We were a group of seven for a bachelorette party and were excited about the event because we've…read moredone a few in the past and the leader made it fun and easy to follow. But that's not what we got. We enjoyed our time together bc we're happy to see each other, HOWEVER, one thing that we all agreed upon was that we were quite disappointed in the hands-off approach. In previous ones that we have done, there's an instructor at the front, guiding, you step-by-step through the process of painting the selected piece. They typically helped you find the correct blend to make the colors. Guided you through how to correct mistakes... very hands on and active. The reminder email received even says, "You're going to have a blast with our artist-entertainer! No experience is necessary to be expertly guided in creating memories, not masterpieces." And this is NOT what we got at all. Neither expertly guided nor entertained. We got step-by-step written instructions that were vague and everyone abandoned reading them at all. We didn't make a scene but did verbally express our chagrin and confusion that the instructions weren't clear, but it fell upon deaf ears. Our youngest attendee, a 14-year old, even painted the instructions page black to show her frustrations with it. There was "encouragement" - every few minutes our babysitters would walk by and say "that looks great" but when asking for help, one said they could help, but then did nothing, and the other helped after some pleading bc our friend really wasn't happy. Finally, of our girls gave up altogether and didn't finish hers at all saying, "I'm having more fun talking to my friend." I don't know if all places are like this now but if so, we will not do anything like this again. At the end when we were told our paintings turned out so well (minus the abandoned one) we mentioned that in others we've done, there was a lead and more help. The response was that this was a "workshop" and since there were multiple projects going on in the room, it was an independent thing. So be aware. This was something we could've done in our own home for half the price. Update: The owner reached out to me and pointed out that on the purchase page it did mention a printout would be given (see attached photo). However, the personalized event email to me the day prior said "expertly guided." So to me this would be the most updated info to pay attention to. After conferring with the other attendees we felt it fair to update from 2 to 3 stars. I firmly believe that this isn't the norm and should have been more emphasized. Additionally, we didn't feel it deserved 4 stars because as open as we were about making it known that we were not understanding the printout instructions, we still didn't get and "expert guidance". Had we gotten help, the other detail could've been forgiven.

This last Friday night my hubby was working late.

I had THE BEST time. I really didn't have a clue how to paint a beach scene....but the engaging instructor helped me (and 7 of my new friends!) put brush to paint to palette to create an adorable scene the studio calls Corona Beach. When I got there and checked in I picked a spot at the tables where easels, paint brushes, water, and a painting aprons were just waiting for each of us who had made reservations - there was also room for walk ins. Right now the studio is set up as a BYOB so I brought a little bottle of my own favorite wine to enjoy. From the first brush stroke to the finished product with the step by step instruction there were lots of laughs and time flew. A couple of hours later we were all holding our own renditions of the painting and everyone was happy. This is a great place to bring friends and family for a fun night or possibly for a celebration ( anniversary, birthday, shower ), and I would think for team building functions for businesses. I had a great time and will go back. I guess I do have a little artistic side after all! Thanks Palettes and Pairings TEXAS!

She even spent time with each of us to make sure our painting was going in the direction we wanted it to. By the end, everyone had a (surprisingly) unique painting, even though we were all following along step by step. I thought it was really cool to see everyone's personality really shine through in their picture, and it was especially awesome having a keepsake for everyone to remember my bachelorette party. I've been to other sip and paint places, and this one is by far the best! Definitely an amazing small business to support. Bonus points for having such a cute location! They also have bubble tea and coffee, but I didn't try those (we were focused on the wine). I'll have to stop by next time and check their drinks out.
