A vintage weekend of your dreams...

(my fonts & point sizes are totally wonked out... so sorry!)

Session One:

A Charmed Life Bracelet
with Michelle Geller
1pm-4pm

$60

Using basic jewelry-making techniques, you will create a unique,

fun and personalized charm bracelet full of vintage items and found

objects. This bracelet is sure to be a conversation starter and will

be an attention getter every time you move your wrist and it makes

that glorious jingly jangly noise!

You will learn basic wire wrapping techniques as well as a few

tips and ideas to turn random, found objects into perfect charms.

The class kit is packed with everything you will
need to make your charm bracelet:

A chain, clasp, jump rings, headpins, vintage charms,

beads, and a collection of vintage and otherwise found objects

pre-punched and ready to be turned in to charms!
(OMgoodness! this is going to be such a great class!)

when you sign up for the class i will send you
a list of supplies that you will need to bring (nothing too crazy :)

An add on kit with charms will be available to purchase.
It includes a vintage small skeleton key, license fob,
and a soldered domino for $12.

Space is limited to 12

Session Two:

Me & My Shadow Box with Jill
5pm-8pm
$40

Inspired by our amazing friend, Ali,
Jill has designed a sweet shadow box
filled with little treasures & family memories...
Jill will provide a kit filled with gorgeous papers,
buttons, a gorgeous key
a vintage anagram letter representative of your last name
& other wonderful items...
seriously beautiful!

You will need to bring your own printers tray or shadow box–
is doesn’t matter how many slots or how big –

Then on Sunday you’ll get to hunt for other little items
that represent your family to put in other pockets of your shadow box.
(i loooove finding those cute little sweeties!)

Space is limited to 12

Grace us with your presence all afternoon & evening
as you stay for both sessions:

our good friend sarah has been at come play
from the beginning & we just love her...
last year she brought these adorable necklaces
for the creative boutique & they were a major hit!
we are soooo lucky that she agreed to come
teach us how to make them this year...
(don't worry, she will still have some to buy in the boutique
in case you only want to make one yourself :)

project two: banner bling

our own, miss jill, is going to show you how to make
this super-bling-tabulous banner...
the really sweet thing about this is that you
get to personalize it with any word you want
(there are enough tags in each kit for 7 letters, but you can
buy an extra kit if you need more)...
this banner will look so great any place you
need to add a little sparkle...
& who doesn't need a little sparkle?
:)

project three: daily bling
i'm going to get you going on next year
with a calendar that you can keep for yourself
or make as a gift...
& you can choose to use photos or
do some collage or a little of both!
we'll have some fun :)

you will get a kit with enough supplies to
make one of each project
& then we will all have more kits for you to purchase
so that you can make more for gifts & decorations...

each project takes approximately 45 minutes...
after you sign up through paypal i will email you
& find out which project you would like to take &
tell you what time your project is being taught...

tricia will be there with the always awesome
cocoa daisy kits & add ons...
& ali's going to stop by for a while, too!
so, the gang will all be there :)

we will also have our usual yummy treats
& the creative boutique will be open & sparkling like crazy!
so fun...

so price wise here's the scoop:
one project $25
two projects $50
all three projects $70
any which way you get
delicious treats
all day access to the creative boutique
& loads of fun with crafty friends!

you can sign up right up there in the upper
right hand corner (see it up there waving? :)
there are options for one, two or three projects

hope you can join us!
we are going to have such a fun day...
we'll have three projects to work on
& jingle all the way :)

let me know if you have any questions...
& be sure to have a wonderful day!
emily :)

a few people rocked the entire day from 9am to 9pm
(go amy & michelle!)
& other girlies made shorter appearances
but they were no less wonderful to play with :)
(hope your date was fun, kim:)

the boutique was full
& we had people stopping by to shop all day
(fun to see you, jess & lisa & andria! :)
which i love!

the day did not go as planned
& i'm so glad for that!
usually we put food out
& let people just eat when they want to
where they want to...
but there were only six of us left at dinner time
& so we all ate together at the table
in jill's cute kitchen...

(emily ruth cooks calzone:)

michelle & amy both wrote really great things about
our dinner together on their blogs
& so i will just say
that i am so thankful for a group of ladies
who just decided to let go
& share from their hearts...
difficult experiences to start & hilarious ones to end :)
i know it has something to do with scrapbooking...
we are used to expressing ourselves
outside of ourselves
(usually on cardstock, but you know...:)
it was just a really neat way to end the day
& for sure we will add eating dinner all together
to the schedule for next years summer crop
mark your calendar :)

all of the pictures here were swiped from michelle's blog
(thanks michelle!)

isn't this a cute one?

goodies...

the last four standing :)

(me, amy, jill & michelle)

there will be yummy treats
time to play, socialize or just hang out
& lots of fun!

we were going to include ali's new book
Sharing Your Story: Recording Life's Details with Mini Books
in the price of the class but

if you would like to buy a book at the session
(the price for a book is $20)
please let me know when you sign up

for the book so that you can see them in real life...
hello! inspiring!

field trip!
we will wake up before the sun
& head out to the coburg antique fair!

(we're talking 6am, girls, so drive through for your coffee & come out:)
for those who would like a bit more sleep
& are confident that their treasures will wait for them
come out whenever you want to!
i will have my cell phone & we will all find each other!
at around 10 we will meet in the food area
& have a brunchy (or second breakfast) show & tell!
it will be so fun to see what everyone found!
& it will give you that little time you need to
decide if you should go back for that adorable
vintage quilt that would be perfect in the guest room
(i say go for it!:)
after show & tell & nibbles of muffins (or whatever they have there)
you can decide if you want to continue on the hunt
or head home for a nap
with your car full of fabulous finds:)

not sure about your hunting abilities?
lucky for us we have someone
with mad antiquing skills:)
on saturday at each session
jill will give a little talk with tips & tricks for
finding treasures,
some good tools to bring with you
& ways to tell if you really want to spend your money on that little figurine
or if you should save it for the jar of buttons in
the booth next door:)
if you have seen her house
you know she is so good at picking unique & beautiful things...
it will be so great to have inside info from an expert thrifter!

the price for this playtime is $65

of $25 to hold your spot...

some great ephemera that jill has been preparing

& a super cool thing!
Making Memories has generously given us
a complete set of their passport collection
the collection that was the starting point for ali’s kit…
we will have a drawing & give the entire collection away this weekend!
everyone will be entered in the drawing one time
but if you were the reason that someone else attended the class
you will get another chance in the drawing!
i have all of the emails that i received from everyone
so if you mentioned someone else’s name
& they are coming too
you are entered in once twice or three times
(actually shelly, who friday night girls will get to play with, invited four people who are coming! plus she is attending
so she will have five chances to win!)
& even though we are coming up on the play time quick
there are still a few spots open for Saturday morning & Saturday afternoon
so let your friends know
& have them mention your name…
you could be rolling in the supplies very soon:)
(email me: emily@cocoadaisy.com)

hooray!
see you all soon...

we are excited for it to have a room of it's own this time!

& while you are playing with all of the crafty goodness
you will be working up quite an appetite right?
i certainly hope so
because we've got some great food for you...
friday night & saturday afternoon our sweet helpers
