Workshop 1
Every once in a while, our furniture (like us) could do with a makeover. Some pieces dear to you might be worn out beyond usefulness or appeal. We offer creative workshops on how to give new life to your old and boring furniture, we teach people young and old to paint using Autentico chalk paint in a variety of colours to give you the very best results. Our team will show you the "shabby chic" method & finishing with a wax to give that silky smooth finish. We have a variety of options to bringing your own small piece of furniture or painting an object we have supplied with the option to purchase if you wish (please let us know in advance). The perfect item would be a mirror, frame, box, small chair or small side table, please make sure it is no bigger than 35 x 20 x 15 inches approx. No book shelves, sideboards. desks, etc. as we are up stairs and are limited on painting time. Why not bring a friend or family to enjoy the experience, these extra places must be purchased. We promise this will be a very hands on and productive workshop with exciting results.
Please note... the only prep required before hand is cleaning the product so it is ready to paint & sugar soaping for grease and stains if necessary. You will not need to sand you item before hand. Please do not bring any item that has monetary or sentimental value as it is a practice workshop. All materials are provided on the day but extra supplies can be bought if required. We take all payment methods. Please wear suitable clothing and gloves. All places must be purchased as there is not enough room for watchers to sit in.
