hello crafty girls!
let me answer some questions about CRAFT WEEKEND for you.
1. what is the DATE of the next craft weekend?
there are SEVERAL dates in 2013!!!!
when you get the email it will tell you the date of the craft weekend
you have been chosen to attend.
you will have several months to arrange your travel details.
2. where will we be staying?
the Craft House sleeps 16 with 3 full baths.
it has work space for everyone, large kitchen, living room and porch
to enjoy during the nicer months.
the Craft House is located in Newton, Kansas.
3. what airport should i fly into?
we are close to the Wichita Mid Continent Airport.
we will provide the transportation to and from that airport for you!
airfare is not provided.
4. how much does it cost?
the price for the entire weekend is $575
everything is included....
YUMMY food
comfy lodging
fabulous crafts
trip to the barn to antique
transportation (to/from airport)
all you need to bring is YOU!
and your jammies and a toothbrush.
everything else will be taken care of.
doesn't that sound great????
to have someone else taking care of YOU for the weekend?!!
i can't wait to pamper you!
5. what will we do?
eat delish home cooked meals.
get creative with fun projects.
shop at the barn.
laugh
make new friends
stay up late
sleep in
have an AWESOME time!
6. what if i am not SUPER crafty?
that is no problem....we can teach you how to find your inner creative self
that you are looking for.
:)
we know she's in there.
we will teach you the skills you will need for each craft we make.
you will have helpers every step of the way.
7. can i bring my baby?
unfortunately since this a "get-away" craft weekend
the point is for most moms to GET AWAY and be able to really relax.
that means we are not allowing babies to come.
we would want YOU to be able to have some time away from the normal day-to-day
life that come with having children too.
8. can i come with a friend?
when you get an email saying YOU were chosen to come to craft weekend,
you can then decide if you want to buy ONE or more spots.
tell your friend to get on the wait list too.
you can double your chances.
9. can i get a refund if something changes?
There will be no refunds given after 30 days before the craft weekend
you are chosen to participate in.
Your ticket, however, is transferrable to another
attendee assuming we can sell the ticket.
We will contact the next person on the wait list for you
in the even that you will not be able attend.
IF the spot cannot be resold and the date is past 30 days prior....
the ticket is nonrefundable.
There will be no refund granted for circumstances considered an "act of God" such as but not limited to....sickness, emergency weather or natural disaster. If a situation like this arises the ticket holder will be extended an invitation to attend a craft weekend within 60 days. Upon accepting that invitation there will be no refunds given should the ticket holder need to cancel a second time.
10. what if i don't get in and i reeeeeally want to come?
we plan on having many craft weekends!
so get on the wait list by emailing
[email protected]
GOOD LUCK!
do you have any other questions that i did not address?
ask them in the comments and i will try to answer them.
I AM SO EXCITED ABOUT CRAFTING WITH YOU!!!
Craft Weekend was AWESOME! I'd do it again in a heartbeat!
If you ever get the chance, go! You will not regret it. Promise!

I have sent my e-mail and hope that I will be picked for one of the weekends. I do have a question, what days would it be? If we are flying in will it start Friday night and end Sunday night. Just wondering on flights since I am in Florida.
Thanks!!!

Is this more expensive than the last craft weekend, when you stayed at a bed and breakfast (is that what you did??)?? I SOOOO want to come, but I swear it was lower last time! Don't price me out! AHHHH! :)
When are the emails going out? Will there be time to make payments?
Thanks!
Posted by: Penny Smith | 10/27/2011 at 11:25 AM

Posted by: jacqui anderson | 11/16/2011 at 03:01 PM
I'm coming to craft weekend in early June... I sure hope we are making ruffle aprons. I love every.single.one in all the craft weekend pics. I am so excited I just can't wait!!
Posted by: Sharilyn | 04/22/2012 at 07:12 PM
i love that sonic is on the to do list, we don't have one in Massachusetts and I see awesome picks on everyone's blogs. It is a little nerve wracking for me - a mom of 4 - to let go and just get on a waiting list, not knowing WHAT weekend I would be picked to go. Trying to get the nerve to throw caution and planning to the wind...

Could you send me information regarding sponsoring craft weekend? Thanks!

Just wondering when the payment needs to be made? I would love to be put on the list but coming up with $475 is not really realistic for our small budget. Do you have any type of payment plan?
Posted by: Elizabeth | 05/09/2012 at 04:44 PM
I signed up a long time ago (end of 2011)and was wondering how long the waiting list was and do you get contacted 2-3 months in advance of the date?
Posted by: Ann | 05/09/2012 at 04:47 PM
I can't wait to come! Just saving up some money now, while the baby gets a bit bigger so I feel more comfortable leaving Daddy alone with the kids for an entire weekend! But I really, really can't wait to go!!!
Posted by: Melissa | 05/09/2012 at 08:44 PM
- I have been following your blog since your aaneprapce on Go 4 Pros blog and find you super inspiring! I have wanted to open my natural light studio for so long, and photogs like you have finally pushed me to do it! Since I'm starting my blog very soon, I know how important feedback is and just wanted to pop in and say I love your style!
Posted by: Auenwind | 05/27/2012 at 09:50 PM
i think it's safe to sign up. i never win anything. :) but this would totally rock. thanks for the opportunity. :)
Posted by: melissa erin | 06/07/2012 at 12:46 PM
This sounds and looks so great! I think that crafty side of me deserves some love...although, I am not so sure that crafty side of me is all that crafty. This would be a great opportunity to find out! Just looking at the photos is so inspiring!! Thank you for sharing your gift.
Posted by: TXHoneybee | 06/16/2012 at 08:52 AM
This sounds amazing. Tell me how you started?
I'm just about to start crafting and being creative with some ladies from church and this is inspiring!!
Posted by: Felicity | 08/10/2012 at 05:34 PM
I would so love to be put on the waiting list! I'm all excited just thinking about it.
Posted by: Shelly Clark | 08/20/2012 at 08:42 PM

What if I am picked but am unavailable that weekend? Does your name go back on the list?
Posted by: Angie M | 09/13/2012 at 01:40 PM
Is there a way to double check that our names are still entered? We signed up originally and I realize that the list is long - just wanted to double check. Thank you.
Posted by: Denise Wright and Lauren Sunderland | 09/13/2012 at 05:19 PM
Sounds like a fabulous time. Just found this... Add me to your list!

Merry Christmas!

I'm hoping I'm still on the list for dates in 2013
Posted by: Deana Boucher | 01/09/2013 at 02:06 PM
How much time do you have once you've been selected to put together airfare?
Posted by: Linda | 01/14/2013 at 05:19 PM
Oh this sounds so very fun.. my work cannot schedule around yours... I look forward to see more about your weekend getaways..
Posted by: deedee | 01/19/2013 at 10:40 AM
Please add me! It would be so much fun!!
Posted by: Alecia Loeffelholz | 02/13/2013 at 03:24 PM
Do you post lists of possible dates you could be chosen for? How do you get to be a helper? Hoping so much that I get to come some day! :) Lovely idea, inspiring and oh so needed in our crazy hectic days! Great job.
Posted by: Monica | 02/20/2013 at 05:35 AM
Do you happen to have an idea of how far out you are "booking"? The spontaneous side of me wants to e-mail you now, but the type-a part of me wants some idea of how long the wait is expected to be. :)

Posted by: Aimy | 03/11/2013 at 06:40 PM
I am on the list! But I want to put my mom on the list... my ultimate dream is getting picked for June. She bought a carousel horse at an online auction in Joplin, Missouri (the poor family had almost everything destroyed in the tornado-including the horses- which is is paying to have restored) and she has to go pick it up in late June. I volunteered to go, hoping it is falls on a weekend around then- Craft weekend is like winning the lottery!
Posted by: Whitney | 03/16/2013 at 09:55 PM
WOW!! This sounds so Amazing!! I want to go! I sent an email to be added to the waiting list. Such a neat idea!! :)
