geometric air plant holders by lisa lewis at little retreats by jane via seejaneblog

Earlier this month was the second little retreat, it was filled with the cozy spirit of winter and social energy. The smiles were generous and the laughter was contagious. The food was superb, and the energy each guest brought made the evening magical.

Thank you to everyone involved – Lisa Lewis of Light & Ink, Kitchen 88, Mindy Johnson as photographer and each and every guest – you allow these events to thrive. Stay tuned to hear what is on the schedule for January! xo.

December 2, 2014

The very first little retreat was held in my home last week, where we gathered like family in a room that felt lived in and warm. My heart has been overflowing for a week due to how well the evening was received. Thank you to everyone who participated – Lizy Bowden for teaching us how to make beautiful wreaths out of fresh greenery, the guests for being an absolute joy, and to kitchen.88 for creating delicious food.

The most satisfying thing about the evening was the laughter and kindness that abounded, I cherish events that encourage us to be present to the moment.

I will let these photos speak for themselves,
