Back Stories
Welcome to the very first episode of Crafted Spaces! In Back Stories, you'll meet the three crafters at the heart of the series — Mary, Mackenzie, and Keisha — and hear how each one fell in love with paper crafting and outgrew her old space.
Every great studio starts with a story. These three found their way to paper crafting from very different places, but they share the same spark: a hobby that grew until it needed a room of its own. As you'll hear, the goal was never just more storage — it was to create a space that reflects who they are. No matter where you create, let your studio be an embellishment within your home.
