There are few things I love more than a spontaneous Saturday. So when brunch flowed into, "Let's go to Board and Brush," I pulled out my pennies and made it happen at the last minute.
I am so glad that I did.
This was my first time experiencing Board and Brush as I am more of a Painting With a Twist, chick; however, I loved the banging, staining and painting that went into the creation of my new board. Now, I want to stain EVERYTHING! LOL I am thankful that the owner easily accommodated my last minute addition.
The layout of the space was pretty good though I wish my table had been pushed a little more away from the wall because the employees had to access things behind me a lot during the session and that was a little uncomfortable. It was also difficult to hear instructions sometimes and I think might have been helpful for the staff to have whistles to get everyone's attention for important things. Our group was highly verbal (smile).
One additional thing that would have been nice is if we'd had the ability to adjust the design a little bit. I did not know that the corporate trademark designs were so very rigid that we couldn't do something simple like add a hook to the front of the board to accommodate the calendar I am going to hang from my board. Corporate really should give sites that bit of flexibility but it's cool because I'm going to install one myself as soon I get home.
Overall, I had a great time with my friend and made a few new friends along the way. Great way to spend a Saturday! read more
