Just over a year ago today I was happily hosting my 2nd event Petticoats & Parasols in Savannah, GA.
I remember the event like it was yesterday.
Fabulous crafty talented ladies attended from all over to participate in an old Southern style themed event and weekend long festivities.
What better way to celebrate those precious memories by reliving them thru the beautiful pages of Where Women Create.
The feature is a pastel EXPLOSION!!!
Soft, sweet, frothy and dreamy!
It's a bit surreal to see my little slice of heaven graced in the pages of one of THE most inspiring magazines ever.
Im tickled beyond belief!!!
This feature would not have breathed life if it wasn't for Jo Packham.
Jo made this dream of having my event published come true!
Tiffany was the photographer extraodinaire!
Jen O'Connor could not have written the article more beautifully.
She captured the essence of the event 100%.
BRAVO Jen!
So happy you took this piece under your wing and put tons of tender loving care into making it the breathtaking feature that it is.
What MADE the event most successful was the special ladies who attended, and my lovely fabulous instructors Tiffany and Christine.
It makes me smile seeing my creative friends and their gorgeous projects.
The May issue is hitting the newsstands now so be sure to pick up a copy.
The whole issue is chalk full of page by page artist and their colorful creative spaces and fancies.
What a treat to see my dear friend Suzanne MacCrone also featured in the same issue.
Im switching gears this fall and hosting an entirely different themed event.
Once Upon A Dream will take place in the mountains of Asheville, NC.
It will be the perfect fall season for colored foliage and mild cool temps.
This event is very limited and almost sold out!
Im looking forward to seeing old faces and meeting new. More incredible fun memories are just waiting to be made.
Can't wait to share!
Thanks for stopping by!
Wishing you all happy and creative week!
Love,
Jenn

Congratulations Jen! I will run out at lunch to try to find it, can’t wait to see it and read what the fabulous Jen O’Connor wrote. Looking forward to Once Upon a Dream! Grace xoox
Congratulations Jen, It was a beautiful event, very deserving of being in a great magazine.
I hope I can get a copy here in Canada Jenn. What a treat. I know I saw most of your pics from that event. Stunning, and that’s why I’m spending a kazzillion dollars to come to ONCE UPON A DREAM… well maybe not that much, but close, LOL.
I know it will be worth every single penny *of Randy’s hard earned money* Oh I’m bad.
Can’t wait to be with such creative, talented ladies. And of course I get to hug you sweet Jenn.
Love You
Love Me

Congratulations gorgeous girl! It’s SO much better to see this on my computer rather than on my phone! You were right, I was squinting and trying to stretch out the photos and trying to read the article, hehehe!
You deserve every success and praise for your wonderful work and events!
P & P looked incredible. I wish I was there! I am so lucky that I will be there for OUAD though, and am so excited to see all your amazing plans come to fruition. I know you’re putting a LOT of work into this and the girls will absolutely go gaga over it!!!

But of course this event should be published! That way, everyone can virtually be a part of it. It was a beautiful art retreat hosted by a beautiful lady. I am glad that I was there for a bit of it.
Ciao bella,
Suzanne
Congratulations on a what looks like a fabulous feature Jenn! Can’t wait to read it!
Jenn, I saw “your” article a few days ago and was so excited!! It turned out beautifully, just like the event itself. I’m so glad I was able to take part in even just a small part of P&P–the vendor fair at Back in the Day was amazing and oh so memorable! Congratulations and Best Wishes for Asheville!! xo, Jen
So fun to read about this. Beautiful photos. Congrats!!
Jenn,
It’s a beautiful article and beautiful photos! I am going to have to see if Tiffany has this one and borrow it : ) Wishing you a beautiful Mother’s Day.
Hugs,
Kathy
