Ready to discover the secrets to a beautiful aged chalk paint finish?

I can't wait to show you how easy it is!

Ready to start creating stunning furniture finishes?

Welcome to Plain Jane!

So you want to paint a beautiful, authentic and gently timeworn piece of furniture? 

But you find it never quite looks the way you imagined right? 

It looks one way in your head but somehow it never turns out how you hoped?

Creating an aged, layered finish is my absolute favourite way to paint. I have spent years experimenting with different chalk paint techniques. I would love to show you the secrets to mastering these techniques and how easy it is to create authentic and beautiful aged furniture when you have a step by step guide to apply them. 

That is why I created an easy to follow mini course showing you the simple processes to layering up some easy chalk paint techniques and creating the beautiful finish on this side table. You can take these techniques and make them your own by using them to create your own beautiful and unique furniture pieces.

What students are saying about the course

“The videos explanations are bite size, easy to follow- the colours you chose and techniques make me want to get stuck into it. Being able to go back and watch again is wonderful. Such a great format-while in person is good- I can never remember when I go home to do it on my own- well done! ”
