Today's the last day to get in on the cheap rate for your room at the hotel!

AAAANND, don't forget to register by paying.  Click that little paypal button on the upper right side of this blog.  See you soon... I am already counting down.

P.S.  The block of rooms we reserved are for those people who register for Scrapfest.  If you aren't listed on the registrants list, the cheaper room rate will not apply for your room, just FYI. :)

Oh hey, look what I found from last year! (Keep scrolling for info on 2014)

Well look who finally updated the bloggity blog!

Sorry things have been a little out of control in my life, and ScrapFest/CraftFest/FunFest/Check-Out-of-Everyday-LifeFest has been on the books and in my mind for several months now.  And tonight, finally, I am getting the word out to all y'all, so we can get this party started.

This year, since most are old hats (not that we're old, we're just repeat ScrapFesters), I have opted to just have you pay your fee and we'll call it good for registration.  IF you're new, please do comment on this blog so I can know who you are.  I'll update the side bar so we can know who's in for the fun, but more than anything, just know that once your money hits my PayPal, you're registered.  If you're paying for a friend, also comment so I don't get too confused.

And now for the information that's pretty much the same as it is every year:

The price is $40.00 for a full three days of fun! That's right, we have the room all day Friday, Saturday, AND Sunday this year.  You can even stay and craft after you checkout of your hotel on Sunday if you have a few more little projects you'd like to finish before you head home.  CRAFTFEST isn't just about coming to scrapbook anymore. We hope you'll pack up yourself, your unfinished projects, your friends, and some munchies and head to St. George, Utah the weekend of February 21, 22, and 23.   This event is a well deserved break for any and all who'd like to register.  And in case there's any confusion, this is a kid-free (exception is nursing babies), 18 and older women event.  I know some of your husbands and kidlets are dying to get in.  We're keeping it exclusive to a point since we don't need any extra distractions keeping us from getting our craft on.

Depending on how many people register will determine any frills and chills we can give you.  We're just trying to get enough to cover the room, and then the rest we'll plan the closer to the event.  We're getting older and wiser, so we know not to commit ourselves to too much.

After a successful year couple of years, we're continuing our stay at

Hilton Garden Inn

1731 S. Convention Center Dr.

St. George, UT 84790

(435) 634-4100

We've negotiated a special room rate with the Hilton Garden Inn and your room rate must be reserved BY MONDAY, JANUARY 20, 2014 (that's Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday if that helps you remember!) in order to get the special rate reserved by CraftFest. Make sure you tell them you're with our group to get the best rate. The more friends you bring, the more cheap your room, so invite all you can and come for a girls weekend of rest, relaxation, and accomplishments (even if your accomplishment is just sitting there for an entire weekend feeding ONLY yourself, sleeping whenever you want, and enjoying quality conversations with THE most awesome gals around.)  Rooms this year are $89.00 for the group rate (for two queens; it's cheaper for one king.)  There are only a certain amount of rooms reserved for us, so please book PRONTO.  Once those rooms are gone, they can charge whatever they want to charge, so getchyer room soon!

If you have any questions, please post a comment on this blog and then check back regularly to see if your name is on the list on the right side toolbar under "Who's Coming to ScrapFest." That will serve as your receipt for the event. *Please note that it will take a few days to process your registration form and payment for ScrapFest. And by process, it means that it'll take me, Sarah Barlow, a few days to catch up on all my emails.  Too, we'll be setting up a Facebook Group Page where announcements, etc. will be made.

Please let us know if you have any comments or concerns. Please let all your friends know. We're going to cut it off after the first 60 good-timers sign up, so don't wait until the last minute.
