Looking into a Painting with a Twist date night with hubs!
Have you done it? Fun? Better for a night out with GFs?

I've done it with the gf's, I think we enjoyed it more than DH would have...he's not really into that kind of thing.

I never have, but I actually think this would be fun with DH. He is very artistic, and I think he would enjoy a night of painting.

I really wanted to but the ones in my area sell out fast! Make sure to look for Groupon or Living Social deal too! I def think it's more fun with GFs. Plus, what would I do with two identical paintings?

I did one night with friends.
My cousin does a lot with her husband and he looks miserable in the pictures! Not his thing. Plus then you have two of the same painting.

We did a HB meetup at a place like this and it was fun! I think better as a girls night thing. My DH would not be into it at all.

I've painted pottery on dates. It was cute. My husband made me a travel coffee mug and it says Lemon's Mug. I love it.

@snowjewelz: we ended up picking a picture to split in half and we each painted half. It looks cool!

@Mrs. J: Oh that's cool! If I see that option I'd def drag DH to do it

@snowjewelz: we just told the people that we didn't want to have two of the same, so they let us pick through the gallery and they printed it for us to copy.

I have done it twice! Once with a girlfriend and once with my Mom. We had so much fun. But, I don't think my husband would have enjoyed himself. He said he would go with me if I really wanted him to, but both times I have been, there were no other men there.

@Mrs. J: that's awesome! The ones I see around me are themed around one painting at a time.

I haven't done one, but want to. I have a couple of friends nearby that it's perfect for us.

I've only done it with friends but I think it would be a really fun date night!

@travelgirl1: The ones I'm looking up for are specifically set up for couples/date nights! So I think it'd be fun and the painting is set up like @Mrs. J: mentioned, a 2 piece!

Wait a minute -- I just looked up our local paint studio, and it looks like you pretty much all have to paint the same picture as each other. Is that how these usually work? I actually do not think DH would like that at all. He's very creative and would probably like to paint something that is truly his own.
I would do the structured classes with girlfriends, but maybe this isn't DH's cup of tea after all

I am going to one in a couple weeks! Super excited to try it out because I love love love painting but I never get to do it with caring for a toddler all the time I'm going with a Moms Club, though I bet it would be a really fun date too. I have heard great things even from people with no art skills!

Haven't done one myself, but know some people that have. They enjoyed it!
