Lake Life Craft Studio

Busy day over here at Lake Life Craft Studio!

We’ve officially started moving in and bringing all the ideas to life… and let’s just say there’s still LOTS of work left to do!

Today’s little sneak peek: this adorable sand castle pottery piece that will be available to paint this summer 🏖️

We can’t wait to show you more as everything starts coming together. Stay tuned… the fun is just getting started!

Do you know how hard it is to pull an entire craft studio together while being in the 8th grade? 😂

Well… let me tell you…
it’s just as hard being the mom of the 8th grader 😅

The funny part?
We aren’t even fully in the space yet.

So right now our lives consist of crafting supplies everywhere, random displays in the house, constant brainstorming, and approximately 4,000 “Wait… what if we also did THIS?!” conversations a day.

But little by little, it’s coming together ✨

Here are a few sneak peeks of things we’re working on and hoping to have at Lake Life Craft Studio 💕

We open in just 11 days and we promise there will be something for everyone!

🌸 FLOWER FRIDAYS ARE BLOOMING 🌸

At Lake Life Craft Studio…
Our brand new Bloom Bar is here starting Friday, June 5th!

We’ve teamed up with Sage & Petals LLC to bring you fresh, beautiful stems so you can build your own bouquet—your way.

Pick your flowers.
Wrap them up.
Stay and craft while you’re here 🎨
Leave with something beautiful (and probably a few photos too )

🕚 Fridays | 11–4 beginning June 5th
📍 Lake Life Craft Studio: 8719 Lake St. Port Austin, Mi

Bring a friend, your kids, or just yourself…
because honestly, flowers + crafting = therapy 🌿💕

Our house currently looks like a craft studio explosion and we aren’t even mad about it 🤣

Faith has been hard at work creating samples, figuring out pricing, and getting inventory ready for the shop—learning all the behind-the-scenes that go into making something special for you all.

We are loving these barn quilts.
They might be one of our favorite additions yet!

And bonus win—
we found the power cord to the Cricut!!!!!
Which means stencils are back in action for doormats and door hangers!

Now we need your help 👇
What kinds of crafts would YOU love to see when you stop in?

✨ DIY kits?
✨ Seasonal decor?
✨ Farm-inspired pieces?
✨ Kids crafts?

Drop your ideas below—we’re building this with YOU in mind 💛

 We’ve heard some of the disappointment about not being able to get your same breakfast sandwiches here like the Café 53 North days 💛

Just to clarify—Lake Life Craft Studio is what will be opening in that space 🎨
A completely different kind of experience!

BUT good news… Sunshine Café & Bakery ☀️will be opening elsewhere in town, so you’ll still have a spot to grab those delicious breakfast favorites!

With so many new businesses popping up, it’s shaping up to be an amazing summer in Port Austin—and we can’t wait to be part of it!

We hope to see you soon!
