About The Owner

 My name is Stacy, a single mother of one son who has been my world the last 27 yrs and the subject of most of my scrapbooks!  I've since gained a beautiful daughter in law (2022) and this year (2023) I became a Grandma!! 🥰 So excited to have a new little one to scrap!  I work full time for a credit union where I've been since 1999.  However, my passion is crafting! If I could do that for a living, I would in a heartbeat!  

I've been scrapbooking and making cards for many years. Years ago, my friends and I, along with some family, went to a scrapbook retreat for the first time.  As soon as I walked in I knew that I wanted to open one of my own retreats one day! To be able to provide other passionate crafters the space to come together, relax and have fun would truly be a blessing!

That dream came true January 2020!! 

  Live, Laugh, Love to Craft’s home is a spacious, open ranch that can be rented weekends, by the week or daily. The retreat is located in Thumb (Caro) Mi.

It has 4 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, which can accommodate up to 10 guests! Each guest will have their own comfy twin bed (no sharing or bunk beds), all linens provided.

The bathrooms are stocked with extra towels and some toiletries in case you have forgotten something.  Each bathroom also has a hairdryer, straightener, shampoo, conditioner and shower gel.  

The home is an un-hosted retreat where you can make your own snacks/meals in our well stocked kitchen that boasts brand new stainless steel appliances! If you don’t feel like cooking there is a really good bar & grill across the street and less than 5 miles away there are a few other good family restaurants plus all the popular fast-food places. 

In the brightly lit craft room, each guest will have their own 6ft. table with comfy ergonomic office chairs, cupholders and free WiFi. We have a HUGE selection of stamps, (May want to bring your own stamp pad) couple of cricuts, (please bring your own mats), an original diecut machine, (with lots of dies) a Big Shot with some embossing folders, a ton of dies and much more to use during your stay.

The nearest Joann's, Michael's or Hobby Lobby stores are in Saginaw or Bay City about 35-40 miles away. However, there is a Walmart about 5 miles away that offers a decent selection of craft items. And for you knitters/quilters there is a yarn shop, Back Alley Fibers that you'll definitely want to check out! If you’re not wanting to make the trip, I will have some products for sale if you shall run out;  tape runners, a large variety of patterned and colored paper, a fair selection of embellishments, popup dots and some fun Live, Laugh, Love to Craft Retreat merchandise.

 is available to rent all year around. We have air for those of you that like to get away in the summer. There is also a nice deck (with a gas grill) to take a break from your crafts to get some fresh air!  We even have a fire pit if you want to call it quits on the crafts for the night to enjoy some s'mores! (S'more items and camp chairs not provided)
