The Mother's Day Paint & Sip at Bliss in a Bottle was enthusiastically fun! I treated my wife to this event. We, both, had an enjoyable time being instructed on painting techniques and sampling wine. If you ever have a chance to participate, please, do so! As far as Bliss in a Bottle, they have unique going on here - pairing chocolates with wine. It's an interesting, delectably concept. The wine bottles are artistically designed and visually pleasing. Please, stop in for a visit if you're looking to treat us or that special someone.
