Come and learn the basics of furniture painting with Betty Jacks!
Suitable for beginners to learn the basics of furniture painting from preparation to finish. Bring your own small item of furniture and take it home beautifully finished!
You can bring any small item of furniture that can be painted in the timeframe, we advise bringing an item that is easily carried such as a small chair or side table. Please do not bring anything that has been waxed or previously painted.
The workshop runs from 10 am until 3 pm and costs £75 per person for the session, which includes basic materials. Paint and preparation products used can be purchased from us on the day with a 10% discount. Any unused product you purchase is yours to take away.
The paint we will use in this workshop is Cornish Milk Mineral Paint. You will learn how to apply the paint, the preparation necessary and lots of helpful tips along the way!
Please come along in clothing and footwear that you don’t mind getting messy, bring an apron if you like.
We provide refreshments but please feel free to bring a light lunch if you wish.
The session will hopefully inspire you to practice and experiment so that you will go away and create beautiful pieces.
Our sessions are very informal and relaxed, and sessions are kept small so you always get the best of our attention or if you prefer a one to one just for you, we can do that too … please enquire for details.
