What a few days!! 💜
I know I’ve been quiet on here, but I’ve been at Belton Woods Hotel & Spa for three full days of workshops, learning, creating, eating… a few w**es and a LOT of laughing! 🥂😂 I honestly can’t tell you how much I’ve loved every minute.
These retreats mean so much more than just learning something new. When you run a small business, so much of it is just you - making the decisions, planning what’s next and trying to keep all the plates spinning… and if you’re anything like me, taking on far too much because you want to do it ALL! 🙈😂 Spending time with people who understand all of that, because they’re doing it too, is just what you need sometimes.
It was so good to catch up with those I already know and meet some wonderful new people along the way! 🥰 You chat, share ideas, encourage each other… and come away remembering why you started in the first place 💜✨
As always, it was brought together by the best people, Helen & Lesley - thank you both for making it such a wonderful few days! 🥰
I also felt so privileged to meet Michelle from Mint by Michelle. Such a fabulous, inspiring lady - and one of those people who makes you feel like you’ve known her for years! So generous with her knowledge, and we had plenty of laughs along the way 💕
My head is now full of ideas and possibilities, and I can’t wait to bring what I’ve learnt back to Lavender Grove and share it with you all! 🎨 I’ve got a few pics and videos to share too, so you can have a little peek at what I’ve been up to 👀💜
I’ve decided not to open the boutique today, but I’m only up the road. If you’re desperate for something, send me a message on Facebook or Instagram and I’ll do my best to help 💌
I’ll be back open:
🌿 Tomorrow & Friday 10–4pm
🌿 Saturday 9–1pm
Looking forward to seeing you and having a catch-up - I’ve got plenty to tell you! 😊
Kelly ❤️
