Heritage Harbour ladies tip glasses for memories

Peggy Kearns and friend Dani Stanton burst into laughter Jan. 13 as they sat at a table in Stoneybrook’s Rec Center painting spider mums onto wine glasses.

Kearns’ cheeks turn pink.

“I dipped my brush in my wine,” she says.

She and Stanton were two of about 30 Heritage Harbour women who gathered for a Sip N’ Create event, at which business owners Paulette Perruccio and her sister Debra Crowley, co-owners of Sip N’ Create, showed ladies how to create their own spider mum glassware as they snacked on appetizers and wine. The business offers painting on canvas, silk scarves and wine glasses in their storefront off University Parkway, as well as at group events off campus.
