The Creative Craft Room

12/04/2026

We are getting very close now !!! But still so much unpacking to be done !!!! Hopefully electrician will be here this week. Sleep is so overrated. lol. Left to be done…. Power, signs up, steps and deck outside of building, joinery to go in, boxes and remaining stock to be put out. In the meantime new to the shop is living light candles and global soap and also other neat wee gift ideas to compliment your card or craft you may be making for someone else. So exciting but on a dull day you have to look past the drips including me !!!

Wow it’s been a huge push this week and while the outside needs the finishing things the inside is completed enough for product to start being put out. So all of those boxes has to fit into all of the shelving etc. Thank goodness it is a long weekend. Lol. Thank you to everyone and to Award Movers who shifted everything today. Keep watching for updates

This is where you bring your own projects to complete or use the library, or the instore tools ie Cuttle bugs etc. This is also an opportunity share with other ladies tips and tricks or just come along for a chat and laugh.

Exciting times ahead as we announce a New Zealand brand being carried in store. 3Quarter Design are based in Morrinsville New Zealand and I am so happy to share we will have their papers and kits in store. Keep following as I update you on more coming to The Creative Craft Room.

Over the last couple of months I have been looking at what brands I will carry in store. I am happy to share that uniquely creative will be one of those. Check out their website on www.uniquelycreative.com.au for inspiration. And because a girl just has to shop, eftpos will be available in store to ease that shopping experience. Nothing like moving with the times. LOL.

Over the next couple of weeks there will be updates on what The Creative Craft room will have in store.
Allow me to introduce you to Creative Tool Rental. Over the years I have been blessed to have been able to collect an amazing amount of items. These will form part of a library that you can then rent for a week at a time or longer.  Crafting doesn’t need to be expensive. Watch out for this logo in store soon.
