Where are our retired party girls in their mid-30s at?!?
If you’re anything like our founder, then you’re chasing kids, trying to move up in your career, or just trying to complete a never ending to-do list. Which also means you’re probably home in pjs before 7pm and are happily spending Friday and Saturday nights on the couch! Not because you don’t love a good time.. or a night out anymore. But because life moves sooooo fast that still, quiet moments are now a luxury that you don’t get much of these days!!
This month we’ve been really leaning into the memories of summer camp and the freedom it gave kids to just *be*!! We remember those few weeks of summer camp fondly as a period when time slowed down and you were able to rediscover your interests and your abilities. A few decades past childhood we’re all in need of a little more permission to slow down and reconnect (to outside and yourself)!
That’s why we shared a mock-itinerary for anyone looking to create a summer camp vibe at home one weekend. That schedule gives you permission to carve out some time, as summer ends, to be a little more intentional. But if you’re looking for something creative to take up your time one night at home (while comfortably in pjs) you should try one of the following activities.
Below are 3 creative activities for a night-in that will have you feeling like as free and calm as a kid at summer camp:
Scrapbook travel memories with the junk you collected
This is such a creative and personal way to capture the sights, stories, and special moments from your trips! These can include things like photos, tickets, maps, notes, or really any “junk” you bring back from your trip. And then for years to come, you can relive your journey through this timeless keepsake.

Finally putting those stickers you collected to good use
From trips to purchase, and quotes to your love for teams— we know you have a collection of stickers that you’ve been saving “for the right moment”. News flash: there’s no such thing as the right moment. Take those pretty stickers out of your drawer and finally display them: your laptop, your suitcase, your work notebook… SOMETHING!!! Pick a surface and decorate. Promise you won’t regret it.
