Hello and Welcome to Little Button Craft!

HELLO, I’M SHELBY-

You might know me as the Craft Wizard. I’ve been fortunate to watch Little Button Craft grow into something completely unique over the last 9 years. We have worked with over 250 artists within 100 miles of Rochester and recently expanded our offerings of craft classes and free events.

Coming to Roc from a larger city left me missing the spaces I could walk to in my neighborhood and hang out while also checking out new goods from local artists. When I moved to the South Wedge I fell in love with the neighborhood and everyone in it. There’s a strong sense of community and acceptance here that I have never found or experienced anywhere else. I got the opportunity to take over the LBC space and have been doing my best to showcase the local Rochester handmade goods scene. Through this showcase, I aim to provide creative inspiration, as well as an accessible, affordable, and approachable environment to help the Rochester artistic community grow.

I’m excited to welcome you to our little crafty spot to introduce you to new artists, help new artists get their products into stores and seen, and host events you’ll enjoy solo or with friends! The City of Rochester is rich with fantastic art. Rochester is also known for its heart. With that in mind, the mission for Little Button Craft was born: Find a way to marry the idea of a city full of unique crafts and its love for connection and community.

The word "craft" can mean a whole lot. To the team here at Little Button, it means anything that's created by hand. This can include knitting, illustration, photography, needle felting, woodwork, and so much more!

Whether you're a writer, painter, sculptor, quilter, engineer, or an admirer of those who create; you are welcome. Craft does not discriminate by any means. Any individual of any characteristic can create, and through our ability to create, we can craft a community that will continue to grow.

I hope to meet you soon!

Shelby, Owner, Little Button Craft
