Antique chair prep!

Stay tuned for these transformations with Fusion Mineral Paint! Headed to The Gathered Cottage soon Fusion Mineral Paint

Good day to all my wonderful creative friends. I want to do something a little different and offer a Paint Your Own Piece Fusion workshop BUT offer a class for a large ( I must approve it) piece of your own tired or dated furniture! On Sunday, March 29th, there will be 3 available spots to transform a dresser, small sideboard, desk etc at The Gathered Cottage. ( above pictures as examples courtesy of Pintrest) The piece would be brought into the workshop space, class will ...start at 10:00. Lunch will be provided, as well as the Fusion paint color of your choice to use and take home. On registration of class, we can privately discuss the piece you want to transform, and vision you want to achieve, and the process needed from prep to finish. I will also supply the supplies needed brushes, finishing product ( oils, waxes and/or top coats) A Fusion protective apron, gloves, etc also available. Depending on the finish you desire, there may be some prep work needed to do at home, sanding the top of a piece to bare wood for example. I am estimating class should go from 10:00 am til 3:00 pm. Pieces could be left to dry etc and pick up time coordinated for the following day if necessary. Cost of workshop is 150$ plus tax. You must prepay to be registered. Let's head into spring with a beautifully transformed piece YOU create for your home. It still amazes me what paint can do to change a space, and how it fills your soul! Message me if interested. Thanks! Let's #paintitbeautiful See more

Two new additions to The Gathered Cottage! I love refinishing antique dressers. First, this lovely mirrored piece is done in Fusion's newest color, French Eggshell. Such a delicate blue, ( hint of pastel green?) A fun floral transfer for a touch of whimsy, new hardware and pretty lined drawers. Asking 325$ This antique pine dresser had been in the former owners family since 1880's and was made in Nova Scotia. As much as I love antique pine it just needed some help. Goddess Ashwagandha is one of Fusion's most recent colors from the Lisa Marie Holmes collection. Another delicate transfer and a perfect little piece for your home or cottage. Asking 225$ Please feel free to message me or pop into the store to have a peek!

New to the store blanket ladders done in solid pine. They are 68" tall, 16" wide and steps or shelves are 3.5 " deep. One done in Fusions Golden Pine SFO, one done in Driftwood. Asking 79$ each.

Both the serving tray with transfer workshop and PYOP workshop for January 15th and 19th are now full. I will be posting more classes soon. Thanks!
