Be prepared for a crafty pampering weekend away from it all...in a secret garden!

Come and join us for 3 full days in the beautiful Adelaide Hills where we will be creating some amazing projects using either Prima Marketing, Mintay or Stamperia products. Your whole kit will be provided, and full instructions, including video tutorials and assistance will be offered throughout the 3 days.

This weekend is all about leaving the hustle and bustle behind to enjoy calm, positive time and serenity while you create. There will be no set agenda so you can craft and create your projects at your own pace. This way, you will have time to relax, learn and have fun while creating beautiful, designed projects in your own time.You can choose to make as much or as little as you want. Everything you need will be in your kits (including any paint or other other products) so you can finish at home if you wish. The actual products we will be using for our projects are to be announced at a later date and may not necessarily be garden themed - but the craft room will be deorated as such.

You will receive a Goody Bag with all the designed projects kits, embellishments and measurent instructions to create. And some other surprises. I will be there to help with any questions or techniques too!

There will also be video tutorials recorded on YouTube for you to access before, during and after the event.

Your fabulous weekend begins on Friday whatever time you can arrive.

Craft room opens at 10am. Morning tea will be served at 10.30am.

Your table will be ready waiting for you to unpack your tool kit plus all your goodies from your Goodie Bag. Everything you need will be in there. (I will list any extra essentuals needed closer to the date).

You can explore the grounds by taking a leisurely walk around, sit and relax with a cup of tea or get started on your projects. There will be samples on display so you can see what the completed project(s) will look like.

There will be internet access so you can also log into our private Facebook group or my YouTube videos to watch the tutorial videos.

Those who know me, know that I LOVE to spoil you and try to make your weekend as special as possible. There will be prizes, pillow gifts, games, and other sweet surprises for you throughout the weekend.

The craft room will be warm and comfortable, a bathroom on site, all day tea & coffee available.

Please feel free to bring along any other projects you wish to work on... I plan to not have as many projects to make as last year.

The food is delicious, the setting is beautiful, the accommodation lovely and the time away precious!
