TIP: If you’re not typically a painter, I highly recommend watching video tutorials for painting on YouTube – there are tons of videos to help you! Use that video before the party to create your sample painting, and to help you learn how to do the presentation.
Demonstrate how to complete the painting by guiding everyone with brush strokes and using different size brushes for different effects. Demonstrate that the center well can be used for mixing colors. When your guests arrive, it’s time to get started! Show your guests the supplies they have, and guide them to put pea-size amounts of each color of paint into the small circles on the outer ring of their paint palettes. Photo was taken before the party started, so not many snacks yet until everyone brought something to share. TIP: Ask each guest to bring a snack to share – that way you won’t have to do all the preparation, and everyone will have a variety of snacks to choose from. Set up your Snack station if you’re serving snacks – include snacks, plates or bowls, and any utensils you might need. This is optional, but makes it more personal for your guests. TIP: If you want, you could paint index cards ahead of time with each person’s name on the card, and use these cards as placecards. Place a paint set in between two place settings for people to share. Cover the surface with a table cloth, then place an easel, canvas, pack of brushes, paint palette, water cup (filled with water), and a pencil at each place setting. At least an hour before your guests arrive, you’ll want to set up your Paint space – a dining room table or center island can work well, depending on how many people will be attending. Snacks (if you want to make this a Paint, Sip, and Snack Party). Various Alcohol (whiskey, vodka, gin, tequila, rum) or Drink Mixers (sour soda, tonic water, sparkling grape juice, orange juice, pineapple juice, etc.). We used the Cocktail Artist mixers, the name of these mixers was perfect for an art party I purchased a variety of clear glasses from thrift stores so everyone could choose their own glass 
Sample of painting for the night (optional, but very helpful).Pencils (one for each person, for sketching).We used a set that included the brushes, palettes, and paint We used the 8×10 inch canvases, but you could choose a larger size if you’d like Paint Canvases or Stretched Paint Canvases (one for each person).The easels we used can hold a canvas in either landscape or portrait orientation – very cool!

If you’re looking for something to do with your family, give this a try! Here’s how to create a DIY – Paint and Sip Party. It gave us all a chance to hang out together, have a bunch of laughs, and create something we don’t normally do – that’s what made it even more fun.
Well, a Paint, Sip and Snack Evening to be precise. Our February Family Fun Night was a Paint and Sip Evening. These Family Fun Nights are held at our house and are always fun for everyone.
As a way to keep my family entertained this Winter, I create a Family Fun Night every 3-4 weeks. Winter months can seem very long when it’s too bitterly cold to have fun outside.
