Went here with a few friends because of a Groupon or Livingsocial that we bought…read more We all had a great time and plan to go back. The only hang up is that everyone who goes makes the same painting, so if you go as a date night, you wind up with two of a kind (obviously a little different). I'm hoping to go again with my mom & sisters. The instructors teach a great class and show you different methods to make your artwork just (ok, almost) like theirs! I bet it'd be a fun time for a low-key bachelorette too!

A friend of a friend was hosting a 2-hour painting class where half of our fee would go toward a…read morebreast cancer support group that her friend is a part of. I couldn't say no to participating since I've seen too many lived ones suffer through breast cancer and treatment. Plus I love being artsy so it was a PERFECT combination of doing good and having fun! There were 12 ladies in the class with all different levels of creativity running through their veins. Our painting was of a vase with flowers in it. I completely took a different (color and style) direction than that of the original painting and was pleased with my results. That's the fun thing about art- do what moves you! The art space itself is decent, comfortable for a group of 12 and I'm sure potentially a few more. But do note that you have to walk up a flight of stairs to get into the painting area. If you're handicapped or unable to walk up stairs, this space is less than ideal. I'm glad I unlocked my art talent once again. It's bee tooooooo long! I'm going to have to hit up an art store for supplies soon so I can make more creations at home. Very inspiring!

I attended a paint party in Niagara Falls run by Canvas Crashers. Best thing about these parties is…read moreit doesn't matter how talented you are. It's all about having fun with the added bonus of maybe ending up with good results. Owner and our instructor Sal was a lot of fun and gave great directions. Lol even if my painting wasn't exactly like his. All the supplies were laid out ready for us along with an apron to protect your clothes just incase! Good move. Sal does parties in his studio along with off site, like the one I attended. So gather some friends and get ready to have fun. My only suggestion would be to have an example of the finished product available at the beginning to see what your picture was suppose to look like. 2021-175

My husband and I attended one of Jessica's events at Applebee's!…read more It was AWESOME! I was impressed with her ability to orchestrate the group despite everyone working on their own individual projects! She offers so many different options at each class--it was a truly unique (and refreshing!!) paint night experience! I have been to several Paint Night-styled events and typically everyone follows instructions to create ONE canvas painting. Jessica's events stand out because the participants choose from several designs to paint on a wide variety of materials --allowing people to pick and choose what suits them, and at the level they feel comfortable creating at! This concept is genius, really... I chose to paint a sunflower piece on canvas with acrylic paint, while my husband chose to paint an Alice In Wonderland themed set of pint glasses. If you know us, you know that these two themes are absolutely PERFECT for us--I couldn't have planned it better myself, actually! The people behind us were painting a set of wine glasses, and several others were working on three other designs on canvas! She offers a faux stained glass option too, but I haven't experienced that yet! The hubs likes to attend paint night (for the drinks and girl chat hahah) but he is a self-proclaimed NON Artist. It was so great to have the pint glass option for him.... it was a simple design that kept him occupied almost the entire time it took me to rock out the sunflowers on the canvas. Her class method truly allowed us to "Paint with (our own) Personality!" And even though there were a ton of people, with a ton of different skill levels, working on a ton of different designs...somehow, she kept the orderly chaos moving along...and EVERYone ended up with a masterpiece at the end! I have liked her page on facebook where she shares info about upcoming projects and classes...There are some pretty awesome winter-inspired designs coming up (specifically the one with the toppling snowmen!! haha).... and I can't wait to attend another class and try the faux stained glass option! I am planning an open house soon and am thinking of having her come to do a craft night with some of my guests! Super cool idea for team building and mingling! Thanks, Jessica... for changing up the game a little...and helping us to Paint with Personality! ;)

I have attended a party at a winery, gone on a paint wine tour and had a private party at my house…read more(pictured on previous page). Had a wonderful time at all three events. Jessica has a bubbly fun personality which make her parties creative and unique. No need to have an artistic talent Jess will help and direct you through every step of the project. Looking for an idea for a bachelorette party, office party, or just a night out with the girls, I would definitely recommend Paint With Personality.

We had the opportunity to take a class with Jennifer Hastings and her company, Create Flow. This…read moreparticular class was building an herb garden. First, we got to petsonalize and decorate our herb container. The one side was a chalkboard. We were supplied with chalk markers to complete this part of the project. We then filled the container with rocks on the bottom (for drainage) and potting soil. We then added the 3 herbs. They included basil, rosemary, and parsley. Lastly, we added whatever top garnishment you wanted in your pot. Jennifer was great with the instructions for this class and included information on how to care for our herbs at home. She was also super nice. This class was held at Briar Brothers Brewery, so we were able to enjoy a brew while there. Check out her website for a list of upcoming classes & locations. She's multi-talented and offers a variety of classes. These include everything from ceramics, jewelry making, gardening, resin art. Chunky knitting, etc etc. Jennifer taught painting classes before covid & then decided to go out on her own after. Check her out. There's bound to be something you'd like to try. You won't be sorry! 2024- 49
