Great Escape: Sips n Strokes

Your teens are holding a car wash at the high school Saturday. The grandparents volunteered to take the younger children to a movie Sunday afternoon. Your tweens take tap on Wednesday evening.  It’s your time. Take it.

Each week, we’ll tell you about one great idea to give you a much deserved break, and make your life a little easier, maybe a whole lot easier.

This week, grab your girlfriends, a bottle of wine and some finger food and head over to Sips n Strokes at 3000 Johnson Ferry Rd. for two to three hour painting classes that are available seven days a week. Check out the calendar to discover which paintings are being taught this week.

This is your opportunity to discover the artist within. Don't think you can paint? Think again!  The instructors take you step by step as you make your way from a blank slate to a personal masterpiece. 

I have personally enjoyed three different painting classes at Sips n Strokes and enjoyed the escape it provided. My children were so impressed with Mommy's artistic talents, they both made me promise to paint a replica for each of them for Christmas.  We have since painted several paintings together as a family. But I still enjoy the few hours of grown-up time provided at Sips n Strokes. 

How do you unwind and relax in a busy schedule? Tell us in the comments.
