The Driftwood and Shine Live 2025 Retreat is for all crafters that love the Lord and love to craft and have fun and fellowship with like minded crafters. The Retreat will be held on Sept 12th and 13th, 2025, in Beaumont, Texas. The host hotel is the Holiday Inn and Suites on Walden Road just off I10. This will be the second year we have held the Retreat at this location because of how good they were to us last year. It is an event you will not want to miss. This is a faith based retreat with each day starting with a devotion and an old fashioned Gospel Sing on Friday night.
There is so much fun to be had. The crafting is top notch with Penny and Allen from Re-Make It Pretty, Renee with Simply Simple Craft Ideas, Leigh Ann with Deeda’s Crafts and Creations and of course the Driftwood and Shine crew. We play games and trivia. We do a Q & A everyday so you can ask questions of the presenters. We have outstanding food prepared by the staff of the hotel. I am gonna tell you the roasted red potatoes from last year is something I still crave! They were phenomenal. All the food was superb.
Included with your Retreat cost is 6 crafts and supplies (minus paint brushes – we ask that you bring some from home if you can), swag bags, door prizes, awesome buffets on Friday and Satuday for lunch, appetizers in the afternoon on Friday and Saturday, coffee, tea, water and drinks provided all day Friday and Saturday and an old fashioned Gospel Sing on Friday night!
The Holiday Inn and Suites has beds that are so comfortable we didn’t want to leave, their food as I said was nothing like normal restaurant food, and you get a ticket for breakfast with each room night stay. Their breakfast is buffet style with eggs, etc. prepared for you if you want something that is not on the buffet. The hotel room cost is not included in the Retreat cost. We do not have the actual room cost at this time, but assured that it will be similar to last year, which was $129 a night for double rooms and $119 a night for king rooms.
It is more fun than you could even imagine jammed into 2 incredible days. The question always arises as to what you get for the $400 registration fee. Please see the above paragraph for all that is included. You will not find a cheaper Retreat with all that is included with this one. Click the link below to go to purchase your ticket! There are no refunds for any reason!
