I am interested in learning what to do with wooden finds. I often run across small wooden furniture, wood boxes, etc. from garage sales, thrift stores, etc., and want to upscale or repurpose them for resale – but I don’t know what my options are, or how to evaluate the work involved. I don’t know enough about wood and/or refinishing and/or painting to know how to approach things. Do I have to sand it? Do I always need a primer? Can I just paint it? How do I get different effects?
Is there anyone who can present a class where we each bring a wood object and walk through the options, maybe see some examples of finished work? Do we have the resources here to meet once/week for a couple of weeks and work through our projects?
Just throwing this out there to see if there’s interest in presenting or attending.
