The Crafting Cottage began it's journey in a beautiful 1916 historic Dutch Colonial house located at 11915 East Corning Road in Corning, New York We opened our doors on May 20, 2003. Back then, we were five rooms filled with an assortment of basic needs for scrapbookers and rubber stampers.
Over the course of the next few years we expanded the store at the original site. We even renovated the old Carriage House into a beautifully new spacious classroom.
In the Spring of 2007, we expanded by opening a satellite store on historic Market Street in downtown Corning, NY. At the Market Street location (103 West Market Street) you will find a dedicated bead shop on the first floor. We also had housed a "mini" version of The Crafting Cottage on the 2nd floor until the spring of 2008.
In June of 2008, we moved out of the second floor and into our very own building just a couple blocks down from our bead shop (38 East Market Street). A wonderful yarn shop, Wooly Minded, moved above our Bead Shop.
On December 31, 2008, we sold the beading division to Beth Cole, who has now renamed it, Beth's Bead Shop & Gallery. The store is still located at the 103 West Market Street address.
In June of 2009, we made the decision to simplify all of our lives by moving the East Corning store to our 38 E. Market Street store.
The Crafting Cottage today consists of the following:
