Only thing to say now is, HAVE A WONDERFUL RETREAT GAYLE, you take ALL of us with you in our hearts. Can't wait to see what comes out of the retreat. God bless you, keep you safe and well.

    Oh wow!! I’ve always been in awe of your craft room. But oh my gosh!! I just want the things you’ve packed to take with you!! Lol. That purple ephemera box alone looks like SOOOOO much fun!! How do you get all of this stuff in your room and then to the room you’re crafting in? I’m picturing a humongous room, with tons of people, chatting all at the same time. Lots of laughter. Do they give you a cart? When I go anywhere, I pray my son is going with me to help carry stuff. Lol. Anyway!! Oh my gosh, I’m just so excited for you. Hurry back! Your craft room (and all your FANS) will miss you tremendously! So glad you made some videos ahead so we get our Gayle fix! Lol. Have fun and be safe!!

    You did a great job organizing to go. I go to my first retreat in August and I might use some of your ideas. We don’t have to bring our own bedding but everything else will be the same. Thank you for sharing. It really gave me some ideas. I have been going to retreats for about 15 years but you can use some great ideas.

    Great job of packing! I have that same Crop In Style bag! Because I have a dog at home, I can only go for a few hours to a neighboring town to craft, but haven't done that in quite a while. Of course then the packing is minimal and I concentrate on a single project. It's always fun to visit with like minded friends.

    😲 what could you possibly have forgotten? I couldn't remember half of that stuff if I had to. When I went to my retreat 2 years ago I brought lots of paper and glue and scissors and then tons of stuff I didn't need. But it was fun anyways. Hope you enjoy your trip can't wait to hear about it. 😘🐞🥰
