Hey, we have to be prepared right? 😂 My friend actually packs way more than me so I’m pretty chill compared to her. God love her, she really does bring her entire room! 😂😂
I loved seeing what you packed. My favorite part is seeing the page kits/kits you packed with the pictures you plan to use with each one. Have so much fun this weekend!!!
@@jessicaemichaels I was thinking about your babies and having to leave them. When my kids were little and I would leave them for a little trip I think I was a better mom after coming back because I took time for me so I could give more to them!!
You will have plenty to work on! I remember the days of packing the back of the van and heading to retreats. Nowadays it’s day crops, but hoping to get to a few more retreats in the future.
Thank you very much for this video. I'm off for a crop this weekend too and thought I had packed everything but seeing this there were some items I had forgotten so I stored them right away. Anxious to see what you come up with. You have lots and lots of plans how many layouts are you gonna make? I have pagekits for 15 layouts hope I will complete them they all are based upon the sketches from 30 days of sketches series 14. Have so much fun on your weekend enjoy it.
Oh yayyyy! I love 30 days of sketches, such great inspiration! That should make for some quick layouts for you! I’m not setting my bar super high lol. I haven’t been to a crop in forever and I’m sure I’ll be talking more than working so if I get 5 done I’ll be amazed. 🤣🤣🤣
What fun!! It’s prolly your first retreat in a while! You make a really good point about those rolling totes being so heavy! I know when I went to the scrapbook expo last month, my back was screaming after lifting mine and my friend’s in and out of the back of my SUV. Maybe I’ll try more smaller bags next time too. I remember one retreat I went to I used a bunch of thirty one bags and someone thought I was a consultant. I said no, I’m not a really good customer!! 😅 I would love to see how you set all of this up at your retreat. I’ve seen some people even bring their IKEA carts.
I honestly thought about bringing my IKEA cart! This is my first time at this one though so I better leave it at home haha. Those rolling totes ARE so heavy!!!! I absolutely love them and they’re great but I had to unload mine just to get it in and out of the car so to me, that wasn’t worth it lol. I’d much rather make a gazillion trips in and back out with my smaller bags. I’m a really good Thirty One customer too as you can see! Hahaha. I love their stuff. Those canvas bags hold up so well! I’ll have to do a video or at least snap some pics for IG once I get set up! ❤️❤️❤️ It has been so long since I’ve gone to an overnight/weekend crop. Actually, I think the last one I went to was when Oliver(first born) was about 9 months old and I took him with me!!! We rented an entire scrapbook house so it was easy for him to come along there. I’m looking forward to this weekend but I’m missing my babies already!
@@jessicaemichaels I’m sure you need a getaway!! But yeah, it’s so hard to leave those babies!! On another note, a lot of scrappers are using those collapsible wagons to haul everything between car and table.
Holy cow! How long is the crop? I wouldn't get to even get to do half of that stuff if I was gone for a month! I'm exhausted just watching you, lol. When my friends and I go to crop we coordinate our supplies. One person brings the punches, one brings the heat tool, one brings a scoreboard, etc. None of use those same tools at the same time so we don't all need to bring the same stuff.
lol it was a 3 day crop and honestly, I did touch or use almost everything I took. My friends and I did coordinate what we took. One of us brought the cricut, I brought the Minc and Big Shot… etc. I got more done than I thought I would honestly! I surprised myself! 😂
I pack a ton too & enjoyed seeing what all you are taking. My next retreat is 5 weeks from today & I’m so looking forward to it! I also loved your bag either the clear top. Do you have a link for it? Tfs!
So glad you enjoyed the video and my rambling! 🤣 you are going to have so much fun at your crop! I do have a link for the bag, I love it so much! amzn.to/3JffCM2
Thanks so much for sharing what you take to a crop. It’s nice to know that I am not the only one who takes many options. LOL….. Can you tell me where you got the shelves for your 12 x 12 iris containers. I would love to buy some!
Hey we gotta have options, right? Like what if I get there and I’m not in the mood to work on beach photos so I brought many others! 🤣 I absolutely love my storage shelves for the iris containers. I got them from Michaels(online). But don’t pay full price because they always go on sale! That’s when I got mine and I also ordered extra shelves to fit more containers in. www.michaels.com/product/modular-mobile-panel-tower-by-simply-tidy-10624098?michaelsStore=2710&inv=3
@@jessicaemichaels thanks. I will order some as soon as they go on sale again. Have fun at your crop! I am going to one next week and now I know just what to pack!!!
Mine sat for I think a week before I got back to my room again but I packed basically how my room is arranged so it was just a matter of putting my bins back where they belong. It wasn’t too bad! I’m still working from my planned page kits as well.
I’m going to a crop at the end of the month. I always over pack. I like seeing that other people bring everything with them too!

Wow!
I know it’s a lot! 😂

Awe thank you so much! The NJFB tote with that kit is pretty cool too. ❤❤❤
I love seeing behind the scenes and not feeling alone in taking my whole room. 🤣 Thanks for sharing!
You are so not alone! Hahaha
This was fun to watch!! You are so well prepared!! I hope you have lots of fun at your crop and I can't wait to see what you create there!! Enjoy!!
Thank you so much lovely! I’m excited! Sad to leave my babies for the weekend but I’ll scoop them all up and give them lovins when I get home!

That’s so amazing! I think you are truly right. Let’s hope I come back feeling refreshed so I can keep up with these babies! 🤣🤣

* entire room * check! That seems like the correct packing list. Sounds like a super fun crop! Nails on point btw.
Hahaha right? But when I got there I was like hmmm I wish I had _____. 🤣 thanks girl! Almost time to pick another color!

Do you come home and put it all away immediately? That’s my problem. I just let it sit and dread putting it all away.
