Give yourself a Christmas present and a great way to
start 2009!
Here is an opportunity to create that special item or
piece of small furniture with Ginger Edwards, a
national teacher and author. Ginger will help you
with designing on larger pieces that you may bring.
She uses touches of faux finish to enhance the design rather than
trying to paint roses ‘everywhere’! She will demonstrate
techniques and how to use them in class. Unfinished furniture,
antique shop finds, or something lurking at home? A small chest
or rocking chair? What unique pieces will be created with Ginger
in January? Ginger is looking forward to painting with you. Below
are examples of Ginger’s work.
Preparation can begin as you have
time. Bring an 8x10 inch practice
poster board to the seminar
basecoated in FolkArt Grey Green or
DecoAmericana Silver Sage Green or a
similar color. Class projects MUST be
painted in acrylic paint. Do not bring
anything
painted
white.
Register at meetings or by mail for
either Day 1 or Day 1 & 2. Most
instruction will be provided on Day 1.
Make checks payable to DASF. A
payment of 50% is required to hold your
space. If registering by mail, please
