Chalk Paint®, Decorative Paint by Annie Sloan Creative Techniques Workshop £75
Times vary -
This workshop is designed as a follow on from the Essentials Workshop and runs the following day. People can therefore either attend both workshops in one weekend or do Workshop 1 one weekend and Workshop 2 another, the choice is yours.
For this workshop you will need to have some experience with Chalk Paint® and it is highly recommended that you attend Techniques 1 before attending this workshop. It is aimed at people who wish to learn some more advanced techniques. Remember when you were at school and you got to stick things and make a mess and it was ok because it was all in the name of creativity and expressing yourself? Well this day is a lot like that! You will cover:
Gilding using metallic leaf
Stenciling
Crackled effect using Craqueleur
Image Transfer
These skills are what will make you stand out from the crowd. Other people will look at your furniture and marvel and think to themselves “how did they do that?”.
As with Techniques 1, everything you need is supplied and you will be able to take your work home at the end of day. And of course there will be unlimited tea, coffee, cake & biscuits!
Why attend a course?
We see so many people who have not attended a class coming in or contacting us to ask why this has happened or why does it look like this or that or why hasn’t it turned out the way they hoped. We also see so many people out there on forums and Facebook groups giving conflicting advice on how to use Annie Sloan products, it’s a minefield. Some of the advice is good but some of it, though well-

Including a FREE 1 Litre tin of Annie Sloan paint in your chosen colour
This workshop is aimed at complete beginners or those who have perhaps dipped their toe (figuratively speaking) into Chalk Paint® and its endless possibilities but need some guidance as to how to get the best results or would like to develop their understanding of how it works and develop some more advanced painting techniques. This workshop is a relaxed, informal and fun few hours where like minded people can sit around, chat with each other, eat cake and get to ‘play’ with paint. You have to admit that sounds fun! You will cover three main techniques:
One-
Two-
Cracked paint
These are the most common techniques used to create a whole variety of looks and finishes and will take you onto the next level from just painting one flat colour. You will also learn about the woman behind the paint and other tips and tricks and get an opportunity to ask any questions you may have or troubleshoot any problems you’ve come up against.
Everything you need is supplied and you paint on boards, which you can then take home as a reference for when you go on to tackle your own projects. Tea, coffee and cake and biscuits are included. This workshop is designed as an introduction and leads on perfectly to Creative Techniques, which we will be offering slightly later in the year. Also included is a FREE 1 litre tin of paint in your chosen colour and discounted kits available to purchase on the day.
