A little bit about us....
The Craft Cabin E4 & CM23 is a fun, therapeutic and educational experience for children and adults alike; catering for all ages!
We are a family run business that opened in 2012, when we decided we wanted to create a place that families could enjoy quality time together. The whole family can enjoy being creative together, or adults can relax with a coffee, whilst the children get crafting! Why have the mess at home when you can visit The Craft Cabins?
In 2012 we opened The Craft Cabin E4 in Chingford and in 2019 we opened our second shop – The Craft Cabin CM21 in Sawbridgeworth. We outgrew this shop so in December 2021 we opened The Craft Cabin CM23 in Bishops Stortford.
In both our shops in Bishops Stortford and Chingford we offer Pottery Painting which we can fire in our kiln or we have a range that you can take home on the day! We also offer teddy making, bag and T Shirt design, wooden crafts, canvasses, jewellery making and more!
The Craft Cabins are always adding new crafts for you to try – and we run many events in the shops, as well as out in the local communities.
We also sell a huge range of craft kits and personalised items online! The staff are always busy making lots of party supplies and gifts, ready to post out for you to enjoy at home and for special occasions. We enjoy coming up with new ideas and products, so we can always offer you a variety of great crafts and gifts.
We could go on and on, but maybe it’s best you simply pop in and see for yourself.
You will receive a warm welcome by a member of The Craft Cabin Team, who are always happy to help and answer any questions.
We look forward to seeing you soon!

Best place for Birthday 5 stars Mona Awad2025-02-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After doing some research I came across this lovely place. It's a great concept, kids get to choose a ceramic figure to paint whilst the parents enjoy a brew. Staff are friendly and attentive, prices are reasonable too.
