Every moment from the day they are hired until retirement is a chance to strengthen relationships and provide a great work environment that has employees there for their entire careers. So typically a send-off Retirement Party is traditional and meaningful.
When your coworker is ready to retire, you want to be sure that you help them finish their amazing career with the feeling of admiration for the time they gave. The greatest gift you can give them is a happy memory to mark the end of this chapter of their life.
Throw them a Retirement Party
You could do the same old mundane drinks and decoration type of send-off or you could make it memorable with a Paint and Sip party!!!

How does summer transition to the fall color palette you ask? I can’t believe that it is almost September! The month that sends a gentle reminder that the end of the summer is here. Time flies in the summer months when the kids are out of school and vacations are planned. I find myself leaning toward earthy fall colors when we lean into the Fall! It is still hot enough for the hottest late summer colors as well as early fall days. For example rich greens, golden yellows, mauvy pinks and reds, creams, beiges, browns, etc.
How do we change to fall when painting?
It is easy to mimic autumn just by amping up the fall tones. With the colors mentioned above and with burgundy, deep greens, mustards, etc.
The colors in nature in additon to the cozy feelings autumn brings us, people are always stopping to take it in. Like a pumpkin patch, an apple orchid, the autumn equinox, and harvests. These are all against the backdrop of the fall season.
Painting and Vino’s fall color palette
Fun and enjoying feeling is embraced in so many ways. I personally get a real sense of fall when I can sip on a warm cup of coffee with pumpkin flavoring. Some start to get in the mood with sweater weather as well as the forever-changing leaves and crisp air. Another way to get in the fall season is to partake in a paint and sip class with Painting and Vino. You can find out what we have in store for you this September. You can request a private class with a custom design that gets you in the mood for a fall color palette.
All in all, Fall is really one of the most nostalgic times of the year because the season always seems to prepare us for what is coming. Daylight savings, Halloween, Thanksgiving, as well as winter. But that is for another day. Fall is definitely an atmosphere therefore we like to think we help bring it to life with a brush and canvas while sipping on an aged wine or holiday limited edition brew. Regardless, join Painting and Vino for a painting experience that will have you falling in love with fall. Check out upcoming events. Nothing says fall like gathering with people and ones you love.

How to plan the Perfect Sip and Painting Party. You will learn that not everyone that joins a Painting and Vino class has experience or thinks they are any good at painting. The act of painting is more fun and engaging than sitting next to people watching a film. It is also far less competitive… depending who you have join you than fantasy football or trivia night.
Enjoying the company of others, whether it is family, friends, colleagues, etc you can rest assure everyone will enjoy delicious food and drinks amongst one another.

Why a Wine & Painting Party
Connecting with others in person is a positive boost to your emotional well-being. It also gives you a chance to bond, reconnect, or build synergy with co-workers. Re-creating a picture will give your group a place to to feel good and focus on your artwork, nothing expresses your feelings more than you with a paint brush, so have fun.
We have found in most events, by the end if not all, some are surprised at how well their paintings turned out. What a great booth for your self-confidence.
Think you are too old or young, not your thing? Did you know painting has shown to improve not only your emotional health but motor skills as well. So push away your phones, keyboards, etc and grab a paint brush with us! Another fun tidbit is your concentration and possibly overall distractive personality also will improve as well research suggest. Matter a fact, it has been proven that many enter a state of creative flow when engaged in painting and some have even experienced forgetting the temperature of their surroundings. Interesting for sure, isn’t it?
Give yourself plenty of timely booking your party as early as possible in advance with our artists –Don’t forget to give your guests enough time to RSVP. We suggest at least 2 weeks in advance or as early as a month in advance to ensure an artist is available. A month in advance may seem too much, but everyone get busy and booked up. Getting final headcount in advance will also be important for your artist and overall planning of supplies and space needed as well as time for set up. painting (runs 2 hours to 3 hours depending on difficulty), and take down. Your guest will also need breaks and time to refill their drinks and nibble on some food. So plan for 4 hours minimum.
If you are having it in your home, you can alway suggest to your guest a potluck and to BYOB or favorite bottle of wine. People like to help! Whatever you do, don’t overthink it. You will also need to consider a place for your guest to paint and sip at. Though our artist come with all that you need to paint, we do not provide the tables and chairs for your guest.
Like I mentioned earlier, you can ask about one of our partner venues as a location for your party. We may be able to suggest the perfect place. Our venues are places normally with food and alcohol, if not at least alcohol for your sipping pleasure.
Choosing the theme of your Painting Party
Choosing a theme helps narrate the evening. Our artist have a portfolio of pre-created designs along with holiday themed painting for you to choose from or you can request a custom one as well.
So if you are planning a party in the upcoming months, fall themes or halloween focused paintings might be perfect for your party.
Be sure to ask your artist the level of difficulty, especially to not over complicate the event designed to be relaxing and fun.
