I’ve got some exciting news, craft buddies! Courtney (Creative on the Cheap), Jennifer (Little Bit of Calm & Crazy), Shannon (The Daily DIYer & The Cozy Christmas Cottage), and I will be BACK at the 2024 Pinners Conference in Fort Worth, Texas, September 20 – 21, 2024 at the Will Rogers Memorial Center!
We had the best time at the 2023 event we decided to do it again – and we want to meet you there! On this page you will find all the up-to-date details on where we will be and how you can connect with us each of the three days we’ll be at Pinners.
What is the Pinners Conference?
It’s two great events in one. It’s a conference featuring 100+ Pinterest-based classes taught by amazing experts. Think about your favorite YouTube videos happening LIVE while you craft along! It’s also a trade show with 200 amazing businesses with booths covering DIY, crafts, cooking, photography, self-improvement, party planning, scrapbooking, holiday, beauty, fashion and more! We had a BLAST in 2023 and can’t wait to go back this year! Click here for answers to more FAQs about the Pinners Conference from the event organizers.
Be sure to check back, I’ll update this page should anything change in the coming weeks until we head to Ft. Worth!

THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 19th – VIP Pinners Welcome Party
Before the event kicks off, the VIP Pinners ticket holders are invited to a fun VIP party! The theme for 2024 is Casino Night – Pinners style! Their website says: wear your fancy pants casino dress or casino wear. And the four of us will be there too!
We will be at the party enjoying all the festivities, so feel free to come up and say hello! We’d love to meet you!!
FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 20th – Pinners Day 1
The Pinners Show Floor is open from 10:00 a.m. – 8:00 p.m. on Day 1 and we’ll be around the event that day.
Pinners has given us a space for an informal crafty meet-up on Friday, September 20th. We will be in Classroom 5 (opposite the show floor, see map) from 9:30 – 10:00 am before the show opens to the public at 10:00 am. That way, if you can only come one day – there’s a time for us all to connect! We’ll have merch and other goodies, and we’d love to see you!
SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 21st – Pinners Day 2
On top of attending – we’re teaching a DIY class! Courtney, Shannon, Jennifer, & I will be hosting a craft party at the event so we can DIY together LIVE on Saturday, September 21st at 1:00 pm in Classroom 1! This is how it is listed on the website so you can find it: Room 1 – DIY Whimsical Wooden Pumpkin – by DIY YouTubers Shannon, Courtney, Jennifer & Whitney ($25) Our class is sold out for pre-registration, but you can come by and wait in the standby line if you’d like to try and get in!
More about the class: Let’s create a beginner-friendly wood pumpkin decor piece! You’ll paint, assemble, and customize with your own unique embellishments so that you can easily style it in your home for fall.
If you purchase a kit ($25), you also get a collector’s tote bag and entry into some fun giveaways we’ll be doing throughout the class!
If you want to join us, you’ll want to be sure to grab your tickets because that allows you to pre-register for the class. There are limited seats and it did sell out fast last year! As of Friday, September 13, 2024 – our class is sold out for pre-registraiton.
PLEASE NOTE: To attend the Pinners event, you’ll need to purchase an admission ticket. To attend our class specifically, you’ll also need to pre-register online via the link provided when you bought your tickets.

If you need help registering for classes as part of Pinners, ensure you’ve purchased a ticket first and then please email [email protected], and they will help you get registered for the class(es) you want.
What if your class says “sold out”?
If you are only coming on Saturday to Pinners and our class is showing sold out – you can still stop by and wait in the stand-by line. Last year, we had full pre-registration, but then some didn’t show, so we were able to have stand-by folks get in. So you never know!
Also, if that doesn’t work – we will be outside the room after the class so we can connect then. Just stop by the walkway outside of Classroom 1 around 2:00p on Saturday and we’ll be around after we wrap and clean up our class.
