TCU Lambda Chi Woodsie

Hey y'all! SO you may have seen this if you follow me on Instagram (@bkraftydesigns) this past week I painted a cooler for one of my friends who was headed up to TCU for a date party her boyfriend's fraternity was having. It's called "Woodsie", and it's a camping weekend event they do somewhere in Texas. She had the cutest ideas for a cooler, and she asked me to paint one for her. Here's the final product:

Bianca had the best idea to do a "cooler divided" since she and her boyfriend go to different schools. I loved the idea, and I think it really turned out great. It's something different that I haven't done before, so I was all for it. PS. The TCU mascot is a challenge to paint, and that's putting it nicely.


Here's a side view of the cooler with the Lambda Chi flag on one side, a campfire setting with "Woodsie" painted in rope lettering, and the "Cooler Divided" design on top.


Getting really into the theme on this side; I really hope they had a campfire this weekend because it was freezing!

Another shot of the top of the cooler:


Lambda Chi flag:



 Fireball Whiskey side: "Roses are red, violets are blue, whiskey costs less, than a dinner for two."


For the back she wanted different bottles of alcohol, so I modge podged different bottles on top of a Gastby-esque background I painted. I love the black and gold, and I think it was a good contrast to the different colors of bottles.


I hope that if you stumbled across my page, something inspires you! It's always hard to think of different ideas for coolers that haven't been done before, and sometimes you just need to see something to get your creative juices flowing. Have a great week everyone; if you have any questions about cooler painting or anything else, feel free to leave a comment or shoot me an email.
