Hosting shouldn't feel like work.

Planning a get-together should be just as enjoyable as attending one. But between choosing an activity, finding supplies, preparing everything and cleaning up afterward, hosting can start to feel like a job.

Crafty Hour takes care of the creative details and brings a fun, guided experience right to your gathering. No shopping lists, no complicated instructions, and no missing your own party.

Just good company, a little creativity, and something special to take home.

The best part isn't what you make

It's who you make it with.

It's the conversations between brushstrokes. The laughter when someone's project takes an unexpected turn. The friend you finally made plans with. The people you didn't know when you arrived but know a little better when you leave.

More memories with your people.

Good questions

Everything you'd want to know before booking.

What if my friends aren't crafty?

Perfect. Every project is designed for beginners and finishes inside the hour. You don't need to be artistic or get it "right"; most of the fun is in the making.

Do I have to buy any supplies?

No. We bring every material, tool and table cover, set it all up, and clean up afterward. You just provide tables, chairs and a little space.

Do you come to my house?

Yes. Private parties happen at your home or a venue you choose around Jacksonville. Travel is a flat fee based on distance, starting at $25.

Is one hour enough?

It is. Projects are planned to finish in 45 to 55 minutes, which leaves time to settle in, snap a group photo and wrap up. Want more time? Add 30 minutes for $50.

What if someone cancels?

A 50% deposit holds your date, and the final guest count and balance are due 7 days before the party. Once we've bought your materials the deposit is nonrefundable, but we'll do our best to reschedule.

Can I come to a community event alone?

Absolutely. Lots of guests come solo. The projects are designed to get conversation going, so you'll leave knowing a few more people than when you arrived.

Are food and drinks included?

At community events, your ticket covers the craft, materials and instruction. Food and drinks are purchased from the hosting venue.

About Crafty Hour

Creativity is better together.

We believe some of the best moments happen when people come together to make something. Not because everyone is artistic, but because creating gives us a reason to slow down, put our phones aside, and enjoy each other's company.

We bring thoughtfully planned, hands-on craft experiences to private gatherings and local businesses throughout Jacksonville, so everyone, including the host, can enjoy themselves.

Your next favorite memory might start with a little creativity.

Tell us about your group and we'll help you pick the perfect craft.
