Neighbor Paint Nights

 

For a few months now, a couple of my neighbors and I have been gathering to do paint nights. It's been fun to work on our skills and try something that does not come super easy to us (well, to those of us who have not been doing this for long). Keep reading to see what we've painted this summer!

My friend Heather told me about a cool way to paint rocks and I agree, it is a fun look to do the paint base layer in this way. Keep reading to see how this is done.

Our house was pretty much move in ready, which I am super grateful for. There were not a lot of projects that needed to be done or things we felt like we wanted to change. About a year of living in the house and the time had come to tweak a few things so we redid the shelves and rods in our bedroom closet to have 2 levels for clothes instead of just one. The walls inside the closet definitely needed to be painted but I figured the clothes would hide most everything and just didn't want to deal with it.

Paint Afternoon with Plaid

 

I invited a couple friends over to participate in the live stream that Plaid Crafts has been doing monthly that is a paint along session! This month was to make these cool tote bags with flowers and grapes (if you wanted) on them. I did mine on a pillowcase, I thought I had more cloth bags but apparently I didn't. I love how ours all turned out so different, as is what usually happens during a paint night.

I am partnered with Plaid and they send me lots of cool products and for this project they sent me everything I needed, 2 bags, the watercolor paint, brushes...they are such a great company to work with and I love all their products. I'll continue to feature more on my blog posts here in the future!

Paint Night with Plaid Crafts!

Then I found out that Plaid hosts paints nights that you can participate in from your home. I thought, maybe I should give this a try again. So...
