Bring Your Own Furniture Class - May 7

Let's transform old and boring to new and trendy! 

We want to share our love for renewing furniture by simply painting it with chalk mineral paint. Yes! It’s that easy and effortless with Dixie Belle Paint Company products. Come learn from us all the right steps - we are Elite retailers who even teach other Dixie Belle retailers. 

Learn the Basics .... Prep - 1 Color Paint - Distress - Protect all in 4+/- hours!

No sanding or cleaning your piece before class - just knock off the dust.

After our workshop, you will leave with your small piece of furniture/decor completely transformed by YOU plus the confidence and support to continue painting even after the class ends!

(Sorry, We do not re-upholster, make repairs, strip, or stain during this class.)

Cost: $95 – includes all materials including: 8 oz. of chalk mineral paint, 4 oz. of satin clear coat

RSVP - Select your Color & Pay in Advance online at least 3 days before the class. 

Space is limited to 4 participants. 

Class registration closes 3 days prior to any class so we may prepare your items and arrange our staff appropriately.

What do I bring?

You will bring in any small wood item: a couple of picture frames, a shelf, a chair/stool, maybe even a small side table – nothing bigger than 2 feet tall/wide (A good rule of thumb: if you can place it in the passenger seat of your car and carry it by yourself in your hands and without a cart; you can bring it!)  Also, think about transporting your new treasure home safely. Perhaps bring a blanket or towels for protection.

Can I bring snacks or beverages? Absolutely! 

What do I wear?

Consider wearing comfortable clothes and something you do not mind getting paint on –just in case. We do have aprons available. 

What does Rustic Journeys provide?

Consider us the concierge of chalk painting classes!

Our classes are purposefully limited in participant size to provide a guided hands-on experience from a certified instructor. We provide all the supplies and tools needed for you to be successful– from set up to paint, paint brushes, sand paper, sealer, and final clean up. Plus, you keep all your non-consumable supplies including what is left in your 8-oz. jar of Dixie Belle Paint. Think of it as a learner’s kit to continue painting! 

Anything else???

1. Photos please!

Please send us a photo of your piece. This way we can anticipate if your item happens to need a little prep work with a primer before you begin. Does it have a super glossy finish? Is a mahogany or wood that is prone to bleed through if you are going to paint it white. 

Send that photo to RusticJourneys@gmail.com 

2. Color please!

Let's set aside your jar of paint --- as we tend to sell out of colors ironically the day or two before your scheduled workshop.  There are 64 fantastic colors to choose from, so once you know your color contact us either here, through our Facebook event post, or over the phone, so we can set it aside for you.

We look forward to a lot of laughter and fun!

FAQs

Are there ID requirements or an age limit to enter the event?

For this class we suggest the minimum age to be at least 13 years old accompanied with a parent.

What can/can't I bring to the event?

Please do not bring large/heavy items as we cannot accommodate the loading/unloading necessary for multiple people during the busy day. Plus, we only have a few hours together and it would take much longer for larger items like dressers, chest of drawers, etc. to paint/dry/seal. 

Where can I contact the organizer with any questions?
