Host a Dreamy Mermaid Painting Party

I don't know about your kiddos, but my girls are swooning over the new live action Little Mermaid! Let's be honest - so am I! This summer is the perfect time to capture the mermaid magic and host a dreamy mermaid-themed painting party.

​My favorite thing about including a painting activity in parties for kids is that they get a beautiful and creative reminder of the fun that they've had to hang on their wall. It'll bring them joy and pride every time they look at it!

STEP 1: PICK A DATE & INVITE FRIENDS

Pick a date and time that works well for you, and rest assured that your home is the perfect painting party venue. We recommend that you allow around an hour to paint if you are painting small canvases (around 8"x10") or two hours to paint if you're painting canvases closer to 16"x20". Most people underestimate how long the painting will take, so be sure that you're allowing enough time.

When you're ready to send invitations, be sure to check out the gorgeous options on Etsy! There are so many nice ones that you can edit and send in a matter of minutes.

STEP 2: ORDER YOUR CANVAS PAINTING KITS

Don't make a million runs to the craft store, and don't stress about how you're going to teach the kids to paint mermaids. We've done all the work for you!

Our canvas painting kits include all of the supplies you'll need to paint your mermaid masterpieces. We even draw the design on the canvases for you! Plus, you'll even spend less than if you buy all of the supplies individually. 

All of our painting kits come with a video tutorial to walk you through every step of the painting, so you don't have to know how to teach the kiddos to create their canvas painting masterpieces! Just pull the video up on your tv, or use a projector to put it up on the wall. Our friendly painting instructor, Laura, will walk them through every step!

STEP 3: TAKE YOUR PARTY TO THE NEXT LEVEL WITH DECORATIONS!

Whether you're a low-maintenance party planner (like me) or you like to go all out, decorations can make the party feel so special for the kids. Brittany from Sideline Socialite has laid out so many incredible decoration and refreshment ideas for you - you have to check them out! Personally, I think if you only used a quarter of her ideas, your party would still be pretty amazing. But if you like to take your parties to the next level, she can definitely help you do that!

With the right planning, the easy-to-use painting kits, and the extra special touches of decorations and snacks, you can throw the stunning mermaid painting party your kids are dreaming about!
