Elephants Breath for staircase

Suitable shade for our staircase, just what I was looking for to balance a busy wallpaper. I’m surprised at just how different it looks to the same paint on our kitchen cupboards, both look great, but definitely a reminder to try it in location.

Coordinating gloss

Good gloss finish bear in mind that this paint needs time to harden off between coats and at the end.

Delivered quickly. Gorgeous paint. Great quality. Rather expensive.

Paint quality

Paint went on well and only took two coats to achieve look I was looking for.

Colour Drenching

First time I’ve colour drenched a room and I’m very happy with the result. Such a calming colour.

Perfect colour, Great quality.

Loved the colour, its a perfect warm but very neutral option. Would go with just about anything I'd think. We sprayed ours and the coverage was so good, only used just over half a tin to cover our full sitting room so although pricey, it goes a long way.

Lovely soft colour

This is a lovely soft colour, although a little lighter than anticipated. Our hallway looks calm and peaceful now.

Beautiful paint but overpriced

Beautiful paint but overpriced. They only sell tester pots in estate emulsion finish.
