There is so much to see, do and the culinary scene is fabulous. Follow our guide for where to stay, where to play and what to eat! How did we choose St. Well, I live about 30 minutes outside of downtown. My husband and I decided to move to STL about a year and a half ago to make his travel schedule easier and we love it. First, I needed to find a place for us to stay. There was no way I was going to put my friends up at my house with my four kids running around.
Talk about not relaxing! After looking into it, it was exactly what I wanted. When you book a room, you pick the color you want. They have yellow, red, green and blue and everything in the room is that color. I chose for us to stay in green as those are proclaimed the rooms for the ultimate relaxation and that was my biggest goal for the weekend. The hotel has modern art everywhere you look, a fabulous restaurant and a rooftop bar that has a gorgeous view of the city.
It turned out to be so fun and we loved being able to take the candles home as souvenirs to remember the trip. Since it was such a great experience, I wanted to plan something equally unique to do. So, after some research, I decided to sign us gals up for a chunky knit throw making class at AR Workshop Chesterfield.
Chesterfield was our meeting point upon arriving. It is about 30 minutes outside of the city. Perhaps we should not have had a glass of wine beforehand, because it took a few of us longer than it should have to catch on to the pattern, but soon enough, we were cranking our blankets out like machines!
It was also fun to choose the colors and patterns of the blankets so we each left with a throw that matched our home decor. The blankets turned out great and we made sure to take them to our hotel room to cuddle with in the mornings while we chatted and had our coffee!
