Decorative Paint Workshops
Due to the increased interest in "DIY" TV programmes, more and
more people are becoming aware of the basics. So while any of the old courses
can be reintroduced at any time for group participation, we are now offering
two ' fun courses' , encompassing more ground in a day but without going into
the usual depth.
The Fun Basic
The Fun Basic will introduce quick and easy ways to revamp a room, using wallwashing
or broken colour work. We will use quick-mix plaster to give you a country
kitchen look, with stencilling and colour stamping.
The Finishing
Touches
The Finishing Touches will give you the confidence to 'go for it', introducing
many methods of gilding, crackle varnishing, antiquing, distressing and many
more effects, in other words taking the design just that little bit further.
Courses can be organised to suit. Any of the following finishes can be taught:
staining to match, hand painting, decoupage, stencilling, rag rolling, dragging,
marbling effect, crackle glazing, limed, aged or distressed finishing, plaster-moulding
and gilding.
Why not get a group
of 6-8 people together and organise a fun day out. The courses run from 9:30am,
ending at approximately 3pm. There are breaks for morning coffee and lunch
which is provided within the £60 charge for the day. (for special dietary
requirements, please notify in advance)
