the paint into a paint tray or paint kettle and not to place the brush or roller directly into the paint tin, unless you intend to use it all at one time. Also avoid putting unused paint back into the paint tin as this will introduce unwanted bacteria into the paint and potentially cause spoilage of the product.
Victory Colours paint has great opacity so often only one coat will suffice. Occasionally a second coat will be required to produce a flawless finish.
The paint will be touch dry in 2 hours but we recommend waiting 4 hours to re-coat, ensuring that the surface is completely dry, under normal environmental conditions.
We recommend a premium quality, medium pile roller and Eco Union paint brushes with a high bristle content for best results.
Clean brushes and rollers with warm soapy water after use.

Lovely paint to use
From choosing a colour to having the paint delivered was a 1st class service. The Down to Earth Paints are a quality paint. As well as being an eco paint. The paint consists of a creamy mixture which is very smooth and really easy to apply compared to a lot of Trade paints. It was particularly easy to cut in with. The coverage is outstanding with a flat even finish. I look forwards to using it again in the future.

Very impressed - Lovely thick paint - pigment is amazing
Never used your brand before but saw a recommendation on an interiors group. Completely odour free. It’s so thick and goes on so easily. Beautiful colour that’s a lovely blue grey. Would highly recommend and will be my ‘go to’ brand now from now on. Very impressed.

Boy's Room
I used Blackbird's Egg & Aragonite for my son's bedroom and it looks lovely. The paint was so easy to use and there was very little splattering. The finish was a lovely matt too. I have had to wash the paintwork on numerous occasions already and the paint has proved to be very durable and has not marked at all. The blue and the grey complement each other perfectly and have given his tatty bedroom a sophisticated uplift, perfect for a nine year old going on nineteen! The best bit was that there was hardly any smell and he could sleep in the room over night even though it took me a couple of days to finish.
