Friday morning, you’re allowed to give yourself on Friday morning, you’re allowed to give yourself one hour. Just for your craft and your people. Crafty Hour is Friday at 10am PST on Zoom. Pour something warm, pick up whatever you’re working on, and spend a little time with makers who get it. Past Craftcation friends, curious newcomers, and anyone with questions about the events and programs are all welcome. It doesn’t have to be productive. It just has to be yours. Share this with a creative who could use a soft landing before the weekend, and comment CRAFTY for the link. 🧡

Somewhere out there is a group chat of seven stran Somewhere out there is a group chat of seven strangers who are about to become your emergency contacts. We even have a planner for that, thanks to this next presenter Heather Kell of @kellofaplan. She is the founder and CEO of Kellofaplan, a planner and stationery brand helping people plan a life they love. Our community loves a sticker and she designs her planner sets with loads of practical and fun elements, like stickers. Heather began sharing her love of decorative planning in 2015 and now in 2026 is named to the Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing private companies in America! If you or someone you know is a planner lover, junk journal’er you really need to check her and Craftcation 2027 out! #craftcation #plannerlove #junkjournals #sticker

Nobody tells you what happens at lunch on day thre Nobody tells you what happens at lunch on day three. A break at the beach, the amount of creative activity and information can have you needing a moment (I find a 10 minute solitude break with my feet up keeps me crafting into the wee hours of 9pm). What better place to check out this presenter’s books than down by the beach. Bridget Watson Payne is back for more wonderful workshops and panels to help attendees find the right project management style as well as demystify the publishing world for artists and creatives, just those topics has my head spinning with ideas! Follow her at @watsonpayne and get ready for your crafty beach side get away! Comment TOUR to check it out! #craftcation #makersformakers #creativeretreats #creativeentrepreneur

She was on track for a career in biological resear She was on track for a career in biological research, molecular biology degree, bioethics the whole thang. Then as it so often does, art took over. Jenny Chang is a natural dye artist based in Overland Park, KS and she is one of those rare teachers who brings two completely different kinds of genius into the same room. The painter’s eye for color and composition. The scientist’s obsession with experimentation, process, and figuring out exactly why something works the way it does. Check her out at canvasandjoy. Natural dye. Fiber arts. Creative science. A little bit of chaos. All of it at Craftcation 2027. Drop a plant emoji if natural dye is on your 2027 creative bucket list — and get your registration started at the link in bio. #craftcation #makersformakers #creativebusinessowner #artistsupportartists #craftersgonnacraft
Some people walk into the room and the whole tempe Some people walk into the room and the whole temperature changes. Jill-Bate-Moore was that person. Creativity, courage, community - she didn’t just talk about those things. She lived them out loud and she brought everyone around her along for the ride. That kind of person leaves a mark long after they’re gone. Started in 2026, the Jill Bates-Moore Scholarship gives one Black woman creative a full Craftcation registration - 200+ workshops, business classes and five days of community by the beach in Ventura, CA. Because Jill believed that this experience should reach further and we intend to carry it forward.
