Day Retreat at Lonestar Tavern, Mermaid Waters

WARNING LONG POST but LOTS OF PICS!!:  At the start of December I held a day retreat to give customers and team a day of uninterrupted time to complete UFOs (unfinished objects) and get ready for Christmas. 

The day is pretty unstructured but I provide goodies throughout the day and some make and takes that can be completed with the stamp set they receive.

Each lady had half a big round table to work on and this was their place setting.  A box of goodies!!

Plenty of inspiration with my displays of new products from the upcoming mini catalogue.

Everyone gets a lucky ticket for a raffle plus the option to buy more.  We raised $65 for Hummingbird House.

I bring along my inks and all the colours of A4 and embellishments for the ladies to use, along with all my Christmas stamp sets, dies and punches.

Do you want to see some of the projects the ladies worked on??

Throughout the day, I give the ladies pillow gifts.  I know we don't actually have pillows but you get the idea!!

I try to give useful and/or edible gifts!

These were Dimensionals dressed up with the Darling Donkeys stamp set which is FREE during SAB.

These are the mini Jingle Bells from the Christmas mini.

Our delightful circular tins were on the tables at the start of the day choc full of chocs to sustain the crafters!!  These were so much fun to make!

 And these were the make and takes the ladies completed, using their free stamp set.

It was a thoroughly relaxing and productive day with everyone getting lots ticked off their lists.  If you would like to be on my mailing list for the next one, drop me a line at wheatonanna@hotmail.com.

I also run regular classes throughout the year.

Thanks for stopping by!
