ALL ABOUT GILDER’S PASTE:

On Wednesday, May 12, 2021 at noon Eastern time come hang out with Courtney on a Facebook LIVE. She will be sharing all about using Gilder’s Paste on projects. See all the colors available and some of the creative cool things you can do with it both inside and outside of your home. Have a wedding in your future and making your own decorations? Gilder’s Paste is an absolute. Want to jazz up your outside mailbox? Why not, right? Use Gilder’s Paste! Freshen up old hardware on pieces of furniture or cabinets. Tune in for more ideas.

INTERVIEW FURNITURE ARTIST – PAMELA

Pam will be sharing how she started her business and will be doing a demo on her blending technique using Chalk Paint® by Annie Sloan to make soft transition between multiple colors. Pam sells her painted pieces at a few venues in NY and is extremely talented.

Again, both events are hosted as a Facebook LIVE.

FREE STUFF?! Join our Rewards Program at The Purple Painted Lady

Posted on 04/06/2021 by Tricia Kuntz

Who doesn’t like to earn free merch?

Hey, hey, Hey!

We just implemented a fun rewards program that keeps track of how much you spend with The Purple Painted Lady and then allows you to get something for free. And “FREE” is awesome in my book!

How do you get free stuff? You need to create an account and then log in when placing orders with us. CLICK HERE TO CREATE AN ACCOUNT ON OUR SHOPPING CART

Then, once you start placing orders, every dollar equates to a point. Points started to be accrued as of March 2021. So, if you have an account – log in to The Purple Painted Lady – click on the “LOGIN TO YOUR ACCOUNT” on the menu bar then scroll down to the “MY REWARDS” section. There you will see how many points you have accumulated and also be able to redeem the points.

Points can be used for free product only. They cannot be applied to shipping or redeemed for cash. The good news is – they don’t expire and you are going to get some free stuff!

These points can be redeemed the next time you order from us. We are unable to apply them to a past order. We have specified products that can be redeemed for points instead of paying full price for them. The points that a product can be redeemed for does not equal the price of the product…for example, a sample pot costs $10.99 but can be redeemed for 400 points. You can think of it like if you spend 400 dollars with us, that entitles you to a free sample pot of Chalk Paint®!

How many points do I have? Super simple. As long as you have created an account on our shopping cart ( The Purple Painted Lady ) and then log in to your account when placing an order- you will accumulate points. So, after logging in How can you see how many points you have accumulated? When you log in to your customer account, the rewards accumulated appear at the bottom of your account information like so:

Clicking on the “View Details” will show information such as when you accrued the points and for what reason. If you click on “Redeem”, it will open a page showing all the products allowed to be redeemed. You can click on Redeem and it will add it to your cart with a cost of zero.

So, the moral of this story is

Make sure to create an account on our shopping website
Make sure to log in to your account when placing an order

Thanks for being part of The Purple Painted Lady Family!

Using Cheesecloth To Remove Excess Annie Sloan Wax on Cabinetry

Posted on 03/29/2021 by Tricia Kuntz

Watch our HOW TO video here!

Are you using light colored Annie Sloan Chalk Paint® on your cabinets and Annie’s Clear Wax for the top coat? If yes, then you really need to watch this HOW TO video about using Cheesecloth to remove the excess.

It is the Bee’s Knees and really will make a big difference in the outcome. (and Yes! You can use this on any of your other projects but on cabinetry….IT IS A MUST!) You always want to shake off the towel prior to using. We just don’t recommend using Cheesecloth for the fist application of clear wax over dark colored paint since Cheesecloth may catch slightly on the porous paint leaving a trace of white fuzz. Hope this makes sense and consider subscribing to our YouTube channel!

If you are interested in purchasing Chalk Paint® by Annie Sloan or would like some help with a project- reach out to us! And….consider purchasing from us too, although we always encourage you to visit your local Chalk Paint® stockist if you have one …but if you are stuck at home and do not have anyone local… The Purple Painted Lady is here to help and can ship your order right to your front door step. Please just place your order online and we will ship it out ASAP! In fact, if you place an order- be confident in knowing that The Purple Painted Lady has everything in stock! What does this mean in the end? With the team we have in place- your order will get packed and picked up by FedX, UPS or USPS. We pack up your order ship your order out our doors the same day you place it – Monday through Saturday. (note however, this is as long as your order came in before 3pm EASTERN TIME, because most of the carriers pick up our packages around 3 or 3:30pm)

Can you help me?

Posted on 03/13/2021 by Tricia Kuntz

Can you please help me? Seriously….I am asking for a huge favor. I am in the running for a grant from Federal Express which will really help with the building of a new bigger location that will offer weekend workshop retreats and have space for lots of inspiration and promote local artists. This is a dream and I am hoping you can help it come true. First it starts out with having people vote for my business. CLICK HERE to vote for me.

Our whole business has been but around helping people. Sure, we sell paint – but it goes much further than that. I wanted to inspire people and give them a way to escape their lives with painting. I help our customers with HOW TO information on painting their cabinets and furniture but when we help people transform pieces of furniture- believe it or not, we also help many of our customers transform themselves. Either getting their self confidence into alignment by completing a project and having it turn out in a way that surpasses that your expectations or just creating an overall rewarding experience. We go beyond surface level guidance! My entire focus from day 1 – was to be the best at customer service. Sure, many businesses talk about providing customer service, but we live it. Our business phone is our personal cell number so all of our customers can reach us at any point of time for assistance and support for the products they purchase from us or that encouraging word that they need. I have always wanted to be approachable and share our energy and our creative life style with our customers….who are our Purple Painted Lady family. We don’t worry about other businesses who do things similar to us…we keep our eyes in our own lane and focus on what we can do better, on how we can show up in a bigger way and intrigue our customers. We don’t just have customers….we build relationships and inspire and they become part of The Purple Painted Lady Family.

We also have a stake in the local artisan community. We have hosted an event for the last eleven years that brings together over 350 artists annually in September. If we were to upgrade to a larger space- we could collaborate all year long and host more events through the year. Through our annual September event, we have been able to contribute financially back to the local community significantly. We want to grow this more.

So, here it is. Super simple- just click on the highlighted link and please, vote daily till March 24th. I know this is a lot to ask….. …but, if you have it in your heart- could you please help me? CLICK HERE to vote for me

This would allow us to do some pretty amazing things for you! My fingers are crossed… my toes are crossed… heck, even my eyes are crossed.

Thank you…thank you…thank you!
