Welcome to The Craft Studio
Hi, my name is Ruth
I have been a papercrafter and stamper for over 30 years. I opened The Craft Studio in 2010, with the aim of combining my love of crafts with a teaching element.
This website is designed to showcase many of the products stocked by the Craft Studio, which I have collated as collections that you can explore below. You will also find details of workshops we run and events we attend.
You can get in touch and read more about me on the Contact page and find out more about our two locations in St Austell on the Premises page.
