Crafter's Retreat

Crafter's Weekend Retreat
Friday, February 21 - Sunday, February 23, 2025

Enjoy a quick weekend getaway focused on what you love the most... crafting! Bring your own projects and supplies and spend the weekend in company of other crafters. This is the perfect opportunity to share crafting ideas, techniques, make new friends, and connections.
You might even learn and take a new interest in another form of crafting. All types of crafting are welcome!

With enough interest, we might even offer a sea glass crafting project!
Some attendees will be working on their Cricut machine, crocheting and other various crafts. If you want we'll do a Cricut machine tutorial. The Crafter's Weekend is about coming together in a homey environment with other crafters to talk and learn about other methods of crafting, all while continuing to work on new or old projects.
Conveniently located on the beach, you can enjoy daily beach walks and beautiful beach sunrises & sunsets. This time spent by the beach is a wonderland of opportunity to get some new inspiration and let your creativity flow. So, come disconnect from the busyness of everyday life and focus on you, doing what you love the most!
