Chalk PaintTM Decorative
Paints Basics Workshop
In this workshop participants will
have hands-on experience with three painting techniques. We will go over basic distressing and
crackling techniques, as well as wax washing.
Participants will learn to properly and effectively apply Clear and Dark
Wax. Participants will also paint their
own complete palette of Chalk PaintTM Decorative Paints; ideal
for determining which colors will work best in your home. Throughout the four-hour workshop, we will
regale you with enormous amounts of information about Annie Sloan, her creative
process and, of course, Chalk PaintTM Decorative Paints. $125

This is for those of you who
just want to get started painting your first piece of furniture. Bring your own piece of furniture to our
workshop space and we will paint it together.
During this workshop, you will have unlimited guidance from your favorite
local retail partner, umm . . . that would be me. In addition to the “technical
expertise,” I will provide the paint and wax you need to tackle your
project. You are responsible for
bringing your furniture to the shop. The
fee will include up to two Chalk Paint™ colors, wax and other supplies needed (such as brushes
and sand paper). $175
(These classes are scheduled on an as needed basis. Please contact Paige for details.)
Lighten Up, Chalk Paint™ is easy!

toss in the trash. Bring your own lamp

into a show piece for you home. Three
techniques will be offered—you choose your favorite. All supplies needed are provided—except the
lamp. $45
