I’m your host for Laughter & Memories crafting and scrapbooking events.
Once a month, we move into a spacious hotel ballroom for a 3-day weekend of crafting fun, comaraderie sharing, and … well, Laughter & Memories!
In November 2026 we’ll meet at the Best Western Plus Thousand Oaks Inn.
In 2027 we move to the Grand Vista Simi Valley!
Here’s How It Works:
1
Reserve your table for 1, 2, or all 3 days. Hurry! Only 37 tables available!
2
Bring your tools and materials and plans for your craft or scrapbook project.
3
Be ready for lots of laughter & take home lots of memories!
Frequently Asked Questions:
Where are your events located for now?

How many crafters can attend?
Our scrapbooking and crafting room holds 40 tables each day, 50 starting in January. Each crafter buys a table or as many tables as they need to do their crafting.
When are the scrapbooking events held?
The Laughter and Memories Events are held over 3 days – Thursday, Friday, and Saturday – once each month. The specific weekend depends on the availability of the hotel. Our next 2 events are listed a little further down the page.
Do I have to attend all 3 days in order to register?
No! You can sign up for 1, 2, or all 3 days of the weekend. If you can only make Saturday, reserve a table for just Saturday and join us! If you have a big project, by all means, book all 3 days and get that project done! If you book consecutive days, don’t worry about wasting time packing up at night and setting up in the morning. Our room is locked overnight. Of course, that’s up to you.
What are the hours?
The Laughter and Memories Events run all day. Thursday: 9am-10pm | Friday: 8am-10pm |Saturday: 8am- 9pm
I have a long drive. Can you get me a deal on a room?
The deadline for deals for November at the The Best Western Plus Thousand Oaks Inn has passed, but you can still line up a deal for your stay in 2027 at the Grand Vista. Just call them and mention the Laughter & Memories Scrapbooking weekend for the best rate. Call 805-583-2000. If you’re reading this from your smart phone, just click the button to call the hotel.
Do you fill up fast?
Yes we do! Our tables go quickly, so if you’re interested, book now!
We have a waiting list, so if you see that we’re sold out, get on the list and we’ll email you if a table opens up.
How much does a craft event cost?
The Laughter and Memories Events are sold individually by day. Each day costs $50 per table. Grab as many tables as you need. Once you choose the date(s) and the quantity of tables, you’ll register and pay the total.
Do you supply scrapbooking supplies?
We supply a table, chair, and electric outlet, and you supply the rest: your materials, tools, anything you’ll need. But we do have some basic supplies available on-site that you can purchase in case you run out.
Can you let me know when the next event is?
Join our Laughter and Memories Mailing list and we’ll keep you in the know about all things L&M!
Can I give a scrapbooking and crafting event as a gift?
What a thoughtful gift for your wife, your mom, or a favorite crafter in your life! Yes, you can buy a gift certificate for them. Put enough on there for the number of days they may need, and maybe a little more for supplies, and give the gift of creativity!
