Why spend money on one of those "paint and sip" art classes, when you and your crew can have your own creative night in?!
All you need....wine!
Step 1: Pour the wine—a lot for you, a little for the brush.
TIP: You can simmer wine to make the color even darker.
STEP 2: Let your in Picasso go crazy!
Fun fact: The more you drink, the better you'll paint
MATERIALS:
Dark red wine (like a shiraz or pinot noir)
Bowl or ice cube tray
Saucepan (optional)
Paint brushes
Watercolor paper
T-shirts or other fabric
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Pour a splash of wine into a bowl or ice cube tray.
2. For additional colors, simmer wine in a saucepan until reduced. The longer you 3. simmer, the darker the color. Divide colors among the cups of the ice cube tray.
4. Using a paintbrush, make your design on watercolor paper, t-shirts or other fabric. Let dry. If using fabric, cover the painted area with a towel or a piece of scrap fabric and iron on the highest heat setting (holding over each section for about 30 seconds) to set the wine in the fabric.
TIP: To prevent the pages from curling, tape watercolor paper to your work surface before painting.
