Claytons Retreat - we are ready....



are you????


Well all the kits have been packed.... the teachers are pumped and ready to inspire you... are you ready?



If you have booked into tonight's Ladies Night Out you are in for a special treat, we have some gorgeous Make and Takes for you to create and a fun night planned for you all. All you need to bring tonight is yourself and some money if you would like extra drinks as we will have our very own bar running throughout the night.

Class Participant Info - For those booked into classes over the weekend please bring along with you to all classes your basic tool kits including adhesives, ink pads etc

Crop Participant Info - If you have booked into our Crops bring along your Ott Lights if you have one as the lighting is not what us crafters are used to (remember functions rooms are made to be cosy) Also as this is a licensed venue you cannot bring any food or drinks with your apart from a bag of lollies. You will be able to purchase drinks from the bar and Tea & Coffee will be provided. Another note to remember is as you will be cropping away from the store you will not have access to all of our class tools or access to the shop so you will have to plan your projects that you bring with you.
PS - Bring some coins with you so you can participate in our raffles and games.
