In a collaboration with Karelia House, I'll be teaching a lamp shade making course as well as painting a lamp base in a co-ordinating Annie Sloan chalk paint. At the end of the day, including a scumptious lunch, you'll be taking home an original lamp!

1. You'll choose a raw wood lamp base, with or without a candle extension to add to its height.

2. You'll choose a fabric from the multitude of choice in Karelia House.

3. You'll choose an Annie Sloan chalk paint to co-ordinate with your fabric.

4. You'll paint your lamp base with a couple of coats of paint.                  }

5. You'll paint your lamp base with a couple of coats of varnish or wax.  } Depending on drying conditions on the day we may change 

6. We'll make a lampshade.                                                                      }                         the order of these three tasks.

7. We'll put together the finished product.
