Please call ahead so we know to expect you and can have all your materials ready and waiting for you when you arrive. Choose your project from our Gallery. As always, you choose the colors and details to make the project your own. Everyone has a CRE8-ive gene hiding inside. We will help you find it.

This allows one adult to come for 4 workshops or drop-in crafting sessions (regular price $140) or use it for multiple adults to work together at CRE8 Workshop for a discounted price. (Kids CRE8 4 Packs available for $80).

You choose your color scheme and make it your own. (Don’t worry, we will help you if you need it.).
You will leave with a project that you are proud to display or wear.

About Us
CRE8 Workshop was designed for both the avid crafter as a craft room away from home and the novice who thinks they do not have any crafting ability. Way back when we were kids, everyone had the ability to be creative. We created imaginative forts and stores and cool gifts for our families without any inhibitions. Those days did not need to end as you entered adulthood. If you think those creative bones were left back in grade school, a visit to CRE8 Workshop will help you to look deep inside and find your inner crafter (We promise you it’s in there). So, relax, no worries, have a glass of wine and join us for a night of fun crafting.
