Two summers ago, my daughters and I had such a fun time doing a paint party and we were looking forward to doing one again. However, we had no idea the whole country was going to soon shut down. We filled our days with creative crafts and games, but after a while we felt like we’d done it all. There were so many businesses that came up with creative alternatives that families could do to bring them together and make some memories. One example is Paint Party in a Box, which provide everything you need to create a beautiful canvas painting. Let me tell you all about them…
WHY TRAVELERS WILL LOVE THEM
I love that you receive both an instructional step-by-step guide and access to an online tutorial. It’s like having an art teacher in your living room who has provided written instructions for you to follow along with.
The videos are so much fun and teach you lots of helpful tips. What I appreciated was you can pause, rewind, or fast forward anytime you wish. I think I would have been pretty anxious if you couldn’t go back and listen to directions again. The video also gives you different techniques so you can choose which works for you.
WHAT COMES IN EACH BOX?
They honestly think of EVERYTHING! They include a:
12×16 gallery-wrapped canvas
Paintbrushes
custom paint colors
a table cover
brush cleaning cup
painting palette
napkins
disposable apron
a cardboard box easel
WHAT PAINT KITS DID WE GET?
My daughters and I decided to do
Amethyst Night ($35)
We made a whole night of it. First, we had some amazing sushi and then we got ready to paint! We set up a table in the living room and painted as we watched along with the video.
We had a blast and it reminded me of doing a paint party in person. The instructions were easy to follow and also allowed for our own creativity.
I created my next painting during some ‘Me Time’. I painted:
Under the Sea kit ($30)
My husband was gone and my girls were both at a friend’s house, so I decided to do something creative for myself. I poured myself some wine, put some music on in the background, and painted. It’s nice for my girls to see that you can enjoy art as a way of relaxation and self-care.
For the final party, I decided to get my friends involved to do the
Intertwined kit ($35)
I am having them over for a paint and sip party! We are going to drink some wine and make these adorable paintings to give to our kids. It is such a unique girls’ night idea.
WHAT DOES IT COST?
Depending on the kit, they are between $30- $60
Take a peek at them. I love the canvases where you each make a side. That would be great for date nights.
