Scrap Retreat anyone?

April 29, 2009 by maggie Lamarre

Hi Everyone:

Lately I’ve been thinking of nothing else but to go to a scrap retreat..My friend Christine Penaflor owns a wonderful Scrap Retreat house..

I’ve been thinking wouldn’t it be nice to get away to Sunny California?

Here’s more info for you to gather your friends to a wonderful spot..

Nestled in a quiet community in Riverside County, California, this brand new 4100+ square foot retreat house is just minutes away from the Temecula wine country and has several inviting features ideal for your scrapbooking, cropping, and stamping enjoyment. The interior areas of the Scrap Retreat House was designed with other scrapbooking enthusiasts in mind by a fellow scrapbooker. Our vision is to offer our guests an inspiring atmosphere in which they can enjoy creating projects that capture their memories as well as creating new memories with friends who join them in experiencing a weekend at the retreat house.

The crop area is over 500 square feet and dedicated for the use of weekend retreat guests. This elegantly appointed room boasts custom built coffered ceilings and a mirrored wall surrounded by beautiful moulding. Nine recessed lights provide daylight lighting ideal for scrapbooking. The overhead surround sound speaker system is connected to the digital stereo receiver equipped with an iPod docking station where guests are welcome to listen to their favorite music playlists.

Each guest is treated to their own six-foot long table which provides a spacious area to freely create their projects. Guests are provided with comfortable leather task chairs which easily move on casters as they work at the tables. Each table is also equipped with a daylight lamp for detail work and a power strip to conveniently connect laptops or other electronic devices for use in their work space. No need to pack up supplies each day  because guests can choose to work 24 hours each day if they like! Guests are welcome to create all weekend long (up to 54 hours during the entire weekend!). Check-in time is at 10:00 a.m. on Friday and check-out time is 4:00 p.m. on Sunday.

There are five bedrooms and four and a half bathrooms in the retreat house. Each spacious bedroom accommodates two people with their own twin-size bed. The master suite accommodates four guests comfortably. Linens and towels are also provided.
