Door Stop Decorating!


Describe it...
Girls painted their wooden door stops while socializing, listening to Disney music, and drinking apple cider.

Location Location Location... 
Gainey 3 South Hallway!

Number that Attended: 
 9

Publicity:
Posters, FB group post, word of mouth

Set-Up:
 All that had to be done to set up is get the paint and paint brushes from the RA office, get the cider and plastic cups, and put newspaper on the ground so the paint didn't get on the carpet. We just set everything up in the hallway.

Clean-Up
 Girls helped clean up everything in the hallway and wash out paintbrushes.

$$$$$
 Only about $5 for the cider. The door stops were donated, and the paint & paintbrushes were borrowed from Gainey!

Positive Outcomes: 
The girls got to know each other better, had fun, and now have pretty, colorful, & fun door stops!

What would you have done differently
 This event was on a Friday night, so I would probably do it a different night so that more girls would have showed up.

Would You Do This Activity Again?  
Yes indeed!
