This workshop will be taught by myself, Charlotte, the owner of Not Too Shabby by Charlotte.
I use these products and techniques every day to create bespoke furniture commissions and am passionate about sharing my love of paint and creativity with new people! 
During this workshop you'll learn how to use Milk Paint by Fusion to create so many different effects!
We'll... 
  • Discuss different types of prep for different techniques 
  • We'll discuss the huge variety of paint techniques you can achieve with Milk Paint... this includes layering, crackle, resists, chippy, distressing and more!
  • I'll show you how easy it is to mix Milk Paint 
  • Then you'll paint your very own wooden crate in the colours and technique of your choice
  • We'll look at different finishing and sealing options
  • You'll leave with a hand out detailing everything discussed so that you can relax and enjoy the workshop without worrying about taking notes 
  • We'll then look at how you can apply your newly learnt skills to your furniture and projects at home
All materials will be provided and you'll leave with a painted crate to use and display in your home
Classes are kept small, at a maximum of 8 people, so that I can give you my full attention and we can have a fun and friendly group.
You'll leave with all the confidence, skills and knowledge you need to continue creating at home! We'll discuss how you can apply your newly learnt skills to furniture and other projects.
Plus there'll be 10% off Fusion Mineral Paint, Milk Paint by Fusion, PolyOnlay and ClingOn Brush purchases on the day
Aprons will be provided, however I suggest that you don't wear your best clothes as this is a hands on workshop so we'll be painting and if you're anything like me you'll get it on you! 
The workshop will take place on the beautifully renovated balcony of my workshop, The Old Baptist Church, 170 Norman Street, Ilkeston, DE7 8NR.
Access to the balcony is via 14 stairs.
There is plenty of on street parking.
The workshop will be followed by a delicious lunch prepared by my favourite local delicatessen.  Please let me know if you have any allergies or dietary requirements. 
The workshop is 10am til 3pm. Please arrive at 9.30 to get settled in, help yourself to a cuppa and meet your new friends 
I can't wait to see you there! xxx
