OK, now get your head out of the gutter! I'm talking about painting!
Today, I took my second trip to a place called Sips-n-Strokes in Franklin...and, once again, I loved it! If you've never heard of the place, you've probably heard of the concept. You go to a studio and everyone paints the same picture...sounds kind of boring, huh? It's so not boring though...especially if you're not a painter or artistic! It's so much fun! I went with five other ladies from church and we had such a blast! None of us are painters and I think that's what makes it so great. We each revealed our insecurities and uncertainties about our own paintings while complimenting and building up everyone else's paintings! Such a woman thing to do....you only see the worst in yourself, but see the best in everyone else!! We laughed, sighed, stressed, and overall had a ball during the two and half hour painting session! I think that at one point the instructor had to take a small break because our little group was laughing and talking so loud! It is so refreshing to spend some time with some great ladies and have such a great time! There were times during my painting that I was completely stressed out, but I still had such a great time! Enjoy the pics!!
It's amazing how we all follow the same directions and end up with such different interpretations!!
We had a choice of two different crosses, but Mary Beth was the only brave soul to take on the "swirly" cross!! Don't they all look so great!! My painting is going above Sadie's crib since her room is done in lime green and hot pink!! Maybe I'll post a pic later!!
