 | How To Paint Furniture
You will learn how to achieve the look of old French and Swedish painted furniture. The techniques learnt are distressed paint using one and two colours, crackled paint, crackled varnish, a wonderful damask style of stencilling, decoupage and decorative gilding.
You will paint two boards with all the techniques which you will be able to take away with you to remind you of the techniques you learnt. You will also be given Annie Sloan's Painted Furniture Source Book showing old pieces of painted furniture from France and the rest of Europe to help continue to inspire you. You will get 10% off everything in the shop that day also.
We run the courses mainly from our shop in Oxford.
They start at 10am and go on until approx 4pm with a 45 minute break about 12.30 for lunch. There are lots of places nearby for lunch either for a sit down meal or to get sandwiches to bring back to the studio.
The online bookable dates BELOW are for courses held in our shop in Oxford.
No more than 7 people are taught at a time to ensure time can be spent with each individual.
Other stockists also run courses on painted furniture and each stockist has been trained by Annie Sloan. Details are below. Contact the individual shop to make a booking.
