Country Butterfly Creations

Good morning. Have a great Monday everyone!

It's been really hard to keep it a secret but I'm so excited I can finally tell you that I'll be presenting on stage next September for the Coastal in the Country retreat!!!!! I'm so honored y'all!

🦋🎀 DESIGNER SPOTLIGHT #5 — OUR FINAL DESIGNER REVEAL!

We’ve made it to the FINAL designer announcement for the 2027 Coastal in the Country Retreat, and I think we’re ending this lineup with the PERFECT person! 🌊🤠

Please help me welcome Charlotte Dunkle of Country Butterfly Creations 🦋✨

If there’s one phrase that describes Charlotte’s design style, it’s…

🎀 MORE IS MORE! 🎀

Charlotte has a true love for creating whimsical, over-the-top wreaths packed with personality, layers, textures, ribbon, embellishments, and all those unexpected little details that make you stop scrolling and say, “OH MY GOODNESS… LOOK AT THAT!”

For Charlotte, bigger, brighter, and a little extra is ALWAYS better. If you think the design needs one more ribbon… ADD IT. One more embellishment? ABSOLUTELY.

And wreaths aren’t her only creative obsession!

Charlotte also creates the most adorable fake bakes — those sweet-looking creations that make you want to grab a fork before remembering THEY AREN’T REAL! 🍰🧁🍪

Her style is playful, nostalgic, whimsical, colorful, and unapologetically OVER THE TOP. Most importantly, Charlotte believes crafting should be FUN. There shouldn’t be limits on your imagination, and sometimes that crazy idea in your head is exactly the one you need to try.

I cannot WAIT to see what she dreams up for the Coastal in the Country stage! 🌊🤠

And with Charlotte’s announcement…

Charlotte, WELCOME to Coastal in the Country! 🦋🎀

Happy Monday! Have a blessed and productive day today! It's a little chilly this morning so I wish this was me right now instead of clocked into the day job. Anyone else wishing they were anywhere else besides work on this Monday? Lol

Happy Sunday! I hope you each have a wonderful and great day!!!

I couldn't let fall go by without making one more basket! Fall is definitely my favorite time of year! From the colors to sweater weather I love it! Let me know if you love Fall as well!

Who all am I going to get to meet next summer in Louisville????? I've been to tons of wreath events but this will be my very first fake bakers event!!!!!! I'm so excited y'all! I can't wait to meet each of you and hug your necks!!!!!

Who else is patiently waiting on the Fake Bakers Wonderland tickets to go on sale??????

Y'all don't want to miss this event!!!!! It's so amazing and the farm that it's held at is beautiful! You definitely want to grab your ticket before they're gone and they're selling fast!!!

🚨 OVER 75% SOLD OUT. THIS IS NOT A DRILL. 🚨

Y’all… if you are planning on coming to the 2027 Coastal in the Country Retreat, I am telling you right now:

GET. YOUR. TICKET. NOW. 😳🌊🤠

At the rate tickets are selling, I fully expect this event to be COMPLETELY SOLD OUT within the next few days.

And the craziest part?!

WE JUST OPENED TICKETS TO THE PUBLIC A FEW DAYS AGO. 🤯

I’m not saying “selling fast” just to create urgency. I’m watching these spots disappear, and I genuinely cannot believe how quickly this is happening.

We are already OVER 75% SOLD OUT.

That means there are VERY few seats left.

If you’ve been saying…

💭 “I’ll grab mine this weekend.”
💭 “I need to talk to my friend first.”
💭 “I’ll do it when I get paid.”
💭 “Surely I have a little more time…”

PLEASE DON’T ASSUME YOU DO.

Because once we hit capacity, THAT’S IT. The sold-out sign goes up, and registration closes.

🌊🤠 COASTAL IN THE COUNTRY RETREAT
📅 September 2–4, 2027
📍 Belgium, Wisconsin

Three days. An incredible group of designers. 3+ Make & Takes. 5+ guest designers. Meet & Greet. Game Night. An out-of-the-box swag bag. Food. Treats. Shopping. Surprises. And SO MUCH that I haven’t even announced yet.

And judging by what y’all are doing right now…

THIS EVENT WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE MUCH LONGER. 🚨

If you want to be in that room with us in 2027, secure your seat NOW before you’re looking at a SOLD OUT post wishing you had.

🌊🤠 DON’T WAIT. DON’T OVERTHINK IT. GRAB. YOUR. TICKET.

I cannot believe I’m already saying this… but we are officially on SELL-OUT WATCH. 😳🔥
