Essential Techniques 1 – introduces beginners and those with a bit of knowledge of chalk paint to the basic techniques, enabling you to tackle your own projects with confidence! The workshops are fun and relaxed sessions run by Gabrielle and her team, who have been trained by Annie Sloan. On the day we will cover:

You will be experimenting on sample boards first and then applying these techniques to a picture frame that we will supply, which you can take home with you. All materials are provided.
