On Saturday I attended a Workshop at
Paint Me White
learning to use Annie Sloan Chalk Paint
It was held at the new premises of Paint Me White at Mudgeeraba
Sandy also has a store at the Woolloongabba Antique Centre
Here we all are , a lovely group of ladies.
I brought in this lovely ornate frame
Look , no sanding , no primer required
Straight into painting , no paint smell , gotta love that !!
I choose ' Louis Blue ' to Paint the frame.
I have a special spot at home for this which I will reveal another day !!
It was hard not to get distracted surrounded by all the interesting pieces in the store.
The 3 hours went so fast . We stopped to have a delicious morning tea that had been made by Sandys daughter Paige. Wish I had taken a photo of the delightful stand holding the yummiest egg sandwiches & the best caramel slice I have ever had ! ( I may have to pop back soon just to get the recipie )
I came home with two colours to start off with
Paris Grey & Pure White ( of course )
Lots of great colours & different effects can be done with them.
Sandys Gold Coast store " Paint Me White " had its opening on Sunday
( I forgot to take a picture of the sign outside )
Which can be found at Mudgeeraba Village Shopping Centre , Swan Lane.

Wow, that sounds like sooo.. much fun. I love Sandy's work. Wish I lived in Queensland. Might just have to order some from Sandy anyway. Cant wait to see what you do! X
ReplyDeleteOh it does look like fun. I love the frame you chose. I have seen that lots of people are using the chalk paint. I will have to try it sometime.
