Hi babe,

What does it mean to romanticize your life, even during turbulent times? How do we find magic and romance in the mundane without relying on spending tons of money or living a lavish lifestyle? How do we romanticize being good neighbors, friends, partners, and community members? TLDR; Through creative journaling practices!

Join us for an in-person journaling workshop where we will learn how creative journaling practices can help you to romanticize and find magic in your life! If you are a crafty babe or someone seeking a creative outlet, this class is designed for you. The event will be followed by a 30-minute social hour where you have the opportunity to make new friends, and if you are feeling inspired, put to use some of the tools and tips you learned in the workshop!

In The Art of Romanticizing Your Life in Journals, we will explore how to crack open perfectionism that can inhibit our creative vision, how to capture our lives through various journaling modalities (including junk journaling!), and nerd out about our favorite art supplies. 

Lifelong journaler and paper crafter Erin Fairchild of Journal As Altar will lead us through an inspired process to find ourselves on our pages. We will explore affirmations to crack perfectionism and interactive writing prompts. There will be lots of time for connection and creativity with a social hour at the end of class. Plus we will have a community hang after the class to make new friends, collage and chat!  

All this magical goodness takes place on Sunday, August 10th from 12-2 PM PDT. There are just 10 in-person spots and 1 free BIPOC spot left for this workshop, so don't drag your feet!
