The moment we saw it, we knew we just couldn't wait until May to offer you a weekend retreat based on this fantastic NEW Mini Catalogue suite of product called "Storybook Moments".  Join crafting friends from far and wide for a fun creative weekend at our In-Person Crafting Retreat in Hammonds Plains, Nova Scotia - OR - Craft in the comfort of your home from anywhere in Canada with our At-Home Retreat Box Option. Our In-person event takes place over two days in the spacious and bright hall at First Baptist 1839 Hammonds Plains Road.  You can decide for yourself what fits your schedule best - if you can't come and stay over Friday night, that's OK - you can just do the full day Saturday.

What You'll Be Crafting With:

We have loads of crafting fun in store with colourful card projects that will delight you in so many ways. Each attendee will receive the Storybook Friends Bundle with beautiful picture frame dies, the gorgeous Storybook Moments Designer Series Paper with two sheets of colourful and fun punch-out images ready to go on your projects, the gorgeous soft Pink Scalloped Ribbon, elegant Antique Pearls and other goodies. All of these are yours to keep. You will also receive all the card bases, envelopes and loads of other coordinating project materials to help complete the TEN fabulous projects we have designed for you.

FRIDAY 3-8PM
After you load in and get your crafting space all set up, grab a hot or cold beverage and a treat from the refreshment table and join us for some light crafting fun with our popular Pick & Choose Crafting Session and social get-to-know-you activities. This will be followed up with our fabulous "LUCKY HAND" card game with lots of fantastic prizes to be won! We will have light refreshment Friday evening as well.

If you're making a get-away weekend of it, you may wish to stay overnight in a nearby hotel or guest house and come back in the morning refreshed and ready for a full fun day. (Hotel stay is not included in your event fee. We will include a list of reservation phone numbers and locations of the most convenient places in your confirmation email). 


SATURDAY 9AM - 8PM
We will be starting bright an early with hot beverages and the unveiling of the Main Retreat Crafting Package. We will have a full day with lots of fully prepared crafting projects for you to make.  We will have table gifts, special treats, door prizes and prize patrol for everyone throughout the day.  At-Home attendees will find table gifts, pre-selected door prizes and prize patrol in their boxes too.
