Magpie Fibers Presents
The Makers'
Retreat
Join Dami, Samm, and Kiki of Magpie Fibers on an adventure — a week in Belize to refill your creative cup. No classrooms — just adventure, inspiration, and a community of makers to share it with.
The Makers' Retreat
Eight Days of adventure, creativity, and connection - from the rainforest to the Caribbean Sea.
What This Is
Not a class.
An adventure.
We're doing something different. We wanted to create a space for makers to restore, renew and reclaim their creative selves. There are no required sessions, no homework, no pressure to produce. We're going to Belize to explore, connect, and make things — on our own terms.
Whether you knit, crochet, embroider, sew, paint, or make anything at all — if you're a maker who loves adventure and community, this trip was built for you.
Everything
taken care of.
7 Nights Accommodation
4 nights at Sleeping Giant Rainforest Lodge in the jungle. 3 nights at Barefoot Caye Caulker Hotel on the Caribbean Sea.
Meals & Experiences
Most meals included across both properties. Guided tours, cave tubing, snorkeling, ruins, sunset cruises — it's all on the itinerary.
Your Local Host
Evelyn Acevedo, born and raised in Belize, coordinates everything in-country from the moment you land to the moment you leave. 24/7 support throughout.
Maker Evenings
Every night after dinner we gather to make things together — knit, crochet, embroider, paint, felt. No classes, just community. Bring your project.
Welcome Swag Bag
A curated welcome gift packed with things we love. Good stuff. No spoilers.
The Magpie Crew
Dami, Samm, and Kiki are with you the whole week. It's basically a vacation with your favorite people from the internet — except in person.
The Week
7 days.
Two worlds.
Jungle first, then island. Four nights in the lush jungle and three nights on the Caribbean Sea. The kind of trip that stays with you.
Nights 1–4 · Jungle
Sleeping Giant
Rainforest Lodge
Deep in the Belizean rainforest on the Sibun River, surrounded by citrus orchards and ancient jungle. The award-winning Grove House restaurant sources directly from their 600-acre farm. This is what "off the grid" looks like when it's also luxury.
Nights 5–7 · Island
Barefoot
Caye Caulker Hotel
Steps from the Caribbean Sea on Caye Caulker, Belize's most beloved island. The island motto is "Go Slow" and they mean it. Crystal water, fresh seafood, swaying palms. The kind of place that makes you rethink everything about how you normally live.
Your Hosts
Come for Belize.
Stay for the company.
Dami, Samm, and Kiki will be with you the entire week — not as teachers or facilitators, just as fellow makers who happen to know a good adventure when they see one.
Founder of Magpie Fibers and the creative force behind this whole adventure. Dami stepped back from the spotlight a few years ago — this retreat is a pretty good reason to come back out.
The creative genius behind everything you see and love about Magpie Fibers online. If you follow us on Instagram, you already know Samm — and yes, she'll be making reels the whole time.
