Holiday Fun, In & Around Addison, Texas With Friends & Family! From Pinot’s Palette Addison



The holiday season is full of so many wonderful things! 

From decorating and baking, to spending time with loved ones, and partaking in all of those annual traditions, we love this special time of year! 

For most of us, it’s also the time of year when we see family and friends more than usual, including some distant out-of-town guests; We’re also able to have more days with the kids while they’re out on break, with more days off from work for us, as well! 
While it’s amazing to have so much time with loved ones, you might be looking for some ways to keep the younger kids busy during those 2 weeks off; You could be thinking of things to do with your college kids busy on their long break from school; And if you’re hosting some guests from out of town, you’re surely searching for ways to keep them busy and happy, too! 

We’ve listed a few ideas for things to do this holiday season and hope you’ll get to try a few out, along with stopping into our studio for a class or two! We’re looking forward to seeing you! Happy Holidays! 


— EXPLORE YOUR TOWN — 
Just because you live here, doesn’t mean you can’t still get a thrill out of everything our community has to offer. From sites to see, to shopping, entertainment, and more, there are plenty of things to do in Addison this time of year (and all year long). 

*WaterTower Theatre
One of the most widely praised regional theaters in the country, WaterTower produces five major shows each season at the Addison Conference and Theatre Centre. Productions run the gamut of genres, from dramas and comedies to classics and brand new works. Discount tickets are available for students and seniors. 

*American Airlines Center
From Dallas Mavericks and Dallas Stars home games to UFC bouts and Miley Cyrus concerts, there is always something exciting going down at the world-class arena in Victory Park, a short drive from Addison. 

*Vitruvian Park 
Check out the stunning lights display for the holiday season! Sparkling Lights, Dazzling Sights: Holiday Lights Spectacular, now through Jan. 1. 
Enjoy some delicious food at ‘Addison Ice House’, Shop, Sight-see, and take your dog to play at the park!  

*Village on The Parkway
Whether you’re looking for dining, shopping, or entertainment, Village on the Parkway is your best bet in Addison. National retailers and restaurant chains mix with local boutiques amid fountains, gazebos, and Mediterranean-inspired architecture for a welcoming spot to spend an afternoon.

*Addison Improv
Catch some of the country’s funniest comics and up-and-coming jokesters at Addison’s premier comedy club. You can get dinner and a show right here, with a burger joint-style menu served up every show night.


*And more! There’s always something fun to do in Addison! Check out some more ideas:

We’re fortunate enough to live right outside of Dallas, and explore all that the big city as to offer. Venture out and see what all it has to offer with family, friends, and visiting guests! 



— DO SOMETHING CREATIVE — 
Creative activities are relaxing and fun, and force you to bring out your inner-artist! 

Come in for a painting class at Pinot’s Palette! Whether you’re eager to spend time with the whole family, your 21+ college kids, your spouse, or out-of-town guests, Pinot’s Palette makes a great spot to do it! 

Check out the calendar to see what AMAZING classes we’re offering this month (and throughout January), and then sign up for the ones you want to attend! There’s new artwork, of-the-canvas creations, ‘Family Days’, kids’ classes, and even some black light parties (just to name a few things, coming up)!

Our classes make such a great place to spend time with loved ones because you’ll be together in a fun and creative environment, bonding over a shared experience. Making artwork together, along with some great memories, is always a good time and with a class at out studio, you’ll leave with your handmade creation to take home and cherish forever!

*These classes are great anytime of year, but they especially come in handy during the holidays for several reasons:
-They make a fun activity to do with loved ones during holiday breaks.
-You can make some paintings (and other DIY creations) and give them out as gifts to friends and family.
-You can take advantage of our GIFT CERTIFICATES and check a bunch of names off of your list with these easy-to-buy gifts that anyone will love. The gift of an experience is always a fabulous and thoughtful idea! 
Get some certificates for them so they can enjoy a painting class, and come on in with them so you can spend time together as part of their gift, as well! 
— For loved ones who live out of the area but would love to attend one of our classes, we have over 150 locations across the US, so you can get them a gift certificate to use at a location near them!

— KEEP UP WITH TRADITIONS (or making new ones)  — 

Bake, sing carols, make Christmas cards, and ride around, looking at lights! Whatever you used to do with your family growing up, or whatever your family traditions are now, be sure to add them into your schedule this season! 

We LOVE the idea of making an ornament together, each year, and hanging it on the tree every year, after! This tradition is great because you’ll be spending time with loved ones as you create something together and make memories, and then you get to relive the memories of making them, every year you take them out to hang up!

— CHECK OUT NEW SHOWS & MOVIES — 
From the amazing new Disney+, to ‘feel good’ Hallmark movies, and some excellent holiday releases like Frozen 2 and Little Women, this is some screen time we can get behind! 
There’s just something about curling up in your warm home in comfy clothes, spending time bonding over a shared show or movie with loved ones; On the other end of things, a fun night out with friends or family at the movies theaters is always fun for the holiday season!

*New Christmas Movies on Netflix:
*Disney+

Ok, so we know that since the release of Disney+, your social media feeds have been filled with major hype about the new streaming service; We have to say it’s actually as great as they say it is! If you haven’t made the jump to the new channel, why not keep it in mind as a great gift to get your family (or someone special on your gift list) this Christmas?! Otherwise, sign up now and relive all of your childhood favorites with your kids! Now, that’s magical! 



—GIVE BACK — 

This is a time of year when we’re so thankful for all that we have, but many people out there don’t have much at all. Why not pay it forward and give back to those in need? Volunteer at shelters, make small kits to hand out to the homeless with water, snacks, gloves, and more. Drop off canned goods at food drives, pack some bags of unwanted things and donate them to shelters or the homeless in your area. 

Set a good example for the kiddos and show them what it means to give back, not just this time of year, but always. 

Invite friends and their families to join in and help as well… The more people who are helping out, the more people you can help.



— REMEMBER LOVED ONES — 

We realize that not all holiday celebrations will be happy for everyone. This time of year is one of the worst for those of us who have suffered a loss, whether it happened just recently or years ago. Remember to count your blessings, lean on friends and family for support, and find some helpful ways to honor and remember the ones you lost to help bring you peace.
