🎨✨ Sometimes the BEST days are the small, relaxing ones. ✨🎨

Yesterday was our ME Time Adult Camp, and while we had a small group, it was SO worth it! 💕

Great conversation, great music, lots of laughs, and plenty of uninterrupted time to just CREATE & UNWIND.

Both ladies chose to make Sea Glass Trees…one went Christmas 🎄 and the other Halloween 🎃! Can you believe we’re already creating for the holidays?! This year is flying by!

We took a break from crafting and enjoyed lunch together from Torrance Bakery 🥪 before getting back to our projects.

No rushing. No pressure. Just a really fun, relaxing day spent creating and connecting. 🖤🩶🩵

Thank you so much for joining us for our first ME Time Adult Camp! ☕🎨✨ We loved spending the day with you and seeing your beautiful creations come to life.

Sometimes a little ME Time is exactly what we need. 💕

✨🌊 SEA GLASS MAGIC IS HAPPENING THIS SATURDAY! 🌊✨

Picture this: a glowing, one-of-a-kind tree made entirely from gorgeous sea glass — in YOUR colors, YOUR style, with YOUR finishing touches. 💙💜🩷💚

This is one of those projects that you have to see lit up to truly appreciate. And that moment when you turn on those fairy lights for the first time? PURE JOY! ✨

The best part? There is no “one way” to make it!

🌊 Go coastal with dreamy blues, aqua & teal
🌸 Create a whimsical pastel tree with flowers
🐚 Add shells and seaside touches
🌿 Turn it into a glowing sea glass succulent
🎃 Ready for fall or Halloween? Give it a seasonal twist!
🎄 Already thinking Christmas? Create a holiday tree you’ll bring out year after year
✨ Or completely surprise us with YOUR idea!

You choose every detail.

🐚 Choose your size:
7”, 9” or 13” cone base

🎨 Choose from 12 gorgeous sea glass colors:
White • Ice Blue • Aqua Blue • Teal • Dark Blue • Red • Light Green • Emerald Green • Dark Green • Yellow • Pink • Purple

✨ Then add your lights, topper and finishing touches to make it completely your own.

We LOVE this workshop because everyone starts with the same idea and somehow no two creations ever look alike.

📍 Hammer & Stain Beach Cities

Come create something that glows as beautifully during summer as it does during the holidays. 🌊✨

Which one are you making — coastal, floral, succulent, Halloween or Christmas? 👇

🌊📚 What an AMAZING Book Club Night! 📚🌊

Last night we truly Dove Into Dreams with author Szilvia Gogh, and what an incredible evening of stories, creativity, and connection!

We absolutely loved hearing about Szilvia’s adventures and the experiences that have shaped her life—from how she first started diving, to turning her passion into an incredible career, and even becoming an underwater stunt woman in the movie industry! 🎬🤿

We got to ask all the fun questions too—her favorite places to dive, the scariest places she’s been, her most memorable adventures, and so much more. Hearing the stories directly from the woman who lived them made Diving Into Dreams come alive in a completely different way. 💙

And, of course, we had to get creative! 🎨🌊 Everyone designed their own Ocean Resin Board, and we LOVE how different and beautiful each one turned out. Same inspiration, completely different creations—that’s one of our favorite parts!

A HUGE thank you to Szilvia for spending the evening with us, sharing your stories, signing our books, answering all of our questions, and inspiring us to keep dreaming and exploring. 💙

And thank you to everyone who joined us and to Moonstone & Mist Bookshop for another wonderful collaboration.

📚✨ This is exactly what we envisioned for our Book Club—READ • CREATE • CONNECT.

We can’t wait to share what’s coming next!

We are so excited to partner with Califorium to bring you a completely new hands-on experience — our KOKEDAMA CRASH COURSE! 🌱

Never heard of Kokedama? You’re going to love it! Kokedama is the beautiful Japanese art of growing a real, living plant without a traditional pot. Instead, the roots are wrapped into a soil and moss ball, creating a gorgeous piece of living art for your home. 💚

During this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn step-by-step how to create your very own Kokedama using hand-picked materials and a beautiful live plant. No green thumb required!

But of course, we had to add a little Hammer & Stain to the experience! 🔨🎨 You’ll also create and personalize your own wooden box to display your Kokedama — included with your workshop!

🌿 Kokedama hands-on instruction
🪴 Beautiful LIVE plant + all materials
🔨 Create your own wooden display box
💚 Take home TWO things you made yourself — your Kokedama AND your custom box!

🕓 4:00 PM
📍 Hammer & Stain Beach Cities

Come get your hands a little dirty, learn something new, and create something beautiful with us! 🌱✨
