Project Life: Painting for the First Time

I went to this Awesome place called Painting with a Twist. It's a painting class where they also serve wine and beer. It's just a really fun atmosphere and the teacher was really funny and cool. The painting we did was the Eiffel Tower at sunset.

Now the class I did was $35 and the canvas is included with the price which is awesome and you obviously get to take your painting home. I had a couple glasses of white zin while I was there too.

Now I love how my background turned out for my painting. I kind of wish I left it at this because you will see soon my Eiffel Tower does not turn out very well. But painting this background was really relaxing and this was a really great way to get rid of some stress.

Now this is the finished piece. I know, I know the Eiffel Tower is a little messed up. But hey it was my first time painting anything ever. So I kind of think it turned out pretty good. And my boyfriend said it looks good. To me that's all that matters. Even though he is probably just saying it to cheer me up since I was upset that the Eiffel Tower didn't turn out how I wanted it to.

I would totally go back to Painting with a Twist so I can practice and get better at painting. It is so much fun and you can do private parties and special events there. Or do what I did and just go to one of there classes. It is a chain in Florida so if you haven't been and want to do something cool you should check out the website and find one near you. You can see what they are painting before you go in and you book your seat in advance.

GeekyCon 2016 Highlights

Meeting Maxwell Glick and Jon Cozart after the Disney sing-a-long after being on stage with them during a Tangled song and being in the front row dancing with them, two very sweet gentleman and I'm so happy I got to meet them and getting some youtube advise from Mr. Cheezypop himself! At the Charity ball I got to meet Ty Simpkins who is from Jurassic World and the Insidious films. He was also very sweet and nice of him to come out of the V.I.P area to interact with his fans and take photos for free and have nice conversations with everyone. That same night after the dance was the Harry Potter and the Cursed Child midnight release party! Potter Puppet Pals did a show, there was real life wizard chess, quid ditch matches, costume contests, being sorted by the sorting hat, and much more to do. It was so much fun and of course getting the book was icing on the cake. Then I got to meet Pemberly Digital! Frankenstein M.D., The Lizzie Bennet Diaries, and my p...

Tea Cup // Outfit Of The Day

I went to a tea room for lunch and this outfit inspired by English rose gardens and those pretty bone china floral tea cups. The back of the dress is open so I work a bralette that is a pastel pink and lace one. It went with the whole English tea room theme of the outfit and for the tea room we went to. The dress is white with pastel pink painted ross on it. I got it last year at Forever 21 and I don't think they sell this dress anymore. I really love the shape and color of the dress. I didn't want any shoes that took away from the dress so I paired this outfit with my nude flats I got at a boutique in California. The purse is by Betsy Johnson and I love wearing this with pastel outfits. It has a black bow and a pink fluff ball on the side. Gold chain and black straps. Its a fake leather with little black hearts. This has been one of my go to purses right now. Make sure you checked my previous blog post about the tea room I went to (The Twisted ...

Words To Eat By: Letrentehuit Brassiare

When we went to the Eiffel Tower we found a traditional french style restaurant called Letrentehuit Brassiare. I can't tell you exactly what street it was on but it was very close to the Eiffel Tower. The service was a little weird and my mom and I couldn't help but laugh at how it was run. But it was a great dining experience. My entree was a traditional cheese crepe with a side salad. It was a french cheese where I'm not sure what kind of crepe they used. It was brown, as you can see in the photo, and it had a more savory taste it. I really wanted a crepe to eat in France and a savory one was a great choice. I also had a glass of french rose wine and of course the bread was a baguette. Dessert was the best part. Which isn't a surprise being in Paris. I thought it would be best to get a small dessert sampler. Top left was a pistachio mousse., top right was a chocolate mousse, bottom right was a toffee mousse, and the bottom left is clearly a creme bru...
