Painting with a Twist

I came here for a mothers and daughters Girl Scout event that my friend invited me to and had a great time. Snacks, wine and drinks were allowed, and both the grown ups and kids had a blast following along with the instructor (Cody, a.k.a., Dude or the more formal Mr. Dude) as he walked us through on how to paint a neon butterfly.
Fun and relaxing atmosphere, the girls were singing along to all the songs, and the moms chatted along and tried to help but not get in the way of the girls’ creative process. Hair dryers were provided on site to help speed up the paint drying process; the bathrooms were clean; and although this is a smaller PWAT location, it was easy to move around. Definitely coming back here on one of my next return visits to Dallas :)

Fun date night idea. The first time I went to the Plano location with friends, second time I came to this location with my husband. Mckinney location is smaller than Plano’s but had a good time at both locations. Teacher was patient and good at helping people when needed.

This was so much fun. My second time at Painting with a twist but not first time at the mckinney location. Brought my big family here for grandma’s birthday and they all loved it. Great location across the way from starbucks so if you don’t like alcohol that’s a great alternative. Great instructor and a beautiful picture after. :)

Ashley’s patience actually got beautiful art out of me! My friends and I had a lot of fun. You sign up and pay online then show up with snacks. All supplies are provided and you’re guided through every step until you’ve created a brag piece to hang on your wall. It’s not serious, it’s fun. Ashley kept saying there are no mistakes. My friends and I made lots of mistakes! She just came over and told us how to alter them and, in the end, we all loved our paintings.
You can book private parties if you want to choose a painting that is not already on the online calendar. There is a minimum commitment though and if you don’t get enough people, you are still responsible for the additional costs. They have over 4,000 paintings in their database so they will email you a link then allow you to choose from those. You’ll then be given a pass code to give to your friends so that they can go online and pay to join the class. If you really feel the need to have a painting designed just for you, you may call and talk to the artists at the shop and, for an additional fee, I’m told they’ll create one!
I definitely recommend Painting With a Twist for solo outings or groups. If you go alone, there are always friendly people to chat with. The cost is $ 35 for a 2 hour painting and $ 45 for a 3 hour (more advanced) painting. There is a punch card (I love punch cards!) and at the end they’ll give you 2 punches if you check in with Facebook I got 2 for checking in on Unilocal

So, I was one of the people in the world who heard of this and thought that there was no way I would enjoy it because I am SO terrible at art (drawing/​painting/​etc). However when my mom’s night out group scheduled a night here I figured since wine would be involved (because I was bringing it, this place is BYOB) and many of my favorite ladies would be there, I’d at least enjoy that aspect.
Seriously? This is awesome! No matter how bad you are at painting the teacher takes everything step by step, they pre-​portion out the colors you need and the brushes you need. Yes, your painting isn’t going to look like a perfect replica, but it’s going to look close enough and you’ll have the great memories.
All of the people here were so nice, the owner is VERY supportive of local organizations, and you will have a blast! So bring your favorite adult beverage and have a blast with some friends!

Love this place! Love this concept! …Never been here myself, as I am already an accomplished painter for many years. I have had many colleagues go here with dates, with other friends, for a girls night out, and they made fantastic art. They had a great time, and were very proud of their works. Not to mention it is BYOB!

Boyfriend and I Had such an amazing time! Teacher was very patient and friendly, we were taught step by step and even with zero painting experience, by boyfriend was able to creative a masterpiece that we were more than pleased with :). Will be coming back again, 5 stars all the way!

We recently did a «paint your pet» class and it was super fantastic! I was really amazed that everyone’s painting turned out as well as it did. I would definitely do it again!

You paint for three hours… drink wine. and at the end you might have something fun to hang up in your house. They post the upcoming classes on the web. The people who work there are extremely nice and helpful.

I signed my two sons up for a painting class and they really enjoyed it. They have so many great paintings you can choose to do. If the one you want to do is not on the calendar, just email a request and they will schedule it for you. That’s what I did and I’m really looking forward to it. The ladies are so nice and make you feel right at home.

This place IS open now! Ive gone twice now and I LOVE it! The teachers are great and the crowd here is SO friendly. By the end of the class you can call any of your class mates friend. Don’t be afraid to come alone! Allot of people do! Just come ready to be social and a bottle of wine wouldn’t hurt or any kind of snack. This is a great place for a date or a girls night out. They have summer kids classes for 20.00 and for the older well behaved kids (so around 9 yrs and up) you drop off, come back 2 hrs later and BAM! They created a master piece that will have actually NOT left any residue on your carpets… which I like. ;)
