We love the product of the month for April, tough coat! 

Our premium, non yellowing tough coat provides extra durability against general wear and tear, water damage and food stains. Perfect for those high traffic surfaces such as table tops, seating, doors and floors. Apply with a roller or brush onto recently painted or clean, non oily/greasy surfaces.

If applying to a recently painted surface, allow the surface to dry 24-36 hours before applying. For maximum durability, apply two coats waiting 2-4 hours between coats. In humid areas, longer drying times may be required. 500 mL covers approximately 75 sqft. Easy clean up with soap and warm water.  Dries to a matte finish.

 

 

If you haven’t used Miss Mustard Seed’s Furniture Wax, you are missing out on a lovely finish. Our beeswax based wax is super smooth and very malleable. Check out that consistency…

It is an amazing product to work with — lots of work time before it dries and no detectable odor make it a pleasure to use to finish all types of porous paints. Yep, that’s right, not just for milkpaint! It can be used on Chalk and Clay paints as well as flat latex. Stop in soon to see!

oh boy oh boy oh boy

This month’s product of the month is one of my favorites of the whole line, all natural hemp oil. When I talk about hemp oil during our classes at the store, the attendees usually purchase some hemp oil because I gush and gush about its many uses and wonderful properties.

1. We use it on all of our wood pieces that will not be painted before we bring them in the store. It is a great way to clean, nourish and rejuvenate wood pieces.
2. Wet sanding…if you haven’t done this, you must try. In a nutshell: paint, dry, squirt on the hemp oil, break out the 220 sandpaper and enjoy the smoothest finish you’ve ever felt.
3. Resist: Apply a little hemp oil between two color of milk paint and create your own chippy goodness.
4. Cast iron and metal: Season and clean your cast iron and metal pieces because ta-da, Hemp Oil is 100% food safe. 
5. Wood kitchen islands and tables, cutting boards and anything else you eat off of. So easy and good for the wood!

You know all about our aprons if you’ve attended one of our Miss Mustard Seed’s Milk Paint workshops. For those who haven’t been to class (yet), our aprons are a lovely gray and have the MMSMP logo on the front. 

They are available for purchase on our website.

Our Miss Mustard Seed’s Milk Paint Beeswax can be used in several different ways. During our class at the store, we often talk about how versatile it is. One of the techniques taught during the class is the beeswax resist. Each member chooses their own color combinations and the results are varied depending on how much beeswax was applied.

Our Beeswax can also be used as a finish for milk paint or wood. I recommend applying it with a cloth because a little bit goes a very long way!

Would you like to relax while you wax your piece of furniture? Look no further than our product of the month for May, MMSMP Lavendar Wax.

It is the same formula you know and love, but it is lavender scented. Smells divine!!

We love the product of the month for April, tough coat! 

Tough coat can be used as matte sealer on milk paint or as a clear primer to block any bleed through before painting with Miss Mustard Seed’s Milk Paint or any porous paint. Here we are using tough coat on the top of a mahogany desk that had been sanded. Since we wanted to use a lighter color, tough coat will help block the potential bleed through!
