My cousin had been wanting to try their hand at making a wooden sign for a while, so she…read morebrilliantly bought us Christmas gift cards so that we had an excuse to go together, and we had a lovely girls' afternoon at the Art Party Place. It was easy to choose a time for painting --- they have the option to reserve a private party if you have at least 6 people, but we opted to go during their open hours on a Sunday afternoon. They had a table set aside for us with our basic supplies ready and waiting when we arrived, and several other tables set up with customers painting various canvases. They have plenty of design options if you want to choose one of their preselected designs, or for $5 more you can send them a picture of the design you'd prefer and they'll make you an appropriate stencil. I chose to make my own wooden sign and was quite happy with it. We were helped by Katie, a young artist who was so incredibly supportive, encouraging, and easy to talk to. She helped guide us through the process of choosing a paint/stain for the background, learning appropriate technique for the stencil, and choosing a color scheme. She checked in periodically to make sure we felt well-supported, offered words of encouragement, and jumped in to help whenever requested. At the end of the an enjoyable afternoon, I had a sign I could be proud of and that I actually wanted to hang up (unlike the less fortunate results of prior canvas paint nights) --- the use of stencils and guidance made it easy to create great results, even if you're not particularly creative/artistic. We're planning to take our moms for a Mother-Daughter paint day for Mother's Day and we're definitely looking forward to it!

I won't finish todays project until I go back with my one girlfriend. I seem to like to pick ceramics that you can put a tea light candle in, so it gives it an extra effect.
