Paint Me Room and Basic Painting Classes now at Cecil's!

Big Announcements today.......

First.... Cecil's is excited to introduce our all new "Paint Me Room". In this room located in the back of the store, you will find great pieces of furniture and other items that we just don't have the time to paint and need them gone ASAP! Our loss is your gain. Pieces in the room include anything from suitcases to ladders. All pieces are in good condition, just may need a little wiping down. All can be painted using our BRAND NEW chalk based paint line, Vintage Market and Design!! Spend $25 or more in our Paint Me Room and get 10% off your paint purchase the same day.

Second.... PAINT CLASSES ARE HERE!!! Read below for a detailed explanation of the two classes we are going to be offering later this month. Hurry and get signed up. Last day to sign up is Saturday, June 6th.

--- Beginner PYOP (Paint Your Own Piece) Class / Two Part Class--- We will be painting a piece of furniture that you bring. You will learn a few tricks and techniques, and get over that fear of the paint brush. The second part of the class, held two days later, includes putting a finish on the same piece with a tinted wax, and learning how to seal with clear coat.
When? Session One will be held Saturday, June 21st from 6:00-8:00 or until you are finished. Session Two will be held Monday, June 23rd from 9:00am-12pm. This is a drop in time to come learn how to finish up your piece with a tinted wax and how to clear coat your piece to seal it. If Session Two times are not good for you, we can schedule a private appointment, no worries.
Who is it for? This class is for anyone that has had a small piece of furniture sitting around their house for months, that you intentioanlly bought at a yard sale to try your hand at painting, and just got too scared to pick up that paint brush. Bring it on in and let's make it fabulous. No stress, I promise.
What's Included? At this class you will receive a 16 oz. jar of paint in your choice of color, a paint brush, sanding block, sample wax jar, clear coat, and a light snack.
What do I bring? Bring the piece you want to paint. Acceptable pieces include an end table, coffee table, chair, etc. If you can carry it through the door by yourself, bring it.
