On Monday, July 30, we had our first Annie Sloan Chalk Paint Work Shop.  This was a half day class where we taught five finishes to the six attendees, who are all very creative and fun to work with.  What made it a really special class was that Lori Rombold (one of our mentors at Robyn Story Designs) stopped in and helped us with the work shop.  Our thanks also go out to Claudia Iris for allowing us to use her studio at Creative Journies (see pix below) to conduct the work shop.

The six ladies who attended learned how to apply the following Annie Sloan Chalk Paint finishes:  Crackle, 2/3 color Blend, 2 Color Distressed and Wash.  Our fantastic students did so well that we had time for a fifth finish, so we taught them to apply the “Smooth” finish.

A great time was had by all, and our next class is scheduled for September 15.  You can reach us at our shop by phone (863-510-5980) or by email: blackswan.bazaar@yahoo.com) to reserve a spot.  We only have room for six, so let us know as soon as possible.
