PLEASE READ - 2025 UPDATE!
As many of you know, my husband and I had owned the building in which The Creative Room has operated over the past 5 years. On 1/7/25 we passed the keys of the building on to a new buyer and with that, The Creative Room has officially closed its doors for business. It was not an easy decision to make, but it is one we made with careful consideration. I know this is the best next step for our family and I’m looking forward to seeing what the new building owners have in store for this tiny corner of Chepachet.
It is really hard to say goodbye! The Creative Room began as a simple idea in my head and I’m so grateful, with the help of my husband, that I was able to bring it to life. We purchased the building in 2019 and had to do a major overhaul. Reflecting on this journey, I’d like to attach some photos below. It was truly a family affair. Looking back, our four children seemed like such babies!
The past five years was awesome. Especially during COVID, The Creative Room brought such joy into my life. I had the best customers! Customers became friends and I truly have felt the tangible effects of “shopping local”. My loyal customers, you know who you are! Thank you for supporting me, recommending me, and making these past 5 years a success. Special thanks to my Saint Philip School family who have been unbelievably supportive. I wouldn’t change a moment of this story, not even a minute.
The Creative Room is just a brushstroke on the canvas of my life. I’m eager to see what the ultimate Creator has in store for our family next. If you know us well enough, you know… there will be another adventure! There so much more I could say, but I will leave you with one final question:
Life is a blank canvas, what will you create?
See you soon. ♥️
