New craft store/workshop space in Teele

[turil.livejournal.com]

I don't know anything about this place but the idea sounds interesting: selling recycled materials turned into new and interesting things by local artists, and encouraging other folks to use recycled materials to make new things too:

CraftLab

craftLAB is a experimental craft studio/retail space. craftLAB opened in 2011 by Suzanne Piubeni.

craftLAB is bringing back the designer/customer relationship that is missing in many big box retailers and mass produced products. Most of craftLABS products are designed in store and/or from local artists. craftLAB also holds weekly/monthy workshops to encourage the creation of new product designs.

They are up on Broadway a couple blocks up from Foodmaster, near the Arlington line.

And apparently they are having a grand opening during Somerville Open Studios (which is this coming weekend, if you hadn't been reminded yet. :-)
