Hello friends!
I’m heading to Haven in the morning, and today has been NUTS. Not only have we been working at the shop & getting kids registered for (home)school, we’ve been cutting up 200 coupons to take to Haven, packing, and gathering up paint and supplies for the Advanced Painting Workshop Marian and I are teaching.
thanks to the nester for the cheery visit…and the photo taken by my roomie
Let’s hope this year Haven treats me a little better. Last year, she was a little rough on me. I wound up having kidney surgery…and then in the hospital for 5 days from infection…and to think, I was assuming I had a little tummy virus.
But I did miss out on things (including one of the sessions I was supposed to be teaching), so I’m looking forward to going and spending time with friends and meeting new folks! I’m also teaching Advanced Furniture Painting with my buddy…Marian and I like to say we’re northern/southern twins. Like this morning, she texted at noon to say she had just gotten a shower and had not eaten all day.
Um, I had just started drying my hair and had my first bowl of oatmeal sitting in front of me.
The class should be a blast…be sure to pack your paint clothes, because we’ll be giving away prize packages to the person in the best/worst paint clothes in each class.
We’ll cover some fun finishes & answer any questions along the way in the 2 hour workshop….it’s full hands-on and we’re using Chalk Paint and Milk Paint to create some fun boards for y’all to take home.
I can’t wait to see some of you there–please let me know in the comments if you’re coming so we can say hi!!
See you in Hot-lanta!
How did you achieve the painted effect on the chair photo from you blog?

I wish I was going – maybe next year. Have fun!
Hey Shauna!
I remember you being so sick last year! AND the surgery….
I took your class on the first day, and really enjoyed it. You and Marian worked so well together. I plan to teach a class (night classes) in the fall, and will be using some of your tips and tricks for that class, thanks!
We never really had a chance to “meet” but so happy to have been able to catch your session!

Excellent color combination of light blue and sea green. The two colors really go together well. Your workshop sounds very cool, I hope it went well!
