Ever since I first saw
The Princess Diaries years and years ago (If you haven't seen it, go do so right now), I've really wanted to fill up water balloons with paint and throw darts at them (like they do in
this scene). So finally, at my turn to host monthly craft night, I decided to make it happen. So after days of planning and trial and error, it still didn't really work like I wanted it to. Either the balloons didn't fill up or the darts didn't pop them. I'm still determined to make it happen one day - I'll search high and low to find the stretchiest balloons and sharpest darts. But regardless of my Princess Diaries-induced heartbreak, it was a pretty fun craft night. We put all of our canvases on a drop cloth on my kitchen floor and just dropped paint all over the place. Some people even did some mixed media art using balloons and tape and other stuff. So now I have some cool new art for my apartment, and as always we enjoyed some great food and wine.
We discussed
The Fault in Our Stars by John Green, which I LOVED. Have any of you read it? I'd love to hear what you thought about it!
