Lucky Star at Wander Inn

NEW DATE – JUNE 18-20, 2021

We are thrilled to announce another Lucky Star event at Wander Inn!

June 18-20, 2021

We have rented out the entire inn to bring Lucky Star to Round Top once again and it’s happening at the gorgeous Wander Inn at Junk Gypsy headquarters in legendary Round Top, Texas! We’re kickin’ things off right on Friday night with “Caftans & Queso” hosted by Jennifer Perkins of Creative Queso Podcast where it’s all about the business of being creative and the creativity behind running a business! We’ll mix, we’ll mingle, we’ll dip some chips, and all while donning our favorite caftans. It’ll be a great way to get to know everyone… and did I mention QUESO??! Then on Saturday, there will be fun creative workshops, fresh tasty food, great conversation, and live music around the campfire. Come for the weekend or just for the day… this will be the perfect spring road trip/girl’s weekend/mini vacay for you and your friends. We hope you’ll join us!

Who are the instructors and what workshops are they teaching?

Lucky Star founder/director Lisa Field has put together a talented line-up of shining stars to bring you an array of creative workshops.

We’ll start the day under the giant oak trees as Tiffany Schreiner of Yoga Central Texas leads us in “Root Down to Rise Up”, a gentle stretch to set our intentions and get our creative juices flowing.
Then we’ll all gather in the Lucky Star tent and make “Alcohol Ink Coasters” with Lisa Field.

After lunch, we’ll have two sessions in which you will get to choose to participate in two out of the three following workshops:

- Design a floral crown fit for a gypsy queen in “Fresh Floral Crowns” with Emily Jacks
- Learn the art of free-hand doodling with embroidery floss in a mini version of her popular “Zen Embroidery” with Kathianne Williams
- This is not your mama’s journal! Make a journal using thrift store and flea market finds in “Junk Journals” with Jennifer Perkins.
Then our very own Rosie the Riveter, Kate O’Brien will share her skills and guide us through a tomahawk throwing workshop
And last but not least, we’ll all be participating in a collaborative project to commemorate the day.

After dinner, we’ll gather ’round the campfire with Lucky Star RoCkstAr/musical genius/extraordinaire, Mandy Rowden of Girl Guitar Austin! The perfect end to a perfect day! There will be something for everyone and for all levels of skill and creativity. There is certainly no need to consider yourself an artist/creative/or even the slightest bit crafty to come and join the fun!

**BONUS!! If there is enough interest, Tiffany Schreiner, will lead a Sunday morning yoga class with a view of the Junk Gypsy cow pasture.

What is

Art Camp?

Lucky Star is our longer annual event which takes place each fall in Hunt, Texas. It’s a five-day women’s art and whole living sleepaway camp set in the hill country of Texas. Women travel from all over the country to take in the beauty of the surroundings, attend creative workshops, make new friends, listen and share, eat good food, laugh ’til they cry, sing around the campfire, gaze at the stars, and just be in the moment. The camp takes place at Camp Waldemar, a girl’s summer camp that has been in operation since 1928. Imagine rock cabins built into the hillside overlooking the cypress-lined banks of the Guadalupe River. It’s dreamy, it’s fun, and it’s happening again this November 3rd through 7th. We hope you’ll have so much fun at our weekend event that you’ll leave wanting to sign up for more!
