do you like my creative titles?
monday and now…..tuesday!
wow.
in case there was confusion…i don't hate valentin'es day.
i am not against it.
it's just not for me.
maybe if i was lavished gifts and attention on that day….i would probably think it was cool.
but that has never happened (and i am not asking for it to) so i guess i think it's just another day.
and honestly….one more thing to put pressure on me to mess up…forget some detail or disappoint someone.
BUT i didn't. ( i don't think?)
i made the heart pizza.
annie was thrilled.
i have had some happy mail this week.
marnie from simply natural sent me a package of goodies.
a girl can never have too much lip balm.
thank you marnie.
me and my girls had fun opening it.
then there was THIS!
i was quite surprised with a BIG box from the ups man.
it was filled with soap from Out of Eden….love their soaps.
and then a lovely letter and this totally FUN big artsy collage frame.
i love it.
it's detailed and sweet…comeplete with africa and waffle and whatever and a camera!
it is really fabulous.
thank you.
and katie…i don't have a picture but i LOOOOOOOved the package from you too. :)
red polka dots? you know i am a happy girl.
***********************************************************************************************
how about i send YOU some happy mail??
these are goodies from the craft weekend i had at my house!
i made each of the girls a mini clipboard in yellow polka dot.
julie made everyone a messy flower in the sweetest gray dot fabric!
amy d. made the adorable ruffle pillow and rainbow flower necklace and she has made more and wanted to share!
i would love to send this to one of YOU.

joana - I think I would! Despite the fact that I live in France! but you see there is this tinny little hypotheses that we might move to Topica, Kansas! I really didn’t like the idea so much, it’s too far away, long journeys to get home as in Lisbon, Portugal blablabla but since I found out that you live near by I might consider! Just might!!! Not that I have a saying in the all process. That is with the big bosses of my husband company!!!

cassie o - i would totally come. though my crafting skills are definitely not on par with the likes of you. you’d have to be patient 🙂
Brooke - Umm, can you fit 827 people in your house? Because that is how many comments I see. For the record, I’ve been reading for years and years….so I feel like I am a loyal blog friend 🙂 And, YES, I told my friend that after I saw your pictures, it felt like a bunch of my friends hung out without me, and I’m jealous. Now, let’s be real…it’s not like we’re real ‘friends’….I’m not at blog status that you are…but enough rambling.
I would be there.
In Kansas.
Today. 🙂
Can’t wait for your store to fill up!!!
Annika - I think I would. But only if I could remain shy and quiet and people would not think it weird that I’m mostly craft and almost no talk and that my blog has only been going for about 15 posts…. Oh, and if I had the money for the flight…. :o)
Andrea T - I would save all my pennies in a jar!!!! I dont think i could stop smiling or talking I would be soo excited !
Sonya - I would love to come Meg but think it might be too far to travel from Australia! I love reading your blog and comparing the difference of living in a different country Thanks Sonya
asibtroy - I’d DRIVE to Kansas! I think sharing in the wonder of crafting, antiquing and friends that are women with families and blogs is just the thing an aspiring (crafty crafter, antique-er and just figuring out how to be a mom-mom) chick like me, needs!
Heather - Duh!Of course I would come!
haydee - I would so love to come. I even considered going to blue lily GoPro in San Diego just so i could meet you but that would be too weird considering i’m not good with my Canon at all. So sign me up for a craft weekend. That’s more up my alley!!!
Kat - I would, even though I am craft challenged and live across the other side of the world in Australia.
It would be very cool to sit, chat, eat, drink and laugh with you girls, as well as attempt to craft!

Crystal Swoverland - A craft weekend would be awesome! A chance to meet you and others like you sounds like an amazing time!

Rachael B - that would be so much fun! I love to craft and meet new people!

Amy Kate - I’m there…I’ve been dreaming of my own ever since I read your post on yours. Blessings!
Nicole M - I would love to come to a craft weekend in Kansas. I would be terrified and timid and second guessing, but I would get on that plane in my “big girl pants” and go. What do you have up your sleeve Meg?
Lisa - In an instant!
Kimmie Elks - Uh…yeah i would! i have an idea….why don’t we have one here, at my house in sunny Florida!!! i’m 10 min. from the beach! i don’t have my own blog but i read/stalk plenty of them 🙂

Mrs. Dunbar - I’d absolutely come. Maybe I’ll try and talk Julie into having one at her house, and you can come to that too.
danielle - um. yes. consider my plane ticket bought.
Stacia - Yes. I would. 🙂
Lori - I’m a new reader to your blog, who loves crafting, but doesn’t make much time for it. And, if you caught me on the right weekend and in the right mood, I would totally head north to KS for a crafting weekend.
Jenna - Yes! I am originally (and forever) a Kansas girl … I love antiquing (is that a word?) and I’m a rookie crafter, but you are an inspiration!!
Melanie - I think that sounds like fun! I would have my friend Kristi go on my behalf, though, as she is the crafty one 🙂 she makes annual Christmas ornaments, and sews, too. I admit it, crafts make me nervous! but I do so admire those who can, which is why i hang with people like Kristi and blog crush on people like you.
ronda beeman - Oh my lanta, what an awesome opportunity that would be! I think it would be so neat to learn new creative ideas from other talented people! Plus, to form friendships with other bloggers – how awesome! Love your blog!
Kodi - I found your blog because someone posted about the craft weekend! Id love to come! 😉
Megan - I would absolutely come!
jennyonthespot - Yes. Uh – YES.
Liz - I would absolutely attend a craft weekend in Kansas…I have so many crafts that I would love to have a WHOLE weekend to do that would be incredible. I would bring the all time favorite frosted rice crispy bars and beg for some sewing tip for the new-by!
I am planning on making the ruffle pillow after spring cleaning shirts become available!
midwestmom - wow, that would be fun!!! i would LOVE to!!
Ashley - Yes – I would come – by I think I would want to bring a friend – for my scaredy cat security blanket! :0)
erica - Most definitely! It looked like tons of fun. Good for you guys!
Dana @ Bungalow'56 - Your last get together looked like a wonderful time. If my air miles don’t run I would come : ) Hmmm, I wonder if a craft with toilet paper rolls would go over well?
Dana
Melissa Morrill - Yes. Plain and simple yes. OH MY GOSH YES!!!!
Robin - HECK YEAH I WOULD!!!! In a heartbeat!!!!
Amanda - oh for sure!!
Valerie @ Chateau A La Mode - Hmmm…that’s a good question. My first inclination is to say YES, then I remember that I am shy and I might be scared, but I would love to meet you because I think you are awesome.
Erin Whitney - Um…duh, I would LOVE to come! I like to think I’m crafty and I LOVE to make things, but we recently moved into a 1-bedroom apartment for our little family of 3. Not much room to craft…So, in short, yes. I’d love to. 🙂
Lana - I would! But I’d definitely be out-crafted…ya’ll are amazing! 🙂
Timi - YES, YES, YES, YES! I think a girls getaway craft weekend sounds amazing right now.

Kristin S - In a heartbeat!
I used your post on the crafting weekend in a seminar I gave at my ministry’s women’s conference as an example of how small the blog world can really be and how much I’d love a weekend like this!
My craft room is still in process so crafting has been halted for a full year! U. G. H.
Heather - um….ya!!!!
in a stinking heartbeat.
Lisa B - I would love to come to a craft weekend in Kansas and make a stop in Topeka to visit friends!!
Alicia - Would I come to a craft weekend at your house? Absolutely! I’d have to fly all the way there (14+ hours from here in Sydney I am imagining)but it would be totally worth it!
And if you could invite Julie… and Angie Smith too… and, and… my list could go on. Well then that would be totally perfect and I would float to the very top layer of blogland heaven 🙂

Sarah - ummm…YES! I am not even that crafty…but OH, I would TRY! Just to hang out with you and other cool peeps…SIGN ME UP!

Michelle - ummm. . . YES! Except I wouldn’t have to come far because I live in Wichita. BUT it is like my idea of a dream weekend 🙂
Love the goodies. Yellow polka dots- so cute!

That would be a blast and of course I would love to win the goodies you made!
Thanks.
rachel / cr.e.at.e - at least i’d feel like i already knew 1 person in the room [that would be you, of course]! weird, but true. HA! by the way – KS isn’t so far … i live 12 houses away [from the state line – not you.] 😉
Danielle - I would love to!
CASSIE - Yum yes yes and yes please I would soooo come!! I am a crafting queen!
stephanie @ providnece handmade - I’m totally going to steal your day post titles – I hate trying to think up good blog title posts. And YES. I would ride my bike to Kansas. 🙂 🙂
Karen Gerstenberger - Yes, because I love your blog, crafts (especially simple quilting for the hospital) and my BEST FRIEND moved to Kansas!
Suzanne D - Heck yes I would come to a craft weekend in Kansas! I love the big collage picture frame – awesome!
Rachel - Yes! I would definitely. And while I would be traveling from Oklahoma, my MIL lives in Kansas (close to you) so it would be a fun trip to make and my 4 kiddos would have childcare.
And sewing, I’m still learning but I’m very eager to learn. 😉
Molly - Would I come to craft weekend? Um, yes! Of course! I’m not super far, just up in Lawrence, but I LOVE to craft.
Erin - That would be so much fun!
Sarah - YES! If I could get off work, I would! I was telling hubby all about your craft weekend and how much fun it sounded like! I was totally jealous of the awesome antique shop pics too! It looks like an AMAZING one! Kasas and strangers from blogland….. sounds like a blast!
Alise M. - Definitely!!
Considering I’m a junior in High School I’m not sure how my mom would feel about that exactly, but I would love to!! 🙂
Julie - Yes. Absolutely, absolutely, absolutely!
Denise - This would be such a dream come true! An important thing to cross off my bucket list! Also, I could bring something to you that I have been wanting to ship you but it is BIG and heavy.
Please make your plan and let us come to see you, your amazing house and your lovely state! Oh and I love all the things in the give away! Thanks for your willingness to share with us.
Hollie - Yes! Please pick me!! It would be so much fun 😉
Amy Jo - Haha…YES, absolutely! 🙂
Carrie K - yes yes yes times a MILLION! seriously…not kidding!!! it would be pretty much close to perfect…
Margo - I would absolutely come and since I only live across town I think I could handle the commute!!
Katie - I’d love to come and craft with strangers – way less pressure than with those that you know 🙂
Chelsea - I would come! It would be quite a trip from central Texas!
mkpoggie - Oh my gosh, WOULD I? I would loooove that. I’m from beautiful, amazing Kansas and stuck in the desert and never get time to craft. (if you doubt my love for the sunflower state, I wear a silver Kansas-shaped necklace basically everyday) But, alas, tickets are expensive and I’m a preschool teacher, so time off is scarce. Sigh. A girl can dream…
LibraryGirl62 - Would love to, but it is a looooong way from Naples. FL 🙂
Lena K. - I actually thought about this when I saw your photos from your weekend because one of my best friends is one of your blog friends and I wondered if she would have gone if it came up. I don’t blog, but I LOVE reading all the goodness you girls put out there! Honestly, if you lived within driving distance I would love to craft, but I would feel so uncomfortable hopping on a plane and staying with someone I have never met in person. Maybe if I were a blogger, I’d feel the bond?
Andrea - Hi Meg!
First can I say that I am tickled pink to ‘kind of’ be featured on your blog ;). Katie ordered a whole bunch of my “Oh Snap! Mini Wallets” and told me one might be going to you if it had polka dots. Well good thing I LOVE polka dots … I think half of the ones I sent her had some form of polka dots.
And UHM … YES, I would love to come craft in Kansas. One because I already feel like I know you and several other crafters through their blogs and e-mails, etc. But I think that after the initial nervousness it would be nothing short of wonderful.
So name the when and where … I’m there ;). Maybe I can ride sketchy air with Julie ;).
Happy Day!! Enjoy your polka dots!!
Dianne - I read the post about your crafting weekend and thought it was the coolest idea. I was excited that a couple of ladies came from OK, and wondered what a girl would have to do to get an invite… get a blog? bake waffle some biscuits? bring a cute baby? Sounds like fun.
Laurie Schmotzer - Wow! That would be a dream! But, alas, I never win anything! Love your blog…makes me happy and inspires me!
Holly Cox - I absolutely would…in a heartbeat! I’ve never been to Kansas, but if I did, upon returning home, I would have to say “Holly, you’re not in Kansas anymore” bahahaha! 😀 Funnies aside, I absoutely would come to Kansas for a crafty weekend…especially since I have no crafty friends that live near me.
It’s just me.
Blogland is my only crafty circle!
Donna - Letmethinkaboutit YES!
Joni - I would love to! i wonder how dad would like watching all six children.
Adrienne - would love it!!!
e l l a - all expenses paid? (kidding) ;D Yes! xo
Terri Upton - i would love to come to kansas! i’m not shy but i’m also not creative. i could learn and just have fun. i never get happy mail so i would love to receive some. thanks.
Joy C - I’d go to a crafting weekend at the north pole if it meant meeting up with the talented ladies that were at your place!
Kate - I think you should get a paycheck from the Kansas department of tourism. I am LOVING all these people wanting to come here. 🙂
Mrs. Wonder - I never get my craft on, just look at blogs. I’d love to be surrounded by crafters!
Tegan M. - I totally would have come. 🙂 We’re doing mini-craft night at Heather’s (Cookie Mondays) this Friday. Although, we all kind of know each other, so it’s not quite the same.
Beth in Utah - Absolutely!
jennibell - Oh yes, I would come. . .yes, yes, yes!!! No kids??? That would just be the BEST. Crafting, food, friends, antiques. . .what could be a better way to spend a weekend?
Cassy - Wow! Someone is going to be one lucky, happy girl if that happens… maybe me! 🙂
shelby - oh my goodness, I would love to come to a craft weekend in Kansas…the opportunity to see a part of the country I have only flown over and to craft with other people who love what I love…I would definitely want to come!
JoLynn - That sounds like so much fun!! I’d especially love to come with a crafty friend to share the trip with! 🙂 Thanks for the giveaway.
Vicki - ooo! I would LOVE a crafty weekend like you had with the ladies. It all looked so scrumptious and FUN!!! But I wouldn’t be able to come right now because our cash-flow is nil and we’re using our air miles to go to my husband’s Grandma’s 95th birthday party in April. But you can have a crafty weekend here! :o) Feel like a trip to Portland?
Emily - OOooh, that would be so fun. I would be a little nervous about meeting new people, but so excited, too. Love those ruffles!
holly - Let’s see, would I come to Kansas for a craft weekend? YES. I’d be a little nervous about being with strangers, but I’d get over it. Especially if I got to try one of your famous margaritas 🙂

Christine - I would definilty come to a craft weekend! It seems like it would be so much fun!
Sandy - I don’t have a blog and I’m not entirely crafty, but I would love to meet YOU and your family AND WAFFLE!
k - I feel the same way about holidays……lots of ideas out there, but end of not doing much because it’s so over whelming and I may mess up!
thanks for your posts and inspiration!
Whitney S - That would be so much fun! I guess it would depend on when and how much flights are… but I am always jealous of your craft getaways/ stay ins. You have also made me really want to see KS… I look forward to your 4th of July post so I can see what your awesome little neighborhood did!
Shanna - HECK YEAH! That would be SOOOO fun!!!!!!!
OH for Exciting! TY! xox
Julie Schmidt - I’ll go anywhere! I always say “a weekend away, is a weekend away regardless of where it is”. But a crafting weekend away….I have never done that – would love it!
Libby - A craft weekend sounds fabulous. But I’d have to come with a disclaimer – I try hard to be super craft mom, but don’t have a crafty bone in my body. That said, I’m funny, I can cook and bake, I love to met new people and have no problem flying across the country to meet total strangers. Just no axe murderers allowed OK?
About Valentine’s day – I right there with you. I just don’t get it…forced love day? All the silly cards and candy? Though I do love an excuse to bake some sort of treat, but I don’t need a holiday to do that.
Can’t wait to see Wednesday’s creative title.
Libby
Rosemary Gustin - Ummm, yeah, totally! When and where? I’ll be there!
Jen - ABSOLUTELY Meg! You are such an inspiration to me and I feel like I already know you!
Ani W - I would love to! I have been missing my crafting time soooo much since my youngest was born: June. I doubt I could get away with it, but daydreaming about it is almost as good… 🙂
Anne-Marie P. - Yes I would come and I would bring my mother who reads your blog all the time!
s - I’m totally non crafty but I could pretend to be just so I could eat some of that yummy food you showed from the last craft weekend! I’d do dishes!!!
Tiffany - Great give away! Thanks 🙂 As far as coming to Kansas – from Michigan, not knowing anyone….. I would be nervous but excited. It would totally be fun having you host it! 🙂 Have a great day!
Rachel - I would go if I had the means to get there (I live in Canada). But, I admit, I’d be apprehensive about meeting so many new people. I’m a little shy. Would you make me feel comfortable? 🙂
Rebecca Frame - Yes…in a second! And hopefully I would leave with the ability to sew!
Rebecca
michele zakeri - Wahoo!!! I would come! What a fun opportunity!!!
Lauren - I just came across your blog and i LOVE it! So much fun stuff! Love to find a fellow Kansasan out there on the net too, who wouldn’t love a crafty weekend:)…
Miranda - I would love to come to a craft weekend! I love a weekend getaway, PLUS doing crafts!!! Doesn’t get any better!
Babbler - Ummmm, YES. With a capitol YES! What a nice idea. I’ve never spent time in Kansas and it looks beautiful. And I’d love some crafting tips.
Becky - I would totally come for a craft weekend with you! Because of your previous craft weekend posts, we did a craft weekend here in November and had a great time!
Juliann - sure Megan 🙂
Amy - What a cool giveaway! Thanks for sharing these awesome goodies.
I would love to come to Kansas for a craft weekend. But my husband says driving through Kansas is THE most boring trip ever. SO I’d have to fly. Hahaha!
merlin - I am a homebody, I am an introvert, I am not crafty….BUT how I would love to experience a weekend being crafty with you and finding out if you are what you seem in blogland.
jamie - Sounds like so much fun!!
Rachel Bosket - No doubt I’d love love love it!

Quinn - Heck yes I would come! Although I am young and probably wouldn’t fit in too well… I love to craft no matter what!
Lauren - Wow! A craft weekend would be amazing!! Love the idea!!
Andrea - I would so be there, and my husband would roll his eyes and think Im crazy for meeting another “Stranger” from the computer.
Becky J - I would LOVE…big time, to come play/craft/antique for a weekend….I live in PA….and then we could come play in my craft room/basement and eat lots of yummies and thrift shop/antique around here…Sisters in Christ 🙂 Becky
Sara - I already live in KS {which I LOVE} and you don’t seem like a stranger, even though we are. I would definitely come to a craft weekend!!
julie f. - sure, count me in! i’d have to have inspiration in the craftiness, though. i’m not so creative myself.
Janet Dreher - Meg,
That’s so funny you would ask this question.
After I read about the craft weekend on both this site and on Jess’ site, I thought, How does a person get invited to a week-
end like that?
So yes, I would love to come to a craft weekend.
Janet
Amy - I would totally come for a crafting weekend in Kansas. How fun would that be??
Tracie - It would be AMAZING! I would probably be nervous, but it would be so much fun to learn new things!
Amy L. Weber - Heck YEAH! I would totally come!! I’ve already attempted the flower necklace, and SO want to learn how to make the fabric flower. The ruffled pillow is on my TO-DO list for sure….
Jessica Johnson - um. yes, please. me and the 625 others. i’ll bring a tent?
Andrea - WOW! – Girl you certainly stacked up the comments on this one!
Who wouldn’t want to come and craft for a weekend sans kids and with other females? Have adult conversation???? What?!!!
Michelle - Oui! Bien Sur! 🙂
Christine - I would come to your craft weekend, no question about it! I feel like jumping up and down and saying “pick me, pick me.” ha. You are too cool. 🙂
Jenn - I would love to come. But would be completely terrified.
I am a bit socially awkward.
Doesn’t that make me sound like a wonderful house guest?
Holly - absolutely, Oh my goodness, what do I wear???
Vickie - I would totally do it! That would be my dream vacation.I don’t sew yet and would love to learn. I love to transform things. going to thrift stores and garage sales is my favorite. At the moment I am painting a kitchen table and chairs.I hope you decide to do it again. Have a great day.
mel - So I guess I never answered the question…YES, I would be honored to come for a craft weekend! I love doing crafts, specially if it was with all of you ladies! That would be awesome!
shiela - of course, i would! love the colors-as always.
merran tatum - are you kidding? that would be like a weekend of heaven here on earth. i would just die. i would LOVE LOVE LOVE to!
alaina - OMW!!!! You read my mind!! When i read through your post from the last time you had a creative weekend with blog friends, I must admit I felt a little tinge of jealousy, sighed, and said to myself….”How fun it would be to be one of the chosen! I want to go be in real life with all these wonderful people I have been stalking for so long!!!”. Okay, that stalking part, pretend you didn’t read that because then you would be afraid to pick me! So, all shame aside…pick me, pick me, pick me…although I suck and I don’t have a blog.
Holly - so, you are asking me this time? I was wondering when I would get an invite:)
mel - Um yeah! I would love love love love to receive this in the mail…I think I would have a heart attack!!! You girls are sooooo crafty! LOVE IT! I hope I win! Fingers are crossed <3
Jana - I would be there with bells on. I love your blog I look forward to it everyday! It is so bright and cheery, it’s my morning sunshine!
Oberheu.wordpress.com - I would love to come! And I don’t have far to go – I’m in Kansas too. In fact I’m heading to the antique shop this weekend on your recommendation! I’ll be in Wichita for work and decided to extend my stay. Looks like a great place to make an awesome find! Thanks for sharing!
Liz - Of course!!!! I love all the color you use, its always seems to come together in the happiest way!
Kameron - I live kinda far from Kansas, but would love to have a craft weekend! The thought of it makes me swoon!!!
Daniele Valois - ABSOLUTELY!!! In fact, I may never leave!!!
Vanessa {Bloom Right Here!} - How fun would that be?! Sign me up! My SIL (your used-to-be neighbor) has been wanting me to come decorate her house. I could just make one big trip out of it!
Kelley - I would TOTALLY come! I read the blog wishing I was a “blog super star” that could get invited!! That would just be the neatest weekend of my life!!
Erika - Well now, I live in Manhattan, KS, so the trip would be pretty easy. 🙂 I might be slightly intimidated, however. While I love to being creative, I don’t have much time to do it, so I’d probably feel out of my league. But it definitely sounds fun. I have 3-4 sewing projects I could work on!
taniawillis - holy guacamole!!! please, please, please tell me you aren’t kidding? what will it take for *me* to be *the one* you pick who gets to come!? i’ll wash the dog, or scrub your floors, or send you something with rainbows every single day during the month of your birthday. 🙂
you have NO idea how much i’ve been talking about your craft weekend–to anyone and everyone who will listen! give those goodies to someone else—-just make sure i’m on that invitee list. deal? (heheee. i’m so not kidding.) xoxo, tania (i’m totally not a crazy stalker woman. just totally in love with the inspiration you share!)
Melissa - Would I come???
YES!
I have friends all over the world, but not one in Kansas! I guess we will see if it is God’s divine intervention that we meet! I sure hope so! Melissa
Emily - Only if you teach me how to sew…I’m so intimidated to try on my own!
ashley - I would but….my craft would just have to be cooking. I swear I don’t have a crafty bone in my body unless it involves something culinary.
Michelle - i would LOVE to be a part of a weekend like that. i am inspired just by your ideas that you all did. sounds like such fun fellowship and girl time!
Regina - i would be all over a craft weekend w/ you & julie. sometimes i feel like such a stalker bouncing b/w you, julie, & elisa lou’s blogs. my favs! i can’t imagine creating, chatting, & spending time w/ ya’ll! i love your giveaway goodies. how fun! the necklace is on my “to do” list and i’ve added her blog to my list!
Jacci - totally. TOtally. toTAlly. I showed my husband photos of your craft weekend the other night – he’d be 100% behind it. It would be so good in so many ways 🙂
Moriah - Yes YES! Awesome,and I am loving that polka dot clipboard!
Karen - I would come, but I would come to get the crafty, I wouldn’t bring the crafty. aka, I have no craft skillz.
Tonya - DON’T HAVE TO ASK ME TWICE…..
Julie Weaver - Yes, I would absolutely come!
Michelle - OMGosh!!
Yes!!
Kristina Abel - I would just be beside myself. I need inspiration to be more creative and also to learn how to better balance my work/life time. I love my job, but when I come home I’m wiped out and I don’t even have kids yet! I currently have about 20 projects that I own supplies for and have never had the time to finish. The thing that was most inspiring to me was the comaraderie between the women and how everyone learned a bit more about themselves during that trip. Plus, my sewing machine would get more love if I could learn how to really use it!
Eat, craft and antique – that’s my ideal vacation! 🙂
Amber - I would come in a heartbeat!
Dawn - I would love it. My goal is to be more crafty but my friends aren’t having it.
Tracey @7294cottageway.blogspot - O.K. so I think I already left a comment but my computer shut down…so I think it got lost…SO I AM SOOOOO there! I will come and craft and cook and clean…it is so much easier to do at someone elses house! What an absolute blast that would be. Is this like a give away…I never win those things…EVER…but I would jump on a plane to hang with you…your hilarious…and I L.O.V.E. to craft! O.K. so let us all know like a.s.a.p. what the dealieo is!
Laura - I would TOTALLY be up for a crafting weekend!!!
lesley - Oh yes, I do believe I would come, but let’s be clear….you’re talking about crafting with YOU in KS, right? Cuz if it’s some creepy old lady you found in the cellar, I’ll have nothing to do with it. 🙂
Linda B - Yes, if I could convince my husband he could handle the kids on his own …
Jenny Logan - I am not too terribly crafty, but I would love to have a fun craft weekend!!
Jessica - I would love to, if I had a way of getting there. I used to live in Manhattan when I was a student at K-State (I know, you’re in Jayhawk town…how was that game yesterday 🙂 ?), so I’d love an excuse to go back!
katie m - I would REALLY REALLY want to…but I dont know if I could leave the family…plus I’ll have a newborn soon too. 🙂 Plus I would be really nervous. hehe
Jen - Ummm….YES! I mean YEEEEESSSSSSSSS!
Tracy - I most definately would! I’m thrifty, not so much crafty…more of a ‘wannabe’. A room full of strangers doesn’t scare me near as much as the sewing machine! 😉 I’m within minutes of you too!
Kristin - I would if I didn’t have to fly! Houston to Kansas can’t be that long of a drive, right? 😉
Tracey @7294cottageway.blogspot - I am soooo there…tell me when! I want to come craft…and laugh while listening to you! I will even cook…I will clean too…but I am a much better cooker than a cleaner…that makes it sound like I am not clean…no I just don’t love it like June Cleaver…you get it. YES I am there…tell me when! What an a.b.s.o.l.u.t.e baahhlast!
Gevay - I’d be nervous about meeting new people (I always am), but I would come!

ali - YES! YES! YES! I would most definitely travel to KS for a craft weekend!
Sarah Vaughn - wow, so super cute! I love your blog, love it!!!
Alana Gray @ Gray Matters - I was hoping you would ask. My husband calls you “the friend you’ve never met”, so it’s only fitting that we actually meet one day.
Stephanie Ginther - oh my goodness, oh my goodness… i found your blog right after you had that craft weekend and i was so jealous of it. KANSAS is my favorite place on face of the earth.. I was born and raised here and I go to KU now. If you had another weekend, I would be there in a heartbeat!
Vicki - Are you kidding me? Of course I’d love to head to Kansas to craft with you! (Especially if we can stop by that antique store, too!). In the mean time, I’d love to win this fabulous giveaway!!
Jennifer - I would love to say “in a heartbeat”! But, I’m not ready to leave my babies for that long yet, so I guess my answer is “In a heartbeat! in a few years….” :o)
Valerie Alexander - Oh yes, Yes, YES!!! It would be delightful. I just want to see your house, looks lovely from all your pictures. Oh, and meet you too! 🙂 I follow a lot of blogs, but you by far are my fave!!

Donna - I would LOVE to come to Kansas for a Craft Weekend!!! I even have a free plane ticket:) I don’t drink coffee but I would bring loads of Diet Coke and lost of money to spend at your awesome antique stores. I would love it!
siobhan - i would be there in a happy second:)
Valerie Page - I would LOVE to come to Kansas for a craft weekend. But I have no airfare money with having 3 girls. Would you ever consider coming to Vegas? I LOVE THE CLIPBOARD and PILLOW!!!!
Shannon Grund - Ummmm, SHYEAHHHHH. I would totally be there !!!
Courtney - i don’t know if i would come…it would be so scary to me! does that make me ineligible for the fun stuff?? 🙂
Rebecca L. - I LOVE crafting, and I would double LOVE to see your house in person–you and I have such similar taste in style. So, YES, if I could. And I LOVE LOVE LOVE polka dots. That clip bord is adorable.
Ashley - I think a craft weekend in Kansas would be the best thing ever!! I never get out and do anything FUN, or travel anywhere I have never been! School pretty much consumes my whole life, and I would LOVE to learn from a group of ladies what crafting is all about!! That would be a dream come true!
christi - i would totally do a craft weekend with bloggy people!! and annie’s glasses are fantastic!!
Mrs. Edberg - I would totally come to a craft weekend! But, only if I could bring my mom, she’s in desperate need of a min-vacation and I could use it as her college graduation gift!
Kim K. - I would love to come – can my dog Piper come too and play with Waffle? I think she has a little crush on him (or her??). Love the crafts!!
tracy b - oh, I would be so nervous I would talk myself out of it, and then regret it and then build up the courage to just do it already. I am working on being brave 🙂
love the giveaway!
Tracy

Emily - That would be so much fun!!!
Stacey F - I would LOVE to come, but there is one problem I’m not the most crafty person; however, my daughter is and she would so be in heaven …..already making some of the so cute crafts you showed!
Gina - Heck yes! That would be so fun!
Casey - I would love to! How odd would that feel though… I have had at least one child with me at all times for the last 11 years. Being childless for a girls weekend would be awesome!
Erin - WOW! That would be awesome!!! I would love to!
Cherish Stockdale - Heck ya I totally would! But I’d have to ask Julie what airline is sketchy air so I could get some cheap tickets out!! 😉 such fun things love them all! 🙂

Melissa - YES, YES, YES!!!!

G. - I think it would be a blast to come to a craft weekend! 🙂
Michelle Whitlow - Ya know, I was thinking when you posted about your craft weekend that I was *so* jealous! For some reason I just really haven’t found people who love to craft as much as I do {{sad face}}. I’m hoping with an upcoming big move that maybe I’ll find some girls that love it like I do!
Btw, your giveaway totally inspired me…I have an old shirt of my daughter’s that looks just like that pink polka dot background. And seeing that ruffle pillow makes me want to cut it up and make a cute pillow out of it 🙂
Christy - I want to come so badly! I live close too:)
Flower Patch Farmgirl - Well, I sure would WANT to go. I can tell you that.

Courtney Henson - Wow, so me and 476 other gals are totally meeting at your house! Do you think you could accommodate us all? I say yes a thousand times because I already know the power of blog friendships. I have made some of the dearest friends through blogging and many I get to be “real” friends with now too! We did a blogging retreat last March on the Washington coast. We had blog friends come from as far as Australia, the South, the Midwest, California…we were really representing! It was a sweet, beautiful, God filled weekend. It is really amazing how God can bring friendships out of this old internet thing! Loved seeing your craft weekend with all of your amazing blog friends!
jaye h. - oh yea…I’d be there! My daughter and I LOVE visiting your blog! You inspire us to be more creative. We talk about things we’ve seen on your blog as if we know you personally. My husband just rolls his eyes…he just doesn’t get it…but that’s okay!! 🙂

I live only an hour and a half SE of your Marion antique store! I THINK I could leave my littles (2,3, and 4) for an treat like that!
In His Peace,
Karrie Ann

Donna Bailey - I would LOVE a craft weekend! I make lots of fun things, I love to sew and papercrafts are also a favorite. But I really love to cook for a group. I would be happy to make great food for everyone!
Emma - Absolutely! A reason to get away for the weekend, craft, fellowship and fun! What more could a mom of a 19 month old ask for!
CAROL B - i love craftin’ but I would be much better suited with the girls I hang out with..so no I wouldn’t, but now if you said we would all go junkin’ then I’d be there in a heartbeat!! I love that big polka dot flower and thats what I really want!!
cristen - Are you kidding me!!!??? I would love to come to a craft weekend. After you posted your last one I thought…how can I do this in my house with friends near or far? I just loved the idea!

Renae - You wrote this post specifically for me right? Of course I would come! And i’d pay for my own gas. 🙂
Tere - I’d come. All the way from Seattle, WA. I’d bring a BIG suitcase full of craft goodies and big enough to bring some vintage finds home. I’d cook and clean.
Stephanie - I would probably freak out thinking no one would like me and say I would come but then not but then my husband would make me and I would love it and never want to go home.
Sarah - I think I would! It’d just have to fit in the budget. Provided stuff would help! 🙂
Robin - I would absolutely LOVE to if I could swing it during the timeframe it was planned! None of my girlfriends here are crafters so I’m all alone in my craftiness most of the time. So sad! 🙁
rebecca jordan - ABSOLUTELY! and i will be very excited and take lots of pictures and blog about it and maybe die with excitement (okay not die… thats a little intense.)
Gail - Yes, I live in Wichita and would love to come and craft with you for a weekend. I love how bright and cherry your blog is, a nice change from all the white and neutral which I adore as well.
Jenn - I think a craft weekend would be fun. It would have to be a learning weekend for me because I don’t know how to do any crafts. I grew up in Kansas and now I’m in Kansas City, so I wouldn’t be too far away.
Jen - YES YES YES… How awesome would a craft weekend at Meg’s be… Love all your goodies made from the last time… I think I commented on yours, Julie’s, and Ashley’s blog about the weekend one word… JEALOUS! Pure Goodness for sure!
Molly Pearce - Yes! But I would have to drive because I am horrfied of planes, ha ha! I love me some crafts! At church the youth girls want to have a “craft time with Molly”, ha ha! Have a fabulous day!!
~Molly P
Christy - YES! I think it would be a blast. I am pretty shy, but something tells me being there I wouldn’t be. 🙂 Crafting, antiquing & girl time, sign me up!
Angie - I don’t know if I would come to a craft weekend. I would want to, but I would be so nervous!
P.S. Those sunglasses are a-mazing!!
Kristin Hayne - Heck to the yeah!!! I try and do a couple girl trips a year to do crafty things and would LOVE to partake in a weekend like this!! Would probably even pay to do it!! 😉 That would be super nice and generous of you!! Thanks for the chance Meg!!
karen - I would love to come to KS for a craft weekend, but really just to meet you!
Tracy D. - Yes!
Sharla - Would LOVE to come to a craft weekend – I’m a short drive away and would SO be there! 🙂 Love that rainbow necklace. . . .
nicky - YES YES YES! my friend Jina and i were just talking about your craft weekend and how much we want to have one. it looked like such a fun respite for busy moms. and we are both sewing machine virgins so we loved to see that you showed other newbies the ropes!
Yolanda - I would, but I don’t think I am crafty enough to hang with all you talented ladies! Thanks for the giveaway though. 🙂
Leslie - OMG!!! How I would love to come to your girly craft weekend and make pins and necklaces and pillows and clipboards…oh my!!! What a fun time to be with such creative girls and laugh and craft and laugh and drink coffee and be silly!!! :}}}}}}
Krista - I would come if you didn’t live so far away…
(I LOVE this giveaway!)
rychelle - yes, yes, YES!
(until then, you’ve inspired me to host a craft weekend for some girlfriends here in vegas!)
Nicole Q. - I’d be like Kimberlee fearing the craft projects with such PRO crafters but I’m all over the shopping and girl time!! Love a weekend with you and some girls. I told Kimberlee the other day I need to come down for a week this summer with the kids and we can all three hook up.
tara - of course! i suck at sewing though. would there be non-sewing crafty stuff? 🙂
BriBedell - I live in Michigan, would love to come to Kansas and hang with some ladies and get my craft on! (Then I could visit my friend who moved to Kansas last year) Yay!! Pick me 🙂 Would there also be some antiquing invovled?? I would totally drive my mom van there just so I could bring a lot of stuff back <3 LOL
Andrea @ Big Creek Cottage - A craft weekend sounds like so much fun……would waffle be there???????? I {heart} waffle…..
Nicole Ackman - I would love to come, but we dont always get what we want. I am luck to be able to leave the house for a few hours to craft an that is when I am going down the street
Kelly - uh, OF COURSE!!!!!!!!!!!
Mindy Harris - meg,
i think it’s so neat that you get happy mail from your readers. my blog is much smaller than yours, but from time to time i will get a blessing in the mail that totally makes my week!! and a BIG FAT YES to the craft thing you are wanting to host. i am considering hosting my own and was going to ask you if you wanted to be a guest sewing expert. i have friends in CA and NYC who want to come….but if you host your own, then, well maybe we’ll all be there. would you have enough mattresses? i live in wichita so if you needed any of your crafting invitees to have another place to stay they could stay at my cool mid-century decorated home! 🙂 thank you for being an encourager in my life. a motivator to be confident in my abilities!
Lisa - I would want to but I don’t craft… like at all. I think God gave me other great qualities but creativity was not one of them. I wish I was more creative and crafty. 🙂
patti - In a heartbeat!!
Staci - WOW!!!!!! I soooo won’t win this…but I would sure love to 🙂 And YES YES YES!!!! I would LOVE to come and craft with you!!!!! I only live in Oklahoma….would be soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo awesome!!!!! Can you tell how excited I am 🙂 I have to tell you…I sewed….a duvet…well, more like a blanket this past weekend!!!! This is exciting because I don’t know how to thread a needle 🙂 How do people work with allll that fabric???!!! Okay, seriously….I would love a craft weekend in Kansas!!!! I make some mean monkey bread!!!!! Thanks for the giveaway Megan!!!
Melissa - I would love a weekend crafting with new friends! I don’t have a blog of my own (yet) but I have a couple of name ideas that I’m kicking around for my new-mom craft blog. This would be a great way to get started! 🙂
Mary P. - I don’t even want to think about it since I’m working on being content. I would so love it though. FYI, we had pizza last night too and that was it. Have a good day!
because love is a lifestyle - That would be so wonderful! I would love that! Pick me, please pick me, hee hee!
Erin Kirby - yes! i would just have to convince the husband to watch our newborn twins! ha!
K(is)Sing - Yes! That would be awesome! I’ve always wanted to go to Kansas. 🙂
Sabina - I would love love love to come for a craft weekend 🙂 but I live far far far away (Poland) so it might not be easy for me to just hop on a plane and come to you…but I sure love reading your blog : )
Dani - Heck Yeah! I would love that! I have a ton a crazy crafty ideas, but never have time to get them done. A weekend of meeting people and crafting…. ahhhh a dream come true!
Sonya - ABSO-FREAKIN-LUTELY! 🙂 Love your blog, love your crafts, love your personality!
Mandi Buccafusco - Yes! I would definitely want to come but since I’m not a “good” crafter, I would just watch and see all the cute things everyone else makes. I LOVE all those prizes! And I LOVE your blog.
Heidi - Of course! 🙂
Heather - I’m SO in. How much fun that would be!! We could watch hilarious movies and sew and drink coffee and scrapbook and go to that awesome antique place you took the bloggers to! It would be like a super-fun dream. 🙂

Jennifer Allred - Ummm, yes for sure! Just down the road from you in Wichita so it is totally do-able for me too! Really wish I could have crashed your last one 😉
And as a random aside, we have done many of your craft thursday ideas on any given day, but this summer we’re going for a special day just for crafts b/c we had so much fun over the past few months! Wouldn’t it be cool to have lots of mamas everywhere doing craft days on all different days with their kiddos?
OK, back to regularly scheduled commenting! I WOULD LOVE TO COME CRAFT WITH YOU!
ShelbyP - Oh, that would be fun! And I live withing driving distance. Craft weekend is a great idea!
megan - heck yes, i would come!! sounds like so much fun!
i would just have to figure out how to get there!
Kimberly - Oh yes I would!!! How much fun would that be, wow!!
Kate Cupps - Maybe I’m the only sane one here, but I think going all the way to Kansas (from AZ) to craft with a bunch of strangers is out of the question! I’m sure you’re all lovely ladies, but no… I just couldn’t do it. 🙂
Lisa - I thought you’d never ask!! Of course I would! I would probably have to do more of the cooking than the crafting because I’m sewing challenged! 🙂
jodi - In a heart beat!
Regina - I’d be there with bells on! 🙂
Alisa - I love to craft but kansas is kinda far from me (Utah) so don’t think I could make it.
I look forward to reading your blog everday. Thanks for sharing.

Alison - yay!! How fun would that be!!! and i would get to meet you!
Lelia - How fun! I would come!! I would need major help w/the crafts — I’m not too crafty! 😮 I love seeing all of the pretties that you all create though! =D
jennie sanders - oh my gosh , yes!!! That would be a dream. I have been reading and enjoying your blog for about a year now. You are so creative and inspirational. Would love to get together and craft!
Dana D@BoysMyJoys - ummmm, HECK YEAH!
I’d load up the suburban with my handy, dandy sewing machine, some Dove chocolate, and hit every Sonic between SC and Kansas in route!
Jessica - I would be nervous & EXCITED to be blessed with the presence of fellow crafters & the amazing energy that come with them…I love your honesty Meg, makes me feel NORMAL that I am not the only mom with the thoughts you have! Granted I only have 2 children, with a 3rd on the way…I don’t know how you keep the cool with 5! I would be racing to the airport if I had the opportunity!
Kristi - I am in Canada- so it is a bit far, but man, would it be fun!
Blaire - I would LOVE to come to a craft weekend in KS! I wonder how long it would take me to get there from TX. Hmmmm. There is nothing better than making something with you hands while spending time with wonderful women!
Kirsten J - I *think* I would come…I’m kind of a chicken about traveling….but a craft weekend would be a good carrot at the end of the stick for me.
Debbie - Yes, yes, yes. It would give me TIME to craft.
Shelly foster - Oh my goodness gracious ! YES, YES, YEEEEESSSSSS ! I would so be there …in a flash !
Jody - I would actually come too – I cannot imagine getting away to JUST DO CRAFTS!!! how utterly awesome. I am home full time with four boys. I squeeze in craft time whenever I can!!!
Love your blog. Now…how far away is Kansas from WI?? :)))
Laura - yeah!! I need a ruffle pillow in my life!
Alisa - I would totally come!!!! I live in Kansas too so it wouldn’t be too far, but all the more do-able, right? Plus, I love to craft so it’s a match made in heaven 🙂
Allie E. - Be there or be square!
Holly - Um, in a heartbeat! (even better if I could bring my sister – we could road trip it in my MINI Cooper Convertible!)
erin - would feel like i had won the lottery if i went crafting in kansas!!
Alice H - I definitely would come to Kansas for a craft weekend! I need a break 🙂
Hayley - Of course! I’d love to come.
Megan - I would. I would be terrified, but I would…..maybe.
amanda - please, please, please can I have it? love this cute stuff!
Amanda
Hannah - i most definitely would. 🙂
steph - oh gosh… it feels like the school yard all over again! ha ha ha! pick ME, pick ME, PICK ME!!!!!!!!
it’s so funny you post about this b/c the whole time i was reading your post about the crafting weekend, i was like, “man… is this weird but i SO want to be there too!!! i don’t know these women but i know i’d have a blast!” and now, here we are! so in a short answer, YES i’d love to come for a craft weekend. i would totally be there in a heartbeat. give me a chance… i promise i’ll bring YOU some goodies!!!! 🙂
elz - I would love to come to a Craft Weekend with you. Kansas is a little far away, but maybe a roadtrip?!
Tiffany Kraght - oh my goodness, i saw your post about your crafty blogger weekend and instantly called my sister in law and said we have to do that!!!
i also bookmarked the necklace tuturial so i could make one for myself!
~tiff
Shelby - YES! It’d be a long drive but that’d be SO cool!
Sophie - I would TOTALLY come to a craft weekend in Kansas.
But I doubt it’d ever be possible for me. I live in London so it’s a LONG way way from home… And probably very expensive to get there 🙁
Amy James - When I read about your weekend I remember thinking how brave everyone was to come together. At that time I asked myself if I would be brave enough to go if ever asked. It made me nervous just thinking about it. I am working so hard to get out of my box and I answered myself with a definitive “YES”. And yes, I do talk to myself 🙂 Love you, Love your blog!
Heather @ Cookie Mondays - I’m thinking you didn’t get many ‘no’s. I would love to come back. With no baby distractions.
Danielle H. - Oh, I would so totally come to a craft weekend!!! So many peeps in my life just don’t understand the joy that is crafting and the joy that is reading blogs of “strangers”!!! Since watching The Wizard of Oz since I was a little girl I’ve always wanted to visit Kansas…..
Myriah Mae - I would absolutely LOVE to come to a craft weekend at your house!!!
Geli - How did you make the yellow polka dot clipboard? For some reason
I love clipboards….
Sami - Wow, you’re going to have a really packed house at this craft weekend!! And I do love me some friendly crafting…
shannan - Can I come tomorrow???? How about I host a craft weekend here: http://www.thehouseinsc.com and you can be the guest of honor on the west coast? I know you have some girls out this way! But Kansas would be awesome!
Kerri - I couldn’t leave my boys to come – which is why I need the package! haha 🙂 I think when my little one is 5 I will feel better about traveling without them. There will be time for me again one day, these days are too precious and fleeting for me to miss. In the mean time, I love watching all of the fun things you ladies do! I think you should totally do another weekend!
Amber G - I would love to come to a craft weekend, you all had too much fun.
debbie - My bags are already packed for the craft weekend! Even thought I can be shy, I would have no fears that everyone would be nice and friendly, because the women who read and comment on your blog are an awesome bunch!
kat - Yes, yes, a thousand times, YES! I mean, um, sure, I’d come to a craft weekend at your house… I get super excited just thinking about it!!! Fun company, fun crafts, yummy food, tons of laughter, count me in!!! Please. 😀
robyn - definitely! i went to my first craft weekend in november, and it was heavenly!!!
Karina - I would have to get a passport but I’d love to come. The only part of the USA I’ve been to is Seattle. How far is it to Kansas from here, hmmmmmmmm…according to google, I could drive there in about 26 hours. Which I might do if I could bring my husband and three kids! We have relatives in Ohio, so we could make it into something of a pilgrimage…How many days/weeks can we stay??? (you are probably already regretting this idea, huh?)
april - I would come in a <3 beat!!! It would rock and be so much fun! Those goodies you girls made were so cute and make for a great giveaway!
xoxo
Jessi - YES.
Stacy Heffington - Absolutely! Oh yeah! Who wouldn’t be up for a girls trip and crafts!!!
Nichole - yes, yes I would, because I wouldn’t have to fly because Nebraska is close by 🙂
Sara W - Yes, I think it sounds fabulous!
Laura - What a lovely giveaway!
I thoroughly enjoyed checking out the blogs you linked when you posted about your craft weekend. Such special ladies, every one of them. I looked at the pictures and read through the story of your weekend together and felt like I was missing from that picture. 🙂 I craft all the time. I have a hard time just sitting without having my hands occupied making something. I’ve made tons of cabochon magnets lately, and you can usually find me making cards, scrapbooking, making Alphamom’s snow globe soaps, or just about anything.
Thanks for the opportunity for one of us to enjoy the craft weekend’s labors!
katie - i loooove this giveaway!!! i would totally do a craft weekend, how fun to meet new people!
Melissa - YES!
Katey Deasy - Girls craft weekend anywhere sounds awesome! I’d do breakfast!
Amanda Jo - I would TOTALLY craft with a bunch of strangers in Kansas!!! It would be SO much fun!!!
Tracy - Ummmm…is there really 2 answers to that question? Yes! Yes! yes! (i guess that is 3 answers). I will even start saving my pennies for air fare right now he!he! (cuz it just might take awhile).
Shannon - If I was super crafty and creative like you I would but I am not so I would spare you from being bored with me 😉
I would go if I could just come and hang out..maybe I would cook and bake for you guys that would be fun!
Megan - Totally! Nobody crafty around here. Love to meet new people!
Shivaun - Ummmmm….. a resounding YES!!! I like you 🙂
I just googled it, and I’m about 10 hours away. I think I’ve got Delta miles somewhere, too… I’ve got a chubby 3 month old you could smooch on! I’d better get packing! 😉
Elizabeth Walters - UMMMMM YES! An added bonus is that my sister lives in KS (and I live way down in Texas)and you know what we would be even MORE awesome?? IF she came too! We LOVE crafting!!!
stephany - ABSOLUTELY! I love Kansas…used to drive all the way across it from Denver to Kansas City, MO to visit my aunts, uncles and grandparents every summer! ;^)
I would love to attend a craft weekend with amazing crafty ladies! I would like to do one here in Oregon, so to see first hand how you do it would be awesome!
Staci B - I would absolutely go to a craft weekend in KS! So much fun to be with great ladies creating!
Amanda - Be there in a heartbeat-lol. How long of a drive is it from central Illinois? 😉
kim g - I would love a craft weekend. What a great idea! Would love to have one with all my friends. Love your blog….thanks for always sharing!
Suzy - I think that would be a blast! It would be therapeutic to have a not only a ‘girls weekend’ but a ‘crafting retreat’ thrown in the mix?! What crazy heaven have I died and gone to?!?!?!:) Thats a big yes from a gal out in Utah, who doesn’t blog, but loves to craft, and loves good friends! Thanks
Camm Taylor - Craft weekend! Would love it! I do have to admit that I am not as ‘crafty’ as you girls…I do love to pretend! I just made my 2nd pom pom necklace like yours. I have gotten tons of compliments! My girls and I love to do the art projects that you do with your family!
Denise Sandberg - Of course I would come! I love doing crafts! and my girls are OLD enough to be without MOM for a weekend!
Jen - I would totally come…and I would be weirded out about it after agreeing to it, and then when I got there I would be like, why was I weirded out?!! It would be amazing, and I would love it!
ashley jensen - I would TOTALLY come to a craft weekend! I would totally be freaking out before hand since I am pretty shy but would get over that! I am only 4 hours away so I could definitley drive!
Janelle - I would LOVE that! Although, tickets from the Virgin Islands may be a little pricey to Kansas. And being the only athiest in the group may make me feel a little out of place! But I think it would still be a blast, I love to craft and am stuck doing craft “kits”. I love the creativity of actually making something not from a kit!
ashlee - i would love to come to a crafting weekend so fun!!!
Katelyn - If I wasn’t a poor college student on the east coast i would be there with bells on! Looks like y’all had amazing fun at your last craft weekend. Meg, love your blog, it’s a daily read!
Tammy - absolutely. no better way to make new friends then to be thrown together in a situation and make the best of it! And I’ve never been to Kansas, so it’d be an exciting adventure!
Elena - I might be one of your youngest attendees, but it would be so awesome to be surrounded by other craft-lovers for a whole weekend!
Nikki - Dude!! I would totally come! Kansas is only one state away from Colorado, after all 🙂 Whoever would say no to that is nuts! Ha!
Cheers 🙂
JennR - I was just telling my husband about this LAST night- how I really admired how you did this, and how much I love your blog and hope that our home is like yours once we have kids. I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to come. I just got an antique letterpress that I’m a little afraid of, and would love to have a group of creative women to figure it out with!
Mindy Murray - I so would come to a craft weekend …. I’m trying to be more outgoing ….. and I LOVE to craft, sew, scrapbook, learn something new, anything to just be creative and get a little messy!
Rachel - YES! I’m one of those people that can walk into a room/house full of strangers and strike up a conversation. But, beware…I am a morning person! 😉
Jes - I’m not crafty, I’m a wanna be, but would absolutely show up, hoping to learn a crafty thing or two!
erin j - Yes, please. I don’t do a whole lot of crafting but would love to learn and I miss Kansas so much it hurts (we’re currently living in Chicago…so take lots of pictures of storms if you get the chance).
Sarah Hansen - Totally! I live in Nebraska!
Beth - I love these crafty things, I made a necklace this weekend. The pillow is next on my list. Would love win these to see them in person (to see how well I made mine!)
Jenny - LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your blog! It makes me happy! A craft weekend – WOW – amazing fun! Crafting, shopping, hanging out with lovely people…doesn’t get any better. Thanks for sharing your life with us!
Lindsay - Most definitely. I’d love some inspiration and fellowship with crafty girls! :
julie - silly question … of course we all would!!! Fun, Fun !!!
Sharen M - Oh Goodness, I’d be there. I’ve been daydreaming of being crafty! It would be an honor to be around other experienced crafters! All it takes is one step to make a start!
Heather - Meg – I would totally come! I live in Kansas, just a few short hours away from you! But here’s the thing – I am NOT crafty! I dream of being crafty. I have crafty thoughts, but then I am paralyzed to actually do anything with those thoughts. I am clean. I like to cook. I bake well. If I’m going to do a “craft” it usually consists of something we can eat when we’re done! LOL Dual purpose craftiness! I love it!
Andrea - I totally would come to a craft weekend with complete strangers! I bet it would be fun, and very much needed!
Jaima - YES, I totally would! I’ve sort of stalked your blog for quiet some time. My husband’s grandmother lives in Kansas and we were there a few weeks ago. We live in Nashville.
And thanks for the awesome giveaway!
Karen - I want the answer to be YES but I’m sure you want me to be honest so the answer would probably be no. I’m painfully shy around new people and the thought of going somewhere by myself to meet a bunch of new people makes my heart beat crazy fast. In fact, when I read that you had done a craft weekend with people you didn’t know before, my heart was beating crazy fast for you.
Love your blog…it’s the only blog I MUST read everyday!!
Laura - Love the prize!! Love the idea of a craft weekend! Not the most crafty YET… but I can learn, right?! Totally awesome! =)
jenn - I would be there in a heartbeat! It would be so much fun! I love the flower pin… too cute 🙂
Andrea Boone - Meg!
I would love love love to come to a craft weekend with you..
I promise not to be so scared of you thinking I was a freaky deaky stocker that I don’t talk much.. like when you took my kid’s pictures!!Which I LOVE still.. can’t wait until spring for more.
So, Yes I would be there in a heartbeat!!
You Rock and inspire me everyday!!!
so YESSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!
dawn - for sure!
Holly - I would love to come to a craft weekend! I was just lamenting to my husband that I have wonderful friends, but no one likes to do any crafts! and I am not happy if I am not doing something!
Gale - I’d be there in a heartbeat – since I only live about two hours away! 🙂 I read your blog first every morning to remind me there are colorful, cool, fun people close to me….and have used your Mom’s margarita recipe from the craft weekend post quite often since I read it! 🙂 What fun it would be… sign me up!! (cute, cute goodies, too – can’t wait for the shop to open!) Also, BIG congrats on being chosen for Matthew Mead’s mag!!! You’ll be a perfect fit! 🙂
Shawna - I would love to come, but my kids keep me busy right now.
Becca - Oh yes I would LOVE to go to a craft weekend with all of you talented ladies 🙂 That would be so fun. I do have a 3 year old and 9 month old at home though.. so working that out would be.. interesting 🙂
Kelsey - Of course I would attend a craft weekend in KS, but your going to need a big house with 300 of us there.
Jeannette - I would LOVE to come crafting with you and other bloggers (or non bloggers). I don’t have a blog YET, I am still mustering up the courage :). I’m in Florida but I’d be on a plane in a minute….count me in!!!!!
Shiloh Walter - I am a wannabe crafter…..All these ideas, but never finding the time to follow through. I would love a craft weekend, and I’m only a hop, skip, and a jump away!
www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1668443056 - I would love it!!! I would have the best time, i need it so badly!!
amy Mumaw - Oh yes, I need to learn how to craft!!!
Amy Mumaw
Kimberly - totally!! except i cannot craft.
i love that necklace!!! i must have it. amy, do you sell them?
Jenn - I would if I could. I love meeting new people.
kate - Would love to but even more think it would be fun if we organized a bunch going on during the same weekend at different places around the country….can I host Southern California?!?!?
Jennifer - I so would! You guys looked like you had such a great creative time. I find that I am the most creative when surrounded by other caring creative people.
Molly - YES! some of my favorite bloggers were at your last one! If they were there again (and I am not saying they would have to be to get me to come) but if they and you (of course) were I would be like a 7 year old at a Hannah Montana concert!!! and my husband would laugh at me for my complete excitment! But even with all my excitment I would probably still need to bring a friend along:)
alamama - totally! what great fun it would be! i’d even wash my floor for that one! heehee!
Heidi - YES YES YES! I know Amy J. through her co-worker Nancy. We were both so happy and jealous that she was getting to come to craft weekend!
Stefanie Arnold - heck yes I would come! I would come a non-crafty, clueless lady and leave, one quite inspired, newly creative genius… just like you all 🙂 I’m getting my first sewing machine soon, so I plan on the year 2011 holding many creative moments in it for me 🙂
Tonya - Meg, there are over 200 women who want to come to your craft weekend (there will be many more as the day progresses, I’m sure!), yet somehow I feel there is a chance I could win/get chosen/finagle my way in. HOW DO YOU DO IT??? How do you make each one of us think we could be bffs if ONLY we lived in your town. It’s true. AND I was just lamenting the fact that I don’t have a blog so I couldn’t be invited to your bloggy craft party. Also true. SO what would I do if I came to craft weekend in Kansas? Drool, stare, creep, and snoop, all while trying to appear cool, composed, and worth your time. And I would craft my heart out.
Ashley Crenshaw - I would LOVE to come back home to Kansas and go for a craft weekend!! But.. we’d have to go treasure hunting too! 😉
stephanieT - yes, i would TOTALLY be there…. 🙂
Tracy - I’m not as talented as you, but I would definately come just to meet you and other fun filled girlies 🙂
christy - That would be amazing!!
Heidi Jo the Artist - It looked like you ladies had such a fun time with your craft weekend, how could I refuse!?! I especially loved the embroidery art!
I would have to bring a newborn though, we just had our third child, a son on January 28th!! I’m not a good blogger though, better at reading them. 😉
Sabrina at Tutus and Chaos - You bet I would! I’m another sewing newbie you’d have to help out though.
Cassie Allen - Be in the company of women where we can laugh and share and create and escape? It sounds like a small island of awesomeness. Yep. I would love to be there!
lifethroughthislens.blogspot.com
Jamie - YESSS!!! Because going to Kansas would mean I would be going home (I live in Colorado)! I miss Kansas people!!
Jen W. - Oh I’d be in. Scared, way out of my comfort zone, but exhilirated because that’s what living is! Taking risks and getting out there – 2 things I’ve avoided at all costs before but am learning to kind of like…
PS- You’ve made me a lover of rainbows. 🙂
Katie - Of course I would! Be there in a heartbeat!
Kelly - yes, yes I would. If I could meet my *husband* online first and then in person, why not friends? And it would maybe/possibly help me learn to sew! I have gotten the bug to learn. How cool of you to be so open to doing something fun, out of the box and creative! Kelly
p.s. You have a lot of readers from Australia! Fun.
Meredith - I’m in…name the date! 😉
Lindsey - Hmm. I’ll be in Manhattan, KS in April. Sounds fun but I’m not the most crafty person in the world. I do like to get crafty with my camera though!
allie - i would love to come and craft! you need to open an etsy shop!
Nikki from Austin - for sure…and i’ll bring wine from the texas hill country to add to the enjoyment of the weekend. 🙂
Vera - Oh my gosh YES!! I have been obsessed with the idea of a craft weekend because of you and Jess, and so I decided just last week that I am renting a B&B here in Arkansas for some of my friends and I for my birthday and having one of my own, and I am SO SOOO excited. But my best best friend lives in Kansas City and I really need (want!!) to visit her this year too, so I would totally plan a trip up there for some crafting fun AND visiting her. Love all your goodies 🙂
tobi d - Totally!
Jill - TOTALLY! I would come in a heartbeat! (I would need to bring my super adorable baby boy, though) 🙂 I reposted your craft weekend post to my facebook page and hinted to my friends that we must do something like that for my birthday. I live in a house of little boys and never get enough craft time. Ever.
Thank you for the super cute giveaway!
Tracey - In a heartbeat!!
Liz @ Perfect Chaos - ABSOLUTELY!!! I loved reading your blog post and looking at the photos of your craft weekend you hosted, the entire thinking how can I get in on that?!?!
Mary-Beth at Short, Sweet Season - I would SO come! Yay for craft weekends!
Verna - I would definitely come to a craft weekend. Ok, allowing for the ability to find a babysitter or have my hubby off work enough to do it. 🙂
Beth - Oh you know it!
That would be awesome….love all those goodies! I need some teachers to help me with my sewing machine I bought a year ago and still have not taught myself how to sew.
Valerie - Yes! What fun! One idea would be to let the winner to a craft weekend bring a friend – may make going to a new place easier(Pioneer Woman does this for her giveaways, which is what made me think of it). I am inspired by your crafts all the time. That fabric in your title has me drooling…and has sent me back to the quilt shop despite my hiatus from having 3 small children …thanks for the giveaway opportunity!
Beth - I want, I want! I have been eyeing the fabric flowers since your blog weekend post! Pick me. And yes, I would so come to a blogland weekend of fun!
Anna Marie - If everything panned out for me I would be there in a heartbeat. However, I am due with our 2nd in 3 months and a newborn might make that a little difficult. But I would SO wish I was there!
Beth - Yes, yes I would. And I’d love every minute of it! Thanks for asking.
Laura - I wouldn’t be opposed, but I am not very crafty, so I’d help cook, clean up, and take photos. I’d watch very closely at all the creativity. I’m so inspired by all of you crafty women!
Stephanie - I’d be there with bells on!Thanks for sharing the love!
april's craft nest - craft weekend? a weekend dedicated to craft? that sounds like the best time ever! except i would be very nervous and my husband would make me even more nervous! “you’re meeting people you’ve never met, except on-line….in another state….and you have to get on a plane to get there…?” even with all that though…that sounds fun! 😉
courtney - oh my goodness! how fun! welp, i would definitely consider coming. when i looked at your pictures from craft weekend, i thought i would totally fit in with you guys. the reason i’m not saying YES immediately is because #1. i am sooo scared to fly and i’ve never flown by myself. #2. i’m so not crafty. BUT you had some non-crafty friends and i know you’d welcome me with open arms – crafy or not! :o) oh, and did i mention i totally love that prize of rainbowy, bright goodness? i would be so excited to receieve that in the mail!
courtney
xoxo
Melissa - OH! I absolutely would come! When I read your post I was thinking, man I wish I had freinds that would do something like that- so awesome! (not that my friends aren’t awesome…just a different kind of awesome!) Have a great Tuesday!
Jenny Joy - I live in Kansas, and LOVE the idea of a crafty weekend. That’s the kind of stuff that feeds the soul, me thinks. It would be a tiny bit scary at first (crafting with strangers), but I’m pretty sure that anyone in attendance wouldn’t be a stranger for long. 🙂
Sarah - I would definitely come. And my in laws live in Kansas so they could watch my girls!
Laurie - Absolutely. That’s my kind of weekend!
cindy - I would love to come to meet you and your friends and craft with you guys! Sounds amazing! Your blog has inspired me in so many ways! Thank you so much. I don’t know how you make friends from blogging as you and others have mentioned because I just feel like a blog stalker most of the time. Events like this would make it possible without it being weird you know? 🙂
Cindy
ingrid - crafting weekend in kansas….sign me up (please)!
Jessica M - I would love to come. I might just need a little pep talk 🙂
Naomi - Gosh, I would love to attend a craft weekend, but I’m a student in the UK so I think the airfare to Kansas would be a little too much for me!
Naomi x
Amy - Are you kidding….we’d overtake you town!!!!!
Anessa - I would Love, Love, Love to come!!! 🙂 and I would LOVE all those goodies too.
Kirsten - But of course!!! This would be a dream come true… Creative fun people, getting away from the everyday mess and responsibility of life, and being able to enjoy adult conversation! Bring it on, baby!
colleen - Yes, I would come…In fact, when i saw that one of the girls who came was from Alabama (like me!) i thought how nice it would be to have traveled with her! Maybe as a stow away in her suitcase! Have been toying with writing a blog and would LOVE to be around those amazing women (and the hundreds more that are out there writing wow-worthy blogs).
Jenn Shock - I would be there in a heartbeat! Just give me ample time to look for good airfare! I’d love to meet you and see a new state I’ve never been to.
Sarah - Are you kidding??? Yes I would come! Tulsa isnt that far from KC…
Janae - Sounds fun. I’m an introvert, but love to craft.
LeAnne Cotton - I love to craft – I would come if I could. Sounds fun!!
Routhie - Absolutely! What a treat!

Monica Green - Yes! I would love going on a craft weekend, for sure!
lauren - I would absolutely come to a craft weekend with you! For realz!!! My friend and I are trying to plan one of our own! SO much fun to be had!
Ariel - I absolutely would…but I would first have to find a magic wand and make my Mother appear to watch my kids. Hubby is in the Air Force and they don’t give days off…bummer.
Everything you do makes me smile, and makes me feel like a long lost little sister. I think you are the coolest!
CathyC - Oh Man, what are my chances when there are dozens and dozens of lovely women to choose from? OF COURSE I would go to a craft weekend in Kansas with strangers! why on earth not? To meet you (you are my hero that sent me the right way). And since you are picking them, then I know I would learn a lot more than how to craft from each and every one of them.
Have a great day Meg!
Caterina (Cathy)
Natalie - I would love to do a craft weekend with you! I love crafty stuff, but don’t have anything to craft with.
taralee - yes, i totally would! i live in sw missouri, so it wouldn’t be far!
Katherine - I live in Alabama, but I would do everything I could to be there!
Lynette - Definitely, how fun! That is a fabulous giveaway!
Carrie - How sweet of you to share! And I think that I will be in the majority when I say it would be awesome for you to have another craft weekend. I think all your followers were a little jealous we couldn’t be at the first one. Thanks for the sweet giveaway!
Jennifer - Are you kidding me?! Do you even have to ask? I would freak out if I was able to visit you for a craft weekend…fingers crossed.
alyssa - umm, yes please.
Morgan G. - Would totally come love crafting and looks like you guys got some great shopping out there in KS!!!!!

sarah c - Absolutely! It would be a lot of fun!! You should do it.. and invite me ok?! 😉
stevie - Ummm….YES! I would definetly come for a craft weekend.
Becca Fort - Of course I’d come to kansas for the weekend! I love to travel and love meeting new people even more so I’m there. Plus, I have a killer sewing machine and some cool fabric but less than stellar skills on the machine. so it would be a great learning experience too.
Penny - I would be there in a heartbeat. It looks like my kind of weekend.
Rebecca - HECK YES!!! I TOTALLY WOULD!!!
Janine - You know from reading your blog, and a bunch of others I feel like I already know you guys. Which is so weird because you haven’t a clue who I am. I might seriously consider a trip out to Kansas to craft! Oh and that necklace is adorable.
Tania K - I would love to. The only problem I not as crafty as you 🙁
Meggan D. - I LOVE the idea of a craft weekend. And I’d like to think I’d go. But the truth is I need to take a vacay with my husband before I dash off on my own 😉 I really loved seeing your photos, though. The ALL inspire me… not just the craft weekend ones. Thanks for putting yourself out there. I enjoy reading your blog!! (And we share a name…. spelled differently, but still!)
Jessica B. - Craft weekend….uh, yeah! That would be incredible. Love all the cute gifts. I made the flower necklaces in mini size for my three girls for Valentine’s Day. They loved them 🙂
heather - I’d love to craft with you Kansas girls! I feel like I know you already anyway. 🙂 I actually made one of the flower necklaces myself…nd made some more of the “puffs” into headbands and clips for my daughter’s hair. Loved the idea!
katie phillips - Ummmm, DUH!! I think that would be awesome. Enough drooling over all these Blogs I love so much! To be able to meet and spend time with women so full of creativity and passion for what they do, would be amazing!!
Edie Steinmann - You better believe it!! Except I would feel so young and dumb and untalented. But I could get over it!
Laura in LA - Oh I would love to! Although since I am not particularly crafty, I would probably ooh and ahh at what everyone else was doing.
Mimi - ohmygoodness!…of course I would. I would LOOOOVE to!
Carla Grace, Middleburg, Florida - Oh yeah…you betcha baby! I would love to have a crafty weekend with gals that share the same likeness to glue, fabric and ruffles…heck, anything crafty is always fun!!
Carla Graves - I’d like to think that I would (because I would love to), but I probably wouldn’t. 🙁 How sad is that? I live in WA state and there’s work and the kids, and . . . and . . . and . . . I would be like the one girl you mentioned who brought a friend because she was nervous! But I’d love to meet you and be crafty with you!
🙂
melissa - did i tell you about my dream? yes. it’s {probably} a bit creepy that i dreamed of you…the night after i read about your fabulous crafty weekend with the girls i dreamed that you invited me over for a craft weekend too! it was so much fun! i promise i’m not creepy or strange…i apparently need to get out more. :o)
i would love, love, love to win this happy mail. i truly need more of it!
Cory - Ok 1st of all – sweet little giveaway!! 2nd – A craft weekend would be my DREAM!!
Christy - heck yeah! I’d be honored to come to a craft weekend with you guys!
Rachel - YES! That would be so fun! (If we’re still here!!)
Erin - Could I please? A girl’s weekend free to do crafts without blowing noses, changing diapers, or sports on the TV? Sounds like a dream come true!
Jodi - I would surely love to come to KS for a craft weekend! I must get over my fear of flying first… or just take an extra day or two to drive… :o)
kristine - heck yeah i’d be there!
Krista W. - I would sooo come!! I LOVE what you create and would love the chance to peek around the “little” antique store you guys went to!! 🙂
LOVE that clipboard…would love a tutorial too!!!
~K
Kathi - I would! I feel like I know you, even if I don’t really.
Christine Ishmael - I’m only a couple states away…I’d do it in a heartbeat even though everyone in my fam would think I was nuts going off to craft with strangers! Your last weekend looked like so much fun!
Gina - I think it would be totally fabulous to meet you and craft and shop and eat and sleep (a little) all at your wonderfully colorful and crafty home!!! I seriously think you should plan MULTIPLE craft weekends, maybe 1/quarter? That is if you wanted to kick out hubby and kiddos that often! Have you seen how many people said YES?????
Gina
from Texas
Pipp - That would be so much fun – just tell me when – lets do it!
Love that collage frame – so fun!
Debby - I’d love to…need to actually start crafting again to get the ball rolling. It’s amazing when you have to stop for a while how hard it can be to get going again.
Ashley - Meg! I would totally come to a craft weekend! My soul NEEDS a craft weekend!
Plus, seeing your house is way up there on my must do list! Although I practically feel like I’ve been in it, from looking at all your photos! I love going in other peoples houses and seeing how they decorate and checking out the architecture. Sometimes, on Sundays my hubby and I pretend we’re looking for a new house just to go in some of the beautiful open houses for sale! It’s fun to dream!;)
elisa - hope your house is big enough
Rachel J - I think that I would die and go to heaven! A weekend at your lovely house with you and waffle….I mean seriously! I must admit….I’m not the most craftiest of girls, but have really been wanting to unleash my inner creative beast ( a friendly beast of course!). Either way, I will continue to read your blog and love the pics! Have a blessed day dear Meg! 🙂
Misty D. - I’m not very crafty, but admire and like gals who are. It would be fun to come and learn something new!
Kate - I would in a HEARTBEAT! Well, I would if I could – I might have a baby strapped to me – and I er, um, don’t really know how to work a sewing machine – but I would adore a craft weekend. Sometimes, a weekend with the girls (even girls you just met) is very refreshing.
Jackie Bennett - YES!! I am due with our second at the end of May and I need any excuse to take a vacation and have girl time before then 🙂
Jen N. - I’d be totally nervous, but yes..that would be awesome!
Leadia@TheBreeder'sDigest - In a heartbeat! I live in the Chicago burbs and always think…I sure would like to have Meg over 😉
Sarah - I would totally come and I have a newborn baby girl that would have to come with me to “help” with the crafting. 🙂
Marie - I would totally come to a craft weekend in KS!! The past 4 1/2 years I lived in Wichita and I think you and I have some mutual friends or know friends of friends, ha! We now live in Ohio but I love ANY excuse to come back to Kansas! We miss it so!
seb - I would come back to Kansas if I could craft with you!
tiffaniboren - Yes, yes..I would love to come to a craft party at your house! I live in Texas but I suppose I could board a plane and get there but hey it would be an adventure. Pick me!
Katy - I would so love to come…..but I’m due with #4 in April! Sounds like you have plenty of people for craft weekend…maybe you’ll have one later in the year.
ajdked - I am crafting impaired, but I’m willing to try even at the risk of humiliation!
Amy - Heck yeah, I would come to a craft weekend in Kansas. My husband might freak out over the idea of sending me off to the clutches of strange women (he has a tendency to be, um, overprotective like that) but I would do it in a heartbeat.
Tiffany - I live way too far, but I would luv to come. Perhaps you could draw up an agenda for us Northern’s and we could follow along. P.S. Send me the loot 🙂
Katie - You couldn’t keep me away from a craft weekend in Kansas! How much fun!
Valerie - Um, a big ol’ fat HECK YES!!!!!
I could easily drive up from T-Town, just a hop skip and a jump from Oklahoma to Kansas. I love me some crafty time, and new friends? Who doesn’t love that?!
jeannett - um, yes, yes, yes! crafts, no kids, rad chicks. where do i sign?
Kylie - yes!!! I can’t sew..I WANT to, but I guess I need a machine to practice on…..
Kyle - i was totally jealous of your craft weekend. i already live in kansas and i’d love to be there.
Kate - Crafting and meeting new blogland friends? COUNT ME IN!!
missy king - well. yeah. i would love nothing MORE than to fly across the beautiful country to join you. i have only ever driven THRU kansas, never stopped to visit. 🙂 My husband chuckled at the idea, knowing full well, that that would mean he would be in charge of the 4 kids we have, ages 2-7, and expecting the 5th (yippee) in july. would love.love.love. me some trendy new stuff. your blog is adorable. loving it, as i just found it a little bit ago. have a smiley day! missy.
Stephanie C. - I totally would….if money and time weren’t obstacles anyway!
Kristi - Make room for me!!! :o)
Kendra - I am always up for that kind of thing. Meeting new friends, hearing people’s stories, having something tangible to take home with all of the intangible sounds super fun! Also, the last time I left for a weekend, my sweet husband did all of the laundry. I can’t lose.
melissa rice - I would love to come. a weekend away with even friends you haven’t meant yet sounds fun and exhilerating!!!
Amy - I would come if I could bring my blogging friend Katie (who loves your blog). She would CRY if I called and said, “Hey! We’re going to Kansas! To make crafts with MEG!” 🙂
Julie - I would love to come to KS and craft with strangers!
jenni - I would TOTALLY come to a craft weekend in KS! I love that you are gathering people from the blogosphere to have face to face interactions. It would be AMAZING to be a part of that.
Karen - I would absolutely come — from NYC! Even though you don’t know me (and this is only my second comment ever), I read your blog daily and I feel like I know you. I’ve already copied your rainbow cake, made your spinach artichoke dip for Christmas Eve to rave reviews, and even taken my family on a road trip to California inspired by your trip.
If you ever take your family to NYC, you have a “friend” here who will be happy to show you around. (My two boys are the same ages as your two oldest.)
Lisa - i’d probably have a panic attack, but i would so love to come!!
sarajane - i would love it! although i can’t sew and am not very crafty..is this a problem? 🙂
Niki - Yes, yes, yes!!! Especially since I am already in Kansas! 🙂 AND especially if we could do some antique shopping!! Love that! It would be fun to hang with girlies from blogland!
DANETT - All this stuff is so cute, colorful, and totally me! I am just starting to craft. It runs in my family and I am learning and loving it. I just bought my first sewing maching this year and made my daugther super cute pillows for her bed. I am working on much more and would love a craft weekend if it would fit in my school schedule! Thanks!
brianna - i would love a craft weekend, in kansas nonetheless… i have family in kansas i haven’t seen in a long time! maybe one day life will give me time to make a trip up there… that would be so freaking awesome!! but for now i must keep my feet in Texas soil… why do the two have to be so far apart!!
Brandi - A whole weekend of crafting wonderfulness? Count me in!
tasha roe - hells yah!
am I allowed to say that? lol
i could bring a craft project and some yummy treats from The Lou!!
Carrie - That would be amazing!!! I’d come in a heartbeat. It always looks like you girls have so much fun!
Tracey Garcia - I would LOVE to come to a craft weekend. How far is KS from TX?
Ash - I would consider it, but not sure I would commit…But I would like to try to make some of the things you made!
Happygirl02 - Yes! I can’t really sew and I’m crafty when someone else provides the ideas but, YES! It would be so much fun!
jenny - You have no idea how many times I have had this exact thought-how I would get on a plane, head your way and explain why I truly am your new BFF! I have thought how crazy you’d think I’d be b/c I’m slightly obsessed with your blog, your photos, your creations and how you might very well send me home early b/c you’d think I’d lost it! It would be uhhh-mazing!
Amber - EEKkkk just what I need!!! A weekend with others who “get” me!!!
Kayla - Umm, yeah! You made it seem like it was fun…laid back…doable….stress free….and with lots of giggles…oh and food….the food looked great!
Sarah M - I would love to come to a craft weekend – I have family nearby. However I would be seriously nervous meeting new people.
Maine Mummy - As long as my 17 month could come along for the ride – absolutely!
Cathy - Oh How fun would this be???? I would love this!!!!
Stephanie - I would be there in a hearbeat..but have to brin my friend along because we both totally stalk your site and call each other and talk about our friend Meg…you know, like we actually KNOW you 🙂
Jen - stanger strangers? I’m not sure. But blog friends?!?! um, heck yes! I would be there in an instant and then…maybe not leave. WAIT! I shouldn’t have said that…now I’ll never get to go to a KS craft weekend!
Emily Zimmerman - YES, YES, YES!!!!!!!
ashley - that would be the best weekend!
Micah - LOL THAT would be SO fun! I don’t know if I could actually work it out though…. I mean, I’d hafta rent a wife for my family while I’m away because it seems they might cease to exist without me (eye roll) and probably rob a bank in order to buy a plane ticket (which MIGHT get me in a teeeeny bit of trouble but HEY, it would be my very FIRST plane ride EVER!…might be worth the risk). It could happen! So yeah, I’d come!
Jessica - O M Gosh!! I would TOTALLY be there!!
traci in virginia - Yep, if I could arrange childcare I would be there!
Vanessa at He Gives Hope - i’m there!
Trish - fun giveaway! I love the color of that pillow 🙂
craft weekend… yes please 🙂
Amber - That would be amaaaaaaazing!!! I’m completely NOT the best crafter, but who better to surround yourself with than a bunch of gals who know their stuff!!!
Beth - No doubt, I would come. Travel might be an issue, but I would bite the bullet and just do it!
Biz - I tend to clam up around new people, but I think crafting for a whole weekend would def. get me out of my shell! So I’d love to come crafting!
Shannon - I LOVE LOVE LOVE those goodies!!!! 😀 And yes if I could have the opportunity to go to Kansas for a whole weekend with YOU and CRAFTS! Oh MY!!!! That would be HEAVEN!!!!! And I would JUMP at the opportunity! 😀
Maria - In a heartbeat. I would so be there. Love crafty girly getaways!
keely - i’m not crafty at all and my answer is still YES!!!
Eli - I would come in a heartbeat!
Sonia - OMG!! A ticket would be like $300!!! I would so be there!! I would be nervous, but we could drink lots of “Mom’s Margarita’s” cause they are my new favorite drink! And we could make all kinds of things with rainbows on them!! I wanna come!!!!!
Cameron Davis - I would love to come some day…even though I am just beginning to touch in to my “crafty” side I feel like I would learn a lot and have a really fun time!!
Nicole - How fun would that be?! Even though I’m not crafty, I AM good at talking, laughing, & eating. And I’m great at receiving cute crafts…so some of the advanced crafters could share their awesomeness.
Katy Frame - OMG! I would DIE if I could come to your house and craft! Yes yes yes! 🙂
shawnette - I would love to come to a craft weekend with you IF i could get off work, someone paid for my air fare, i had a sitter for my kids and husband,oh lets see what else…
Angela B. - I would love to. Probably would be a little surreal…
Karen - I would completely love to come and meet you for a craft weekend. But I would not fit in at all, haha! I am a seventeen year old high school student…I am not a mother…I do not know how to use a sewing machine. Nontheless I love everything about your blog! I’ve been reading faithfully for years. Is this weird?
misty c - um, YES!!! I would be so giddy…I have not had a girlie getaway in forEvEr!!!
love your inspo…
Sarah @ Handbags*N*Pigtails - I was so envious of all you girls getting together that weekend. If there were any way I could get there I think it would make my month. Every girl needs to get away and get her craft on with other women every once in awhile.
Id LOVE to win these goodies:)
Tanya - If I wasn’t so far away I would say yes! I’ve become a little braver as I’ve become older, got married and had babies so being around strangers doesn’t terrify me as much. I loved looking at your pictures of your craft weekend and it made me think I need some friends like that 🙂
Lindsay - I would totally love to, but I’m a few states away & would probably freak a little at knowing no one personallly. 🙂
juliana whisman - I live in Kansas and when I saw your post about the weekend, I thought, ‘man, I want to be invited to something like that!’ What an amazing, fun, and gorgeous honor that would be!!
Courtney - Since I am in Kansas everyday, I would totally come!
Amy Harris - A chance to hang out with amazing women who have a heart for God and I get to craft?? My bag is packed! What time should I be there? 🙂
Carol S. - Lovely prizes! Craft weekend sounds fun. I could bring out my creative side, that gets stifled alot as a part time accountant! I’d like to suggest a paint by number table, where you would find me. Oh, and my Valentine’s Day was low key too. After I left my husband his homemade card by the coffee maker, when I came down in the morning, his name and “husband” were crossed out…and my name and “wife” were penciled in. Lame but sort of clever!
martha beltran - it would be sooo cool ! happy week !
Laura - Sounds super fun and I’d love to come!
Thanks for the giveaway.
megan - holy mackeral YES! I would do ANYTHING to spend some time out of Maine! while it is a beautiful state..the best time to be here is really july, august & september….other than that, count me in!
i would love the awesome goody package…the colors would help me to make it to spring (which never comes…but summer arrives in July!)
thanks megan-
megan from maine
Jennifer R - I would love to come if I could ~although, I am not crafty at all! Maybe it would change me : )
Katrina - In a heartbeat. So fun! You inspired me to at least think of doing the same thing with some friends here at home. Hmm…
Natalie @ Book, Line, and Sinker - I’ll don my red ruby slippers for an event like that! Just promise me no tornadoes, please–I’m from the east coast and wouldn’t know what to do! Oh, and also promise that this isn’t an elaborate scheme just to get me out there to help give Waffle a bath or tackle your mountain of laundry!
Karen - I would come! It sounds wonderful!
Tim - um … no. but my wife would!
amy wade - i would totally come! i love to craft…would love it if you could do a tutorial for the clipboard on your blog!!! also, i personally know your neighbor so you know i am not some crazy person. LOL!
kate - Sign me up- I’d come!
Janelle - I would love to come but I would be nervous 🙂 We live in the Chicago suburbs and have lately been unhappy with our schools/neighborhood/etc….it’s just too much you know??? Anyways, my husband and I were talking the other day and I said, “how about Kansas?” He said, “KANSAS!?!?” 🙂
Liz - As long as I could afford the flight from NY to KS, of course! I’ve already printed out the crafts you did on your last one and am planning a craft day/night with my girlfriends here! Love your blog 🙂
Jenn - Heck yes I would! I really want that polka dotted flower, pick me! 🙂
Carrie - While I tend to be shy in a group (at first) I wouldn’t pass up the opportunity to meet you and craft with others. I feel I am a latent crafter. I started crafting when I had kids (for the fifteen years I worked with kids they always cringed when Miss Carrie was in charge of crafts lol)
It’s trite I know but your blog has been an inspiration to me as a stay at home mom. It was my longest learning curve for a job. You keep it real and have fun while doing so! So yes… I would love to come and meet others while bonding over crafts! Just wait till June when my baby is done nursing…rather not tote him with me all the way from Ohio! 😉
Angela Miller - In a heartbeat!!
Nicole - I would DIE!!!!!!
Corinne - Sure wish I was crafty…but I love reading and seeing your crafts.
Mary Craig - Oh I totally would if for no other reason but to see y’all in action! I’m not so good at crafts, but that hasn’t stopped me yet! 😉
robin allen - Heck I just live a couple of hours away and would LOVE to meet new friends that share the same love of a fun, happy, colorful, faith filled life….I live vicariously through your blog…I would love to be invited…check out my facebook page and look at my photos and see that we LOVE the same things….Invite Me…and I will come…
Becky - OOOOO…yes please!
www.google.com/accounts/o8/id?id=AItOawnkCcuN414qEtfLGnNw6EqiJPfBvmQbse0 - Ohhh Heck Yea!!!!! I would be so so Thankful to be able to do some crafting with the fuuniest, craftiest chick in Kansas!!!!!! Wow, that would ROCK!!!!!
Michelle Torres
decorater4life@aol.com
Amy - In a heartbeat!!!!!!!
Jermaine D. - I would love to come to a craft weekend in KS, but I live there too so I wouldn’t feel too far from home!
Erin T. - That would be so cool! I would love to come to craft weekend. 🙂
Kimberly - Seriously?!??!?! Need you even ask that? I’m looking at flights right now. 😉
You’d have to help me with the sewing though. I’m still figuring that out.
Sarah Mahan - Of course, I would!
Kelli - I WOULD LOVE TO COME TO A CRAFT WEEKEND! 🙂
Astrid - You bet I would! Happy Tuesday!
Adrienne S - I would definately. I would love to have that inspiration to do more crafting…step out of my box a little.
FeFe - I would be there, for sure! But even if I didn’t get the invite, I ‘d still craft along with ya. I went out this weekend and got supplies to do the embroidery hoop art and the ruffle pillow. I’ll get started on that as soon as I finish counting these thousands of box tops for the elementary school…yikes!
kristin - ha. i would be totally intimidated, probably end up playing with the dog, offering to refill drinks.

rosemarie - i feel like i know you already ..yes
Katy Stone - yesssssssssssss… and i want to know if anyone would actually say no to that- ha. my friend in tx and i were skyping last night and talked about our future craft weekend “like meg’s” (b/c we’re on a first name basis and all…) i’m living in africa now, so how about we wait another 3 months for said weekend? 😉
Heather - I’d definitely WANT to come. Like, really, really want to come so badly. I’d have to see how much airfare from Toronto to Kansas was first. 😉 I would absolutely be thrilled to meet you.
Lorie - With you Meg…that would be all kinds of wonderful! My husband went to Hesston College, and can’t stop talking about how wonderful Kansas is…..YES, I WOULD COME. Don’t they always say….if you build it, they will come.
Melissa - Of course…I would love love to come!
Julie Campbell - Wow! I bet you LOVE it when you see Big Brown pull up! How cool! I would love to have a craft weekend away! The stranger part doesn’t bother me… usually it’s just finding babysitters & fitting things in the budget. I love all of your projects & I think it would be a blast!
Jen@thecottagenest - Of course! I think it is such a fun idea that I think I want to do one myself one day!
Connie - I would love to come…I’ve never been to Kansas…Who wouldn’t want to hang out with you for the weekend making fun crafts and antiquing…Pick me Pick me!!
Lane - Ooooh definitely, for sure!! How fun!
Amy Lynne - Oh Yeah! It would be hard to leave my monkeys, though. It would definitely be something to think about!
stacie - I’d love to come!! Pick me, pick me.
Adele Chalker - Oh the things I would just love to do…
Sew a quilt or maybe 22…..
Lose 10 kilo’s, now that would just do!
Open my etsy shop,
make millions from paper and glue..
and last but not least
travel 14219.76 kms from Australia to Kansas City
Just to see you!!!
Does it show that I have a 6 year old and we read a lot of Dr Seuss?
Angel/TaDa!Creations - I would absolutely, without a doubt, 100% for sure come! What a fun giveaway too.
Ann R. - Would LOVE it! I used to go (that makes me sad that I actually put used to-only cause it has been 2yrs since my last scrap weekend and I used to go twice yearly!) all the time. Loved and imagined a weekend like yours when I saw the wonderful photos. Not that I would not feel comfortable with you and friends, I am sure that I would fit right in and love every minute but it would be great to bring my friend who usually goes with me too. (Not inviting her, just sayin..) My husband just got a new job offer yesterday after being out of work for 3 mo. so maybe I can start planning something again. Thanks Meg, and maybe if that does not happen, I could just plan one on my own!
Carrie - I would be at a craft weekend in a heartbeat. I am inspired by you everyday and would love to meet up with you and other woman for a crafty weekend. My blog has been “inactive” for a while, but I recently started updating it again and I check you out everyday. I was a little “jealous” when I read about your last crafty weekend.
Beth Ann - I’d be there in a heartbeat! A weekend away, to be creative? gab? no child/husband related responsibilities? just hang out? maybe shop? SIGN ME UP!
Lisa - Meg — I’ve been reading your blog for months and have never left a comment. Your blog has awakened me and helped me see colors again in life. I’ve been getting my craft on — even busted out my old singer. I feel 100% more alive and in tune with myself and my kids. I would love to visit you in Kansas and do some serious crafting – and I would love to win the goodies from your craft weekend. Thanks for your daily inspirations!
Nicole Rickman - In. a. HEARTBEAT!!
every single one of these gifts is beautiful!!
Heather R. - I’ll be right over! 🙂
cheryl @ a pretty cool life. - Totally. Or I might chicken out… 😉
Holly - Oh cool! I have been thinking about starting out witha craft night at my house since reading about your weekend, but I would LOVE to be there for a whole weekend!
Beinghappygirl.blogspot.com - Sure, I’ll come. I’d like to wait to come when it is a bit warmer. February weather can still be a bit dicey. I remember your snow pics.
Jen - I am as crafty as a big rock–not to mention, I live a LONG way from Kansas (Baltimore)–but I would totally come for a craft weekend–just for the fellowship (and the food!!)/ 🙂
Dawn - If I had the means to get there, absolutely!
Thanks for the great giveaway!
I can’t wait to see the goodies you are making for your shop – maybe I can get my hands on one of those pillows this time around! 🙂
Bethany Rodriguez - Well, I’m already in Kansas. But, I was totally jealous of your last weekend, so yes, I’d come.
Amanda Angert - OMG! I would TOTALLY come to your craft weekend! I was drooling over your pictures and feeling jealous of all those women!
Angie M - I would TOTALLY be there! Sorta can’t believe I wasn’t invited to the last one…..;)
Bernice - That would be so amazing! I’m not very talented, so I’d probably just end up watching everyone else in awe, but I’d learn so much! Too bad I’m way out in Australia…
Karen Giddings - Sounds very cool. Looking forward to seeing the details. 😀
Katie P - That would be an amazing weekend! I love to meet people and craft until I drop! What a fun idea.
Suzanne - Definitely!!! I love getting away and being creative. And I would love to meet new people that enjoy being crafty!!! I think it would be a ton of fun and inspiring!!
Tess S. - i’d loooove it.
Aimee - I would love it!!! I live in southern cali and all my friends or family just arent the crafty type so I am all my myself…
tam - absolutely! I would be completely nervous about meeting new people but totally do it! 🙂
angie128 - Yes! But I live in Memphis and that’s too far away. Boo.
But I would love to come and do crafts.
And play with that sweet Waffle too.
And be in your happy house.
And play with your glue gun.
Stephanie - I would absolutely come to Kansas. Never been there.
Ashlee Archibald - OF COURSE! I would love to come! thanks for inviting me 😉 xo
jackie mccobb - If I could come, I would. But I live in Paraguay and that’s pretty far away… 🙂
erica - oh heck yes i’d go to kansas! im not the most crafty – im more “crafty wannabe”…:D
thanks!
Kit - If I could get there, then I would come. I’ve never been to Kansas! But I would also be really nervous.
Sarah - If I could aford the flight from the UK then I would. Any excuse to visit America is a good excuse
Heather H. - I Love that necklace! Just the idea of a weekend away has me excited!
Nicole - i would. goosebumps. 🙂
Alissa - Oh, yeah!! For sure! In fact my friends and I who follow your blog have already talked about making the drive (8 hours!) to go to the antique shop you girls went to on your craft weekend and then driving by your house just so we could say we saw it:) A craft weekend at your house would be so great!
Pamela M - I have a passport. What time does the plane leave?
edie - It sounds completely dreamy and inspiring and I’d LOVE to. Speaking of dreamy and inspiring, so wish I were joining you for Blue Lily Ms. Meg. Hope you have a ball.
xo,
edie
Ana M - OMG !!! YESSSS, SURE I WOULD COME !!! PICK ME, PICK ME !!
Though I have to say that i have a very little tiny problem that may disturb our plans…I LIVE IN RIO DE JANEIRO -BRAZIL!!!! 🙁
I love your blog, really do…I certainly would LOOOVEEE to go to your simply the best craft weekend…have the opportunity to meet you in person, that’s a dream come true…but the distance is an obstacle…sadly
love,
Ana M
mary elizabeth - Um, YEAH! I’d be on a plane or in the car as quick as I could grab an ATM card to get there! I would totally love to come over to your house and play all weekend!
nancie - sounds like fun to me!!
i LOVE the things y’all made…
Karen - are you accepting crafters from Australia???
Kerry - I would FLY there all the way from the UK just to spend the weekend crafting with you 🙂 count me in x
Kathie Simmons - I am very shy, but I am getting ready to take some chances. Even if just to tell you that you are my 12-year-old’s grown-up twin. Although my Meg has lighter hair than you do now. Tomorrow she is getting the tips dyed blue because, and I quote, “I need more color in my life!” It’s eery.
Susan - Of course! I love the Midwest, antiques and meeting new people. Sign me up 🙂
Jen - Yes!! But like Michelle I live in Australia so it might be a bit far (maybe one day). You are always welcome here for a craft weekend 🙂
My craft weekend would also be a cooking weekend where we share our favourite dishes.
Maybe I should hold one at the same time and we can skype in.
x
Michelle from Australia - I live in Australia. It would be a bit of a long trip. But with about 12 months notice (I know this is not possible but I can dream right??) I might be able to make it!
Amber - hi. the answer would totally be YES. (i would just have to work out the round the world trip first 😉 But i think it’s a brilliant idea. Do it!! x
Jennifer - OF COURSE! I wouldn’t even have to buy a plane ticket…it would just be a few short minutes! I’m not that “crafty”, but would come up with something! I do have some FABULOUS crafty friends in the area!
princess lasertron - duh! I could and I would!
~Debra - I absolutely would attend, if I didn’t currently live in Japan. Assuming at the time that I was living Stateside I would be there in a heartbeat but more than that, I’d also make a side trip to Wichita which is where I was born. I haven’t been back to Kansas since I moved away at age 5.
By the way, I’ve always wanted to ask you how you get so many lovely items? It seems like you are “always” getting packages from people. Do you ever have to buy anything? ha ha!
leslie @ topofthepage - i would totally come!! if kansas was like one thousand miles closer to california. so i could attend in my heart. how’s that?
Ali - YES!!!! That would be amazing!! I am far away in CA but if I could make it work with the kids and the $$, I would be there in a heartbeat! F-U-N!
Casey - Oh that would be lovely, but I think my four little ones would miss me a wee bit. Maybe when they are just a smidge older. 🙂
Love that ruffle pillow by the way!
Kori - heck yes i would!
Virginia - A craft weekend would make my heart so happy! And I’ve never been to Kansas…
Keri ~ Forever Folding Laundry - Of course!
You host first and then
I’ll host the second time out here in California.
I can definitely kick my family out for the weekend.
Deal?
🙂
georgia - Ohhhhhhh my!!! If I could afford the flight to kansas from the uk I would be there before you can say whatever!
🙂 xx
kelly - O yes I would come in a HEARTBEAT!!!!!!!!!
Carrie - I’m there.
karen - Yes. That would be sooooo wonderful.
Lori Danelle - You know I would!!!! Especially since you’re a stranger that I sort of know & we know all the same people!
Plus, my Mom would love to baby-sit while I was there. 🙂
the.mrs - Are you kidding?! Why, of course!! What a lovely little escape that would be!
Jaime - Yes, I’d totally be there for one because I love meeting people, hanging out and get to know them and two because I could really up my craft meter and I think hanging out with you and other crafty people might help! LOL
Sue Linse - can i come with Alyssa, Julie and Melissa?
Lori - Yes! Yes! YES! I am THERE. I have relatives in Kansas so I can drop the kids off.:) I make a FAB Triple Chocolate Mess in my crock pot. Can I come?:) Lori
Sarah K - Yes, yes, yes! Pick me! Pick me! 🙂
Miranda - I only live a few hours away, so I’d definitely think about it!!
Alysa - oh 100% I would be there … and I’d bring Julie K. with me … and Melissa and Kristin and it would be just about the happiest weekend ever. Pick us, pick us! =)
nicole @ deliajude - YES! Are you paying the airfare?
Denise - To be honest…I wouldn’t come. If I have time away from my family I want it to be in Boston with my Nana. Besides, I don’t craft which is why I need to win this prize since I’ll never make any of this great stuff for myself! 🙂
Wendy - Your blog is such a happy and colorful place. I love visiting every day. I am in WA state and would LOVE to come for a craft weekend! ✿◕ ‿ ◕✿
Kristy - Since I only live a few hours from you, I would LOVE to come to a craft weekend! I feel a little connection to you and your blog as I too am a Chicago girl who as moved to Kansas. Your blog is the first I read everyday, as it adds a little color to my morning. 🙂
Lori - ABSO-STINKIN-LUTELY! I love crafting, and meeting ppl across the miles is totally my bag, baby!
xox,
Lori

I would definately come I’d bring the wine, cheese and enough money and room in my suitcase to shop til I DROP!!!! OMg what I would not give for soma USA shopping! xx
Christina - I so love how you see a rainbow everywhere…it’s like you have a keen sense of God’s goodness and faithfulness and how it is manifested by the rainbow. I would totally go to a weekend like that…but I would be really nervous because I think I’m weird. 🙂 I LOVE that lip balm.
