Created an additional reel to the Not So Tuft Studio's mini-series. (Part 1.5)

Cy-Hawk Prediction...

You asked for a Cyclone rug…okay, maybe we realized we desperately needed one!

The missing ISU rug is officially in progress! We’re getting both teams ready before the rugs make their official Not So Tuft Cy-Hawk prediction. And let me tell you, it is highly scientific and not able to be reproduced.

Full rug reveal and predicted winner coming Friday! 🏈

Who do you think the rugs will choose—

Cyclones or Hawkeyes?

We have a little rivalry-week problem. We have an Iowa rug in the studio, but no ISU rug. 😬🏈

So come open the shop with me while I start fixing that!

Part 2: We reveal the finished rug and make the official Not So Tuft Studio game-day prediction.

Who are you rooting for—❤️💛 or 🖤💛?

From black walls and an empty room… to THIS.

There were holes to patch, walls to paint, yarn to wind, furniture to move, and a whole lot of work behind the scenes.

Slowly, this blank space started looking a little more like us. ❤️

But the best part wasn’t the fresh paint, the yarn wall, or seeing our name on the window.

It was seeing people walk through the doors, pick up a tufting gun, create something of their own, and leave holding a rug they made themselves.

THAT’S when it finally felt like Not So Tuft Studio. ❤️💙

Welcome to our new space.

Dream It. Tuft It. Love It.
