đ·đ Franklin Wine Club joins Painting with Annie for Wine Club Craft Night! đ
There's something special about gathering with good people, a glass of wine, and a creative project that celebrates the season. Annie is so excited to be partnering with the Franklin Wine Club for a cozy evening of crafting during Wine Club Night!
Together, we'll transform recycled wine corks into this charming Wine Cork Pumpkin âa beautiful piece of fall dĂ©cor that's perfect for your mantel, kitchen, or holiday table. With warm autumn colors, a festive ribbon, and rustic charm, it's a keepsake you'll enjoy year after year.
No crafting experience? No worries! Annie will guide you every step of the way in a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. Whether you come with friends, bring your spouse, or treat yourself to a creative night out, you'll leave with a handmade pumpkin and wonderful memories. Throughout the evening, you'll learn about the role of wine corks and gain insight into each wine as we taste it
đ All supplies and wine are included.
đ· Enjoy the fun and atmosphere of the Franklin Liquors wine room and the Franklin Wine Club Night.
đš Just bring your creativityâwe'll take care of the rest!
We can't wait to spend the evening creating, laughing, and celebrating the start of fall with all of you!
See you there! đ§Ą
