Ah, winter in Colorado Springs! The snowflakes dance, the air gets crisp, and your cozy, warm home suddenly transforms into the ultimate sanctuary from the chilly chaos outside. While the world turns into a winter wonderland, you might be wondering what to do when the snow is falling faster than you can say “hot cocoa.” Fear not, dear art lovers! Your friendly neighborhood Painting with a Twist studio has got you covered with a list of delightful activities to keep the creativity flowing—even when the weather isn't.
1. Pop Into DIY: Crafting with a Side of Snowflakes
First up, let’s talk DIY. Imagine this: You’re nestled inside, gazing out at the frosty scenery, and you suddenly feel inspired. Why not channel that snowy magic into a creative project? Our Pop Into DIY hours offer a plethora of fun crafting options—from holiday decor to personalized gifts. Who needs a snowman when you can craft a masterpiece that lasts all year long? Plus, it’s a great excuse to unleash your inner Pinterest addict while avoiding the cold!

2. Chunky Knit Blanket Workshops: Cozy Up in Style
Is there anything more comforting than a chunky knit blanket on a snowy day? We think not! Join our Chunky Knit Blanket Workshop and learn how to create your own snuggly piece of art. It’s like wrapping yourself in a giant hug while simultaneously enhancing your home decor. Bonus: these blankets are so big and fluffy, they can double as a snow fort if the need arises (or if you’re really committed to avoiding outdoor adventures). Plus, the satisfaction of knitting something with your own two hands? Priceless.

3. Candle Making Classes: Light Up the Winter
Next on our list of cozy activities is candle making! What better way to combat the winter blues than by creating your very own scented candles? Imagine the warm glow lighting up your home as you settle in for a night of relaxation. You can choose scents that remind you of summer—like fresh cut grass—or go full-on winter mode with cozy cinnamon and pine. Trust us, nothing says “I’m ready for a snow day” quite like the smell of warm vanilla wafting through your home, all while knowing you made the candle yourself. Plus, they make great gifts—or an even better excuse to stay home in your pajamas!
