Bachelorette Party (May 16th, 2105)

Tonight was our oldest daughter’s, bachelorette party. Our youngest daughter has done a great job planning it, especially since some of the girls are under 21, and she herself has never even been to a bachelorette party. It took her a long time to come up with this idea, but once it came to her, she knew this was going to be the perfect night.  

The girls came to our house for dinner at about 5:00. We made them a nice dinner of Milwaukee pork chops with rice and broccoli. We wanted all the girls to have a good dinner to help offset the drinking that some of them would be doing.  While the girls were eating, Steve and I drove over to Pinot’s Palette, a little painting and cocktails place in the Hyland’s part of Denver, to drop off a bunch of snacks. The staff at Pinot's Palette had reserved the back room just for the girls, and were busy getting all of their canvases set up and paints poured.  They were paying attention to every detail to make this a special night.  

We carried in all of the snacks and were introduced to the instructor, Greg, that would be teaching the girls how to do their painting, and had a beer while we were setting up the food. They were so welcoming to us, and allowed us as much time as we wanted to set up, enjoy our beers and look around.  

At Pinot's Palette, the front room is used for public painting events.  They have a schedule of when they will be doing each painting, and you can call and reserve a seat for that painting.  When you get there, the main room is set up with long tables, and there is a small bar at the back.  They provide you with an apron, easle, canvas and paints.  Throughout the night, the bar is open with a nice selection of cocktails and non alcoholic drinks for purchase at very affordable prices.  

They have an instructor and an assistant for each class, and starting from a blank canvas, they teach you how to paint a painting.  Each person is invited to add their own personal touches as they go through the directions, and some people even go way off course and paint whatever they feel like.  It is such a fun experience, and at the end of the night, you will come home with your very own painting that you painted yourself.  It is a great place for date nights, a girls night out, or any other evening out.  

They also offer private parties, which is what the bachelorette party will be.  If you do a private party, they give you a lot of flexibility with the room.
