​Creative DIY Project Workshops
​with Laura
Thank you to everyone for your support and patience during these very unusual times. It has been so great to see some of you over the last few weeks! And I am so excited that I am beginning to offer workshops on a limited basis. To adhere to CDC recommendations, I will be limiting the number of students to 4-5 depending upon the set up of the studio for each workshop/project.
I am requesting that everyone wear a mask during the workshop. I hope that everyone will understand this request. If you have any questions, you are welcome to call me.
I have just added two workshops back into the schedule. And I'm busy creating projects for new workshops. As I create them, I will be adding them to the schedule...so please check back soon!
Please "like" or "follow" Studio Primrose on Facebook to be notified of new workshops as they are posted...especially as the seating will be limited.
Please be safe and healthy! Blessings to all of you and your families...Laura

Rustic Plaque using
IOD transfers & Stamps
Workshop

So that you can get to the fun stuff quickly, I will have both natural and painted rustic wood pieces ready for you to begin creating! A selection of IOD transfers will be open and ready for you to cut out and fit to your unique wood piece. And if you would like, the IOD typography stamps will also be ready to add a simple word (no room for more LOL!)  to go with your gorgeous florals. 
All in all it will be a fun and creative time!
To practice "safe distancing", there are only 6 seats available for each of these sessions. Looking forward to seeing you!!!
I recommend that you pre-register for the session of your choice, as I only can open
​6 seats in each workshop to practice "distance" in the studio.
And so that you won't feel rushed creating, the sessions are 1-1/2 hours long.
If you finish more quickly...awesome! And if you need the time, you've got it!
Thank you!

Can't wait to create with you again!

new date coming soon!
Fee: $20
​(includes the rustic wood piece, IOD transfer pieces, and use of the studio stamps, paints, etc.) 
In other words...everything you need to make this piece!

Patriotic Welcome Plaque
​Workshop

​How fun would it be to have this round sign on your front door for Fourth of July!
The 15" round back pieces will be stained in advance so that they will be more than dry
to easily attach the decorative laser cut pieces to the back. 
In the workshop, you will paint and distress all of the decorative pieces, attach them to the back piece and, if desired, make and attach the bow as a final decorative touch.
***Space is limited to 5 students so that we can "distance" a bit.***

Dates:

Sat., June 5th - 10:30am-1pm

Fee: $45 (includes everything!)

 

"Florals on Glass" Vintage Window Workshop

Are you ready to join me for this popular workshop..."Florals on Glass" ...The first one of 2021!

Each time we have this workshop, I am amazed at the gorgeous window everyone creates! Amazingly, each one is unique. And each session I have a new collection of vintage windows from which to choose...small and large, chippy white, green, stained and more. 

For this January session, I will have a nice selection of single pane vintage windows.

The new date will be posted the last week in December!

This is always a fun and creative day! New Late Summer 2021 date coming soon!

Furniture Painting Workshops
​with Laura

​Intro to Furniture Painting

In this new and fast moving workshop, you will create the simple clean...yet lightly distressed..layered paint finishes you see and love on Instagram and Pinterest!
You don't need to buy new furniture! Laura will show you how to renew and re-do your existing furniture easily and with confidence to fit your decor style.
After discussing basic prep instructions, everyone will paint on molding and wood pieces using Debi's DIY Paints (awesome chalk & clay paint!).
Experience how easy it is to layer paint colors, and then watch the magic as you rub back the top layer to reveal the previous stained or painted layers. Learn how to protect your beautiful painted finishes. As the final touch, see what a little bit of wax or antiquing can do to switch things up a bit...Pure awesomeness! These top notch paints have their own nuances. Experience them for yourself and then choose the paint that best fits each of your painting projects!
New!!! We will use Iron Orchid Design alphabet stamps and molds to make your paint samples into fun rustic plaques...can't let a painted wood piece go to waste...right?

​Fee: $40 (includes everything)
Summer 2021 date coming soon!
Location: Studio Primrose at The Rustic Hutch

Bring Your Own (BYO) Furniture Painting Day Workshop

This is your day…How much you accomplish is all up to you!  Students have finished a chair (or 2), end table, lamp base, nightstand, etc. If you are super motivated, talk to Laura about bringing a larger piece and see how much you can accomplish in a day!!! You are welcome to bring an additional piece with you to work on if there is any “wait time” you want to fill and to keep busy. Some students have brought smaller projects for an easier painting day. All of the paints and tools in Studio Primrose are available to you during the workshop to create your finish! Your painting experience, the size of your piece, and the complexity of your paint finish will all determine whether you complete your project during the workshop or if you may need to purchase the supplies to complete the project at home. Varnishing and/or waxing will need to be finished at home to give your gorgeous paint finish plenty of time to dry before the application of a protective finish.

Early registration recommended…limited spaces avail! Summer 2021 date coming soon.

​Fee: $55.00
Workshop location: Studio Primrose (at The Rustic Hutch) 

PLEASE bring any snacks or drinks to keep you going!
***To maximize your workshop time, your piece should be cleaned and prepped before the workshop!
Intro to Furniture Painting is not required. If you have any questions regarding your project, Laura asks that you contact her before the workshop to discuss your furniture piece and what you would like to accomplish.
Project Ideas include: nightstand, end table, dining chairs, etc. We suggest that the size of your project piece should be approximately the size of your CARRY ON LUGGAGE SIZE! After talking with Laura, you may choose to bring a larger piece. However, please keep in mind that you may not be able to finish it during the workshop time. ​
