How to Paint Furniture to Professional Standards

A full day of learning about chalk paint, colour and technique and how to paint your furniture to professional standards.

We teach you the magic of chalk paint: how it can be finished with a range of techniques from gilding and crackle-glazing, decoupage and stencilling. We show you how to layer colours for a Scandinavian effect, and how to try different ways of painting to suit your own style: flat-painting for a contemporary finish, or distressing for a classical French look. With lots more besides, this exceptional course gives you the tools and confidence to start your own work, or greatly improve the skills you already have.

The course runs from 10am to 4pm and includes all materials, a sumptuous farmhouse lunch and refreshments.

“This is a fabulous course in a wonderful setting designed to inspire. Catered for all abilities and the tools and equipment were readily available, and it was lovely to be able to experiment extensively. Vanessa was articulate and very patient and so talented. We were all delighted with the results of our labour. A lovely friendly group and a fabulous lunch – homemade – wonderful. Delighted at the number of different effects we were taught – cleverly managed on two pieces of wood. Very well-thoughout course, very well organised – the best course I have ever been on. I am totally inspired. Ongoing support which is invaluable. A marvellous opportunity to try paints/waxes before you buy. Many, many thanks”.
