Description
"Embroidery traditionally has been] regarded as women’s work and the teaching of embroidery as a means of preparing young women for domesticity." Well we say, f*** that s***. Embroider as art; embroider because it's fun; embroider because you want to embroider.

Our Space
Located less than 10 minutes from downtown, CRAFT can seat 30 crafters and accommodate up to 50 standing guests. Our studio features an open concept design that encourages creativity and provides easy access to an extensive library of DIY tools and supplies. For larger events, tables and shelves can be rearranged to create plenty of room to mix and mingle.
Our Story
After years of storing craft supplies under her bed and making last minute trips to the art store for a pinch of some specific shade of green glitter, Eli realized what Austin needed: a place where anyone–from crafting hoarders to rookies–could make a mess and create. “Why not make a lovely space,” she thought, “like a gym, but for making stuff. Instead of treadmills, we’ll share paint, glue guns, googly eyes, and wood scraps. People can show up and work on any project they want. It will be Austin’s craft room.”
And that’s exactly what she did. Since opening in 2013, CRAFT has become Austin’s creative hub for DIY crafting, workshops, and events.
