Are you ready for the ultimate weekend of crafting, creativity, and hands-on fun? Mark your calendars because the Utah Pinners Conference is coming back to Utah from October 24-26, 2024, at the Mountain America Expo Center. Whether you’re a Pinterest queen or just love discovering new DIY projects, this event is perfect for you!

What is the Pinners Conference? Imagine a place where your Pinterest board comes to life. That’s exactly what Pinners is all about—bringing all those fabulous DIY ideas you’ve been pinning into reality. The conference features a two-day expo packed with creative booths, but the real magic happens in the interactive classes. These are designed to inspire, educate, and equip you with new skills in areas like:

• Crafting (think handmade décor, scrapbooking, and seasonal crafts)
• Beauty & fashion (makeup tutorials, style tips, and more)
• Cooking & baking (delicious recipes, meal planning hacks)
• Home décor (learn to turn your space into a personal oasis)

There are over 100 classes to choose from, so if you’re an experienced crafter or just getting started, you’ll find a class tailored to your interests.

The range of classes is absolutely amazing! From holiday wreath-making to DIY home projects, jewelry design, and even cookie decorating workshops—you name it, they’ve got it. Some of my personal faves this year include:

• Home Décor 101: Get pro tips on turning your house into a Pinterest-worthy space.
• Holiday Crafting: Learn how to make stunning DIY gifts and holiday décor.
• Beauty & Self-Care: There’s a whole lineup of beauty classes covering everything from skincare to makeup tutorials!

These classes aren’t just about watching; they’re fully interactive. You’ll be creating along with the instructors, so you get hands-on experience—and some fabulous goodies to take home! I am so excited about so many, I just need to narrow down my selections as I don’t have enough time to take as many as I want!

If classes weren’t enough, there’s also an incredible vendor market filled with the latest in crafts, home décor, beauty, and fashion. Whether you’re looking for unique supplies, ready-made products, or new ideas, you’ll find so many treasures on the expo floor. Trust me, you’ll want to set aside plenty of time for shopping and browsing.

Take a look at last year’s conference to get an idea of what I am talking about.

Getting in on all this crafty goodness is super easy! You can buy tickets and register for your favorite classes directly on the Pinners Conference Utah website. Make sure to sign up early because some classes fill up fast, especially the popular ones!

Quick Tip: If you’re planning to attend multiple days or take several classes, consider the VIP package for extra perks like swag bags and early class sign-up access.

If you’re coming for the hands-on workshops, shopping, or just to spark some new creative inspiration, the Pinners Conference is the place to be. It’s a great way to spend a weekend with friends, learning something new and creating amazing memories (and crafts!).

See you at the Mountain America Expo Center on October 24-26, 2024!
