Boxwood is a rich, dark grassy green. Depending on the finish used on the piece, it can look bright and bold or subtle – more like a muted olive. Boxwood takes its name from the preserved boxwood wreaths and topiaries Marian (aka Miss Mustard Seed) uses in her interiors.

Don’t forget that all Miss Mustard Seed milk paints are organic, biodegradable and contain zero VOC’s.
For those who think that milk paint should only be used to achieve a “primitive look,” this paint has been given a facelift with new colour options and fresh ideas on using it to fit your style. These are just a few of the ways milk paint can be used:
1. Use it on porous surfaces to create a finish that doesn’t chip or flake with time
2. Increase the ratio of water to paint to create a coloured stain or wash
3. Add the bonding agent when painting non-porous surfaces to increase adhesion
