meet ana!
Hi, I’m Ana! I’m a wife, a mom, and a creator who believes a little light goes a long way. I started Lovely Little Light because I saw how many women were running on empty, and I wanted a place where we could slow down, make something with our hands, and remember who we are in Christ. Whether you’re here for Creators Club, a workshop, or just a little encouragement, there’s a seat at the table for you. Pull up a chair, friend. We’re so glad you’re here.

Sometimes one creative night just isn’t enough
You might just find your new favorite thing.
Since 2019, women have gathered with us at breweries, wineries, coffee shops, boutiques, and beyond to learn from local makers, try new things, and create with their own two hands.
Creators Club is where ladies get to keep trying something new EVERY MONTH. Each six-month semester is built around a theme, with a new hands-on experience every month and the same group of women gathering around the table.
look what they made!
BRING LOVELY LITTLE LIGHT TO YOU
Your people. Your gathering. An experience they'll actually remember.
Skip the predictable group activity. Our private workshops give your people something hands-on to take home — a new skill, a beautiful keepsake, and the kind of memory that beats another round of games. You provide the space and the people, we take care of everything else.
Private events are available throughout Eastern and Central Iowa, with additional locations considered depending on the event and availability.
Tell us a little about your group in a short form below and we'll help you choose a creative experience that fits. We'll take care of the project, supplies, and instruction so you can enjoy being there, too.

LOVELY LITTLE LIGHT RETREATS
More room to breathe, create, and reconnect.
Every once in a while, we make space for something slower.
Our retreats are an invitation to step away from the noise for a little longer. We periodically offer transformative experiences with a small group of women that is intentionally designed to reconnect you with your Creator and reignite your joy. We want to come alongside you to nurture your soul and embrace the beauty of creativity together.
Join the waitlist to be notified when the next retreat is launching.
