Florida Retreat

ORLANDO, FLORIDA
A weekend fit for a Clowdie Queen at The Castle Hotel

Join us for an amazing weekend away packed full of crafting, colouring, and fun! A great chance to escape the daily grind to get together with like minded crafters and create some new friends :) 
We will be crafting in a space fit for royalty (because you all deserve it!) for a destination weekend away. The Castle Hotel, from the Autograph collection by the Marriott, is located right in the hub of activity, being only a few minutes drive from Disneyworld, Seaworld, and Universal. A great place to extend your stay and make the most of your surroundings!

**PLEASE NOTE - This is not an annual event :) There will be no guarantees of a future USA retreat so make sure to jump in now while you can! I am travelling all the way from Australia and am so excited to meet you :)
