Who’s ready to dive into the Fall Ball? I know I am, and I’m so pumped to hit our local craft store and scoop up all the goodies we need. If you’re gearing up for our fall-themed extravaganza, here’s your fun-filled guide to shopping smart and making the most of our creative adventure! Check out my Fall Ball prep tips below!
1. Grab That Supply List
First things first—let’s get that supply list in hand! This is your go-to guide for picking up everything we’ll need. If you’re missing a color or two, no worries at all! The Fall Ball is all about creativity, so feel free to improvise. For example, if you can’t find titanium white, just grab a warm white instead. We love seeing unique color choices, so let your imagination run wild!
2. Paint Picks: Go Wild!
When it comes to paint, don’t sweat the price tag. Craft Smart is a wallet-friendly option, but DecoArt is my personal fav for its thicker, richer texture. Try out different brands and see what you like best. And if they don’t have Burnt Orange, Canyon Orange works just as well. Flexibility is key!
3. Glitter Galore and Fun Finds
Yes, glitter is a must! I’m all about clear glitter glue for that perfect sparkle. It’s versatile and keeps things simple. And check out that paintbrush holder—sometimes, it’s the little extras that make shopping so fun. Don’t forget to pick up some graphite paper for tracing your design onto the canvas. It’s a lifesaver for getting those perfect pumpkin outlines!
4. Brushes and Canvases: Keep It Simple
For brushes, you’ll want a flat, a round (size 6 or 8), and a liner. No need to splurge on fancy ones; the budget-friendly options work just fine. As for canvases, grab them in bulk when they’re on sale—like buy one, get one free deals. It’s a great way to stock up for all your upcoming paint parties!
5. Fall Ball Prep: Let’s Get Excited!
We’re kicking off the Fall Ball on Tuesday at 7 pm, and guess what? You can still join in on the fun! For just $10, you get access to all the step-by-step instructions, a tracer, and a whole lot of creative vibes. If you’re feeling extra, there’s a bonus pack with a custom brush set and painting guides—check it out if you’re up for some extra flair!
6. Tracing Made Easy
Tracing your design is a breeze! Use graphite paper to transfer your pumpkin design onto your canvas. Just tape it in place, trace over the lines, and voilà! If you’re feeling confident, you can even outline with a Sharpie for clearer lines. It’s all about making it easy and fun.
7. Join the Party
The Fall Ball is all about creativity and community. I’ll be live on Facebook showing you how to paint this super cute Magical Pumpkin, so join me for some awesome tips and tricks. We’re all about keeping things positive and supportive, so bring your good vibes and let’s have a blast!
8. Get Inspired and Take Action
Remember, the Fall Ball isn’t just about painting—it’s a chance to get inspired, learn how to book and teach paint parties, and see how simple it can be to turn your creativity into a business. The event videos will be available until August 30, so make the most of it and get creative at your own pace.
