Thursdays: 11am – 8pm
Saturdays: 10am – 6pm (including Christmas Eve)

So, rest easy — we’ve got gifts for everyone on your list, and we’re getting new items in every day!
It’s official: holiday crafting season has begun at The Craft Lounge. We’re starting off things with this fun wreath ornament. These little guys are easy to make and sure dress up a tree (or even a coat, if you put a pin on the wreath!). So join us anytime between 12:00pm – 5:00pm on Saturday, November 12, and we’ll show you how to make a few of these for yourself. $20
Monday, November 14, 3:00pm – 4:00pm $25
Our Green-Crafting Guru, Ms. Karen, is back and she’s giving new life to bike tires and extra-large pop tabs. Join us as she shows us how to transform these usually discarded materials into a fashion-forward belt and headband. Save the Earth, one craft at a time!
Needles and thread aren’t just for fabric! Drop in anytime between 12:00am – 5:00pm on Saturday, October 1, and we’ll show you how to make one-of-a-kind embroidered greeting cards worthy of framing. Use the patterns we provide or design your own. No sewing experience necessary. ($20 for 3 cards)
This weekend, our Drop-in Saturday craft is one that’s fun for kids and grown-ups alike. That’s right, we’re making hula hoops — great outdoor plaything for kids and the hottest new fitness craze for adults! Drop in on Saturday, September 24th between 12:00pm – 5:00pm, and we’ll show you how to make one for yourself. $20
