Let’s be honest sometimes playing with your kids just isn’t fun. There I said it! There is only so much I know about Minecraft to talk about and constantly battling super hero’s just isn’t always my jam. So, while I love my boys dearly I’m constantly trying to get them to do more arts and crafts type of play, which is right up my alley. They are not really into coloring in coloring books, but I can get them to draw on blank paper and they love any sort of wooden craft that they get to paint. Now as a child I loved going to any sort of plaster fun time place and getting to pick an item, paint it and then of course get it sprayed with glitter and a shiny finish. The boys have done this a ton at birthday parties, but I wanted to step things up and take them to an actual pottery place where the items will get baked in the kiln. I happily wandered upon, Little Art Studio, a studio space where you can paint pottery, canvas, wine glasses, etc. They host birthday parties and evening events, but you can also just walk in and paint! So, one snowy day we did just that!
Because it was a snowy day we actually lucked out and had the studio all to ourself. The employee that day told us had crazy it had been days before hand with people literally being elbow to elbow.
I swear they were excited to be there! Haha.
There favorite part was grabbing all of the paint! They went nuts picking out a different million shades.
We had a really nice time and then crossed the street for a yummy slice of pizza and amazing buffalo chicken roll at Angelina’s.
Since your items get put in the kiln you need to pick them up a week later! We headed there this past weekend and I love how my item came out!
So, cute! I figured I could use it on my desk with office supplies, but I could also use it for entertaining with appetizers or cookies.

My living room is one of the rooms that evolved drastically from when we first moved one. Originally I painted the walls chocolate brown and did accents of white, blue and orange. That lasted maybe 2 years.
Our dining room sat empty for months. Okay maybe it was empty for just a handful of weeks and then we couldn’t take it anymore and put in a folding table and plastic outdoor chairs, but in my mind that was still empty.
On the main floor of our house we have a Florida room. Being that it’s a Florida room it is a considered a 3 season room, because there is no heat in the room. The previous owners used it as an indoor patio with outdoor furniture and it looked like this when we moved in.
Fall is the perfect season to host an outdoor movie night in your backyard! It’s that time of year when outdoor furniture is still outside and it gets dark earlier than the summer which means your little kiddos can enjoy the movie night as well. It’s so nice to transform your backyard with cozy blankets, […]
Can you believe it’s already November? Before we know it Thanks No. 1 Modern bar cart with patterned sides that looks great as is, but would also look amazing painted a pop of color! Plus it’s only $157. No. 2 This lucite bar cart is a personal favorite of mine. Look at those chic lines! […]
For the longest time our backyard was mainly just grass and a little small area where we laid down some pavers so that we could set out a little plastic table/chairs during the summer. Not exactly ideal for entertaining. For the past couple of years we have wanted to build a deck and enjoy the […]
I love places like that.
