I wanted to share the last evening of the retreat with all of you. It was a beautiful night held down the street from the hotel at a delightful store named Prize. I have always wanted to visit Jennifer's store, you may remember it from San Francisco. She is originally from Ashland so she moved Prize to her hometown. I once saw a magazine article about her shop and have wanted to visit it every since then. Let's just say I was not disappointed. She has such a fresh look, Lots of gorgeous antique chandeliers against a beautiful blue background. Old trophies, specialty candies, papers, jewelry and goodies along with some vintage paintings and home goods. It was a perfect background to end such a special event. Jennifer provided all of us with sweet cupcakes and lemonade. Anahata made prize necklaces for each person with a mystery number on the back. Later everyone found out that the number was for a drawing. Anahata, Pam and myself each gave a way a piece of our art work. Thank you, thank you again for everyone being so wonderful. It was a magical evening. Thank you again Jennifer for helping us make our night so special.
Look how glamorous Esther looks with her new do!
There is Jennifer behind the counter!
Anahata and Miss Sally Jean!
Look at this adorable dress that she made herself.
Beautiful Elisabeth!
Can you believe this pretty girl has been camping all week! Romey made each teacher the cutest little creature, I love mine! Check out her etsy shop!
Leslie is wearing a cool necklace that she will be teaching at Artfest.
