Each year we try to improve on our efforts and we are pleased to do it again. It is the perfect way to get a jump start on your 2020 holiday painting season --------------------------------------------  You are familiar with countdown activities where you open a "gift" each day of the countdown. Our countdown works in a similar manner. Starting August14th large priority envelopes will be mailed with 12 sealed envelopes inside. Each envelope contains a pattern, instructions, color photo AND THE SURFACE. There are full online videos for each project. All the projects are NEW and have never been published. There are 12 ornaments being featured this summer. There will be also be EXCLUSIVE STENCILS included in the kit.   Each day starting August 28thth and ending September 8th a new project will be presented online. You can open the day's envelope at home, open your pattern and watch the video if you wish.  Your surface and stencils will be there. All you need to do is add paint.  . NOTE: If your schedule does not allow you to work on this now, no problem.  You will be able to work at your own pace in the future and the videos will be there for you for up to one year. That gives you plenty of time to paint. If you are not into videos, you don't have to worry; you are getting all the printed materials, photos and surfaces for each project in the envelope. No downloading or printing needed. So if you are too busy now, don't worry you can start when your schedule permits. If you are an overachiever there is nothing I can do from stopping you from ripping into the envelopes ahead of time!!!!   It is easy to participate: Register online or give us a call to register.  The registration fee is just $75 which includes US priority shipping. The retail value is $125. Canadian registration is $94 due to higher priority shipping costs.  Early registrations qualify for a bonus 13th project, surface and video.* Starting August 15th priority envelopes will be mailed to participants with the goodies. You will be given written instructions, addresses and codes for getting additional online materials in your packets.
