🧵✨ PDH Throwback Thursday ✨🧵Then vs. Now!

Take a look back at one of our favorite crafts—traditional Cross-Stitching! With just needle, thread, and fabric, participants created beautiful designs one stitch at a time.

Today, we've added a sparkling twist with Bead Cross-Stitching! Using colorful beads instead of thread, crafters can create eye-catching artwork while building the same focus, patience, and fine motor skills that made the original craft such a success.

It's amazing to see how our activities evolve while keeping the creativity and enjoyment that everyone loves.

Which do you prefer: Classic Cross-Stitching or Bead Cross-Stitching? Let us know in the comments! 💖

❤️🤍🩵✨ WE WANT {to meet} YOU! ✨❤️🤍🩵

Have you been thinking about coming to the Paper Doll House but aren't quite sure what to expect?

Maybe you're wondering:
✂️ Do I need to bring my own supplies?
🛏️ What are the sleeping arrangements like?
🍪 What's included?
🎨 Will I fit in if I come by myself?
💖 Is it really as much fun as everyone says?

The answer to that last one is YES. 😉

If you have questions, ask away! Drop them in the comments ⤵️or send us a message. Better yet, let our amazing PDH community help answer them. Many of our guests remember exactly what it felt like before their first visit and would be happy to share their experiences.

Sometimes all it takes is one weekend to discover your new favorite place, your new favorite hobby space, and a few new crafty friends.

💗 You know the one…

The weekend where you finally finish a few projects instead of adding to the pile.

The one where your biggest decision is which supplies to pack.

The one filled with laughter, snacks, late-night creativity, and friends who completely understand why bringing three totes of craft supplies is perfectly reasonable.

The one where nobody asks what’s for dinner.

Nobody needs a ride.

Nobody needs their laundry done.

And for a few glorious days, your only job is to create.

Turns out, that weekend isn’t just something you’ve been talking about.

Grab your crafty crew (or come make new friends) and join us at The Paper Doll House for a creative getaway filled with projects, inspiration, laughter, and all the cozy retreat vibes you love.

Did your family ever call you to Sunday breakfast like THIS? 🦁🍳 Probably not. 😂

At The Paper Doll House, Sunday Brunch comes with Cooper wearing his famous lion hat and making sure everyone knows it's time to eat!

It's the little things that make a retreat special—the laughter, the friendships, the inside jokes, and yes... Cooper's occasional breakfast announcements.

You won't find this kind of Sunday morning anywhere else. ❤️

Come spend some time with us again soon! https://www.thepaperdollhouse.com/availability
