On September 9th, we had our first Chalk Paint ™ workshop with 4 wonderful ladies.  You may be able to tell that the store area has changed a little.  We are working on our new home decor section where we will be able to do classes as well as showcase our home decor items.  Notice  the gold curtain in the back? Well thats all part of the ‘hide the boxes’ and items look..lol..anyway..back to the classes.  The ladies spent 4 hours in an intimate setting learning how to use Chalk Paint™ and the waxes.  FYI- this was my first class so I was totally nervous and wanted to make sure the class was informative and full of materials so that students could complete their home projects.  From the comments I think we did good.  Here is a shot of the day…

Here are some of the comments we got after the class:  

Bahia, ..Thank you so much for offering the Annie Sloan’s 101 class. The day and company could not have been better! After attending your class, I now have the confidence to apply the various techniques learned. Your zest for teaching and love of the product is infectious! I can’t wait to dig in! Looking forward to the next class…Madeline C. Diaz   posted on Facebook.

I along with three other fabulous women just had the most awesome class today at “On the Purple Couch” learning how to paint with the Annie Sloan chalk paint. It was just great! I got even more out of the class once I came home. I wish I had taken a small piece from my house to paint at the store after I learned some of the techniques. I would like to have had Bahia in front of me to ask questions and guide me. I am really excited and painting/ home decorating doesn’t usually get me excited. Need more classes!
