A bit about me:

Save, restore and recycle - that’s the magpie in me talking!

My journey began well over 30 years ago when I enrolled on a workshop with Annie Sloan herself!. I was hooked!  You could say, I have had Chalk Paint™ covered hands for as long as it has existed. I was one of the first Annie Sloan stockists and taught from my studio in Southern Spain. Our interiors section worked for folk in their beautiful Mediterranean homes.

Later, at Annie’s Oxford HQ I mentored her stockists and taught workshops alongside The Queen of Chalk Paint™! It was an exciting time as her business took shape, establishing her creation, growing into the empire it is today. Following on from here I popped back into a more customer based life with my shop “Sheldon Paint” in Hampton TW12 for 10 years.

So that’s my past and now for my present!

It’s time to concentrate on my own work painting furniture for sale. I love layering colour after colour, making patterns with decoupage, stencil, freehand and gilding; gentle colour blending or a rough and textured finish depending on the piece. With so much good quality but unloved real wood furniture around I pick pieces that take my fancy and put them back in use once again. Save, restore and recycle - well that’s the magpie in me!

I also teach Arts and Crafts Workshops both in Brighton and Hampton (London TW12). Apart from the official Annie Sloan workshops, I have a series of my own to complement them . My workshops start again in September 2024 but meanwhile you can have a look at our Arts and Crafts workshops .page for more info.

So join in and basically, get as mad about paint as me!

Dip into my world of painted pieces - you never know there might be something you just can’t resist!

Enjoy! xx Jane
