Did you hear the big news?
Annie Sloan is here in the U.S. and is making her way around the country, teaching workshops on how to use her famous Annie Sloan chalk paint in her first ever North American tour! As a new user of Annie Sloan chalk paint, I can tell you I have really enjoyed using it on furniture. So far, I’ve painted curtain rods and my sister’s orange craft table (which I’ll be sharing the finale of later this week). The paint is great and I love working with it. Especially now that I’ve got the wax part down pat.
I have been hearing she is coming to Atlanta and it sounded like an exciting event. It’s an all day event next week (from 8:30 to 5:00 pm), on March 29th, down in Peachtree City, just south of Atlanta. Tickets include breakfast and lunch and all the workshop materials.
There is still time to sign up for the workshop if you are in Georgia or any surrounding areas. I know it’s going to be so much fun!
Are you ready for the excitement?!
I can hardly wait to tell you this one!
Annie Sloan Unfolded, the international distributor for Annie Sloan Chalk paint and Robyn Story Designs, one of the premier Annie Sloan stockists in Florida (who will be helping teach the workshop), is giving away a fabulous prize package that you are going to be over the moon excited about!
OK…..I am about to die because I’m getting a free ticket to attend the workshop here in Atlanta AND get this….
One of YOU will get a ticket too!
What is up for grabs? Everything in the picture above including 2 quarts of Annie Sloan paint, clear and dark wax, brushes, those beautiful knobs, colorcharts, gilding wax AND MORE!
Can you still enter even if you can’t come to the Atlanta workshop? YES, you can! IF the initial winner drawn can come to the workshop, they will get the prize package AND the free ticket to the workshop.
If that person cannot come to the workshop, I’ll draw another winner for the ticket giveaway only. Does that make sense?? I promise, it will be fair to all!
Here’s how you can win, leave a comment for each one:
- Leave a comment on this post and tell me IF you can attend the workshop here in Atlanta on March 29th and WHY you are so excited about going to the Annie Sloan workshop?
- Go and visit Robyn’s blog, look at the Annie Sloan paint colors and tell me which one you are dying to try?
That’s it! I’ll leave the comments open through the weekend and choose a winner late Saturday evening.
Check out Annie Sloan Unfolded for the retailer nearest you!

Oh, I so wish I could attend the conference, I live in Washington State… I guess it would depend on how much airfare would be! Ha! Anyway, I love ASCP! I have used Old White, and Provence on a couple pieces and have sample sizes of Old Violet and Old Ochre that I haven’t used yet. I guess I would choose a couple of the newest colors to try!

I can’t make the workshop because it is too far away, but I’d love to try the paints! I love the Paloma and Paris Grey. We recently redid the living room and have an accent wall we need to do something different with. Those colors would be perfect!
Thanks for the chance to win!

OMGoodnes! OMGoodness! I would love to come to the Annie Sloan workshop! I have been dying to learn the technique for the wax and chalk paint! I am in Bham, and I! am a teacher but would definitely develop some sort of “illness” that could only be cured by attending a fabulous workshop to fill my creative cup!
And what I could do with all those new skills…..happiness at home, happiness in my daughter’s room…..oh, my I could spread happiness everywhere! And I would get to meet you, Rhoda (in person) since I feel like I know you from reading your blog regularly! You have inspired me to tackle lots of new projects! Oh my, I could go on and on…..I would LOVE to win the Annie Sloan prize!!!! and try out the French Linen!or the Paris Grey! Gracious, if I learn “how -to” I’m sure I would be looking to find a way to use many of the colors! 🙂

Rhoda I am a child abuse investigator for the Rome police department. In Rome, georgia,it is as you can imagine a very stressful job. I have recently discovered ann sloan paint, I have only tried the most basic common colors but would love to try bold colors, like abussom and emperors silk I find painting and waxing helps me to relieve the stress of my job. I would love to meet up and yes I can attend the workshop is live only 50 miles from Atlanta.
Karen says
How exciting! It would be amazing to learn directly from Annie Sloan!! Although I’d love to be able to attend the workshop, I can’t get there for the 29th. Hope you have a wonderful time, though. The colors I’d be most interested in trying would be Duck Egg or French Linen. It’s hard to decide – they’re all just so gorgeous! Thanks – love your blog!
