A STOURBRIDGE furniture and homeware store is hoping to help raise £25,000 for the NSPCC.
Oldswinford Galleries will hold a special late night fundraising event on Friday November 21 from 6.30pm.
Budding interior designers will be invited to watch painters use Annie Sloan's decorative paint to create unique pieces and pick up hints and tips while enjoying Prosecco and mince pies.
The Hagley Road shop is one of hundreds of Annie Sloan stockists across the UK taking part in the fundraiser.
Shop owner, Juliet Walker, said: “As a group, the UK stockists collectively decided that if we joined forces we could potentially raise a lot of money for charity.
"We choose the NSPCC because it is dedicated to finding ways to prevent abuse from ruining children's lives and we would consider it an honour to play even our small part in supporting its work."
Admission is free but there will be a donation box so visitors can help raise vital funds for the children's charity.
Additionally, the store will have large hanging white wooden hearts and stars in the workshop upstairs, where customers can use Annie Sloan paints and waxes to paint one in the colour and finish of their choice and take home for a small donation.
