I just finished the beginners level for Annie Sloan paint on Sun with Debra and I had a fantastic time. Thanks Debra for creating such a welcoming and learning environment in your home. I am looking forward to the next level when you have it available. I highly recommend Debra's class to anyone wanting to try the Annie Sloan products. So many finishes are possible and it is amazing to work with. - Patty M
So in spite of what I’ve heard about how easy Chalk Paint™ by Annie Sloan is to work with, I’m still glad I took this workshop instructed by Debra Boeyenga, owner of A French Touch. I learned so many tips and techniques that will make my life easier, and I’m sure my paint and wax will go a lot farther as a result! - Sheila Z
