Turning Over a New Leaf Workshop
Get creative and get involved with our new public art project for Harwich Festival 2019. We'll be celebrating the beauty of nature in the shape of magical vines which will creep up out of the river and up around the lampposts on Ha'penny Pier. Turn your hand to making a leaf or two to help create this natural wonder. Templates and instructions, on how to make these textile leaves, will be available from the Box Office in Harwich Library.

All of our workshops are great fun and are great to share with a friend or a family member!
Our workshops don’t end once you leave………
By the end of a workshop you’ll leave feeling confident to paint your own furniture with the knowledge that Ann and her team are always on hand to offer help and advice.
What’s involved and how does it work:
You’ll need to bring a small piece of furniture. We recommend no larger than 50cm x 50cm x 50 cm, don’t worry if you haven’t got anything suitable as we have pieces available from £5.00. Wear some old clothes and it may be useful to bring a notepad and pen. We’ll supply aprons.
Party bookings can also be taken but the format may change a bit.
Throughout the workshop you’ll be learning skills and techniques on a board and then using these on your own piece of furniture to give it a new look and lease of life ready to take home with you.
Watching paint dry…
Autentico chalk paint dries so quickly but while it is Ann will be showing you how to use different paint and finishing techniques and of coarse you’ll need time for those sticky cakes, biscuits, tea, coffee and a light lunch!
What we will cover:
• The origins of Autentico chalk paint
• How to prepare your piece of furniture
• Why you don’t need to sand your furniture
• Equipment you will need
• How to use Autentico chalk paints effectively
• How to create a two colour layering technique
• Various ways to distress your piece of furniture
• How to create special effects using Autentico’s various waxes
• Tips on how to work with different woods and there finishes
• And so much more…
You would have had a tremendously enjoyable experience on the way through, Ann is determined that the classes will be lots of fun as well as very fulfilling as you acquire all of the skills, learning and techniques that she has picked up over the years. The "Mersea Island Furniture Painting School" offers a wide variety of workshops, so please take a look at the other courses available.
Stuff we have to point out to you….
We have the right to cancel a workshop if we do not have enough participants. We will give you at least 3 days notice if we need to cancel. Should we need to cancel we will offer you an alternative date or a full refund.
