What Should I Bring to the Retreat? (2010)
January 29th, 2010
Scrapping “gear”
(i.e. paper, photos, tools, embellishments, anything you think you’ll use while working on your album or pages) Bring what you need, but PLEASE be conscious of the fact that your crop space is YOUR crop space and your neighbor's space is HER space. So, don't bring everything you own ; ). But, you can always keep some of your stuff in your room or vehicle until you need it. You never know what you might become inspired to do once you see the pages others have done! Each cropper will have a roomy area in which to work. *If you bring a lamp or electrical tool, you MUST bring an extension cord.
Ipods & MP3 players
We will be playing music of all types during the weekend. It will be upbeat stuff from "oldies" to "today's" tunes. If something is not to your liking, feel free to put ear buds in or headphones on and rock out to your own favorite songs. If you watch a movie on your laptop or portable DVD player, PLEASE put ear buds in or headphones on!
Seat cushion for your chair, or a comfortable chair to sit in
This weekend is going to involve LOTS of sitting, be kind to your bottom! Hours and hours of sitting will make a rear really sore. So, plan ahead and bring what you need to be comfortable. Almost all of the chairs at Skyline are ladder back chairs which are not really comfortable for long periods of time. There is certainly room for your computer chairs. Phronsa, Paulette, and Karen will be bringing theirs FOR SURE!!!
Extension cords &/or power strips
If you plan to bring ANYTHING requiring an electrical outlet, we ask that you bring your own extension cords and power strips. You may be seated close to an outlet; in which case, you can store any unused cords in your room or vehicle. ...
