Chalk Paint™ 101 - Basic

 

Join us at our loft studio and learn how easy it is to work with Chalk Paint™ by Annie Sloan.  We will show you how it can be used in a number of different ways to transform tired or dated furniture into fresh, beautiful pieces. This workshop will give you the experience and confidence to complete your own Chalk Paint projects. We cover several application techniques and you will create sample boards of each one to take home, along with an Annie Sloan paint colour chart, to help plan your future projects. You will also learn the proper technique of applying both clear & dark Soft Wax to create a beautiful old world, protective finish.

You will learn:

 

  • Annie’s signature finish: a two-colour distressed finish

  • a smooth, contemporary finish

  • a rustic, textured finish

  • a colour wash

  • a simple crackle finish

  • proper techniques for applying both clear & dark wax

 

All supplies are included.  Just show up in your painting clothes!
