Cathy’s Crafts Lucknow

Forty years ago, Cathy started making crafts to make some extra money for her family for Christmas. Eventually, she started renting empty storefronts in Lucknow during the holiday season. She was able to retire from her career after 34 years and open a store year-round on the main street in Lucknow. The store now offers her crafted goods, home decor and antiques.

Cathy, who has had the store since 2018, specializes in making wreaths and garlands, and even offers custom orders when she finds the time. The store is a feast for the eyes, with attractive full-to-bursting displays that are reminiscent of the “I SPY” books. Offering both seasonal and everyday decor pieces, from wall, mantle or table, to indoor and outdoor, both real and faux foliage and plants, from soft furnishings to furniture pieces, either antique and modern, in a variety of styles and aesthetics, you’re sure to find something that has to come home with you.

Cathy says she has felt the warmth from her community, and enjoys the downtown environment of main street Lucknow, and says she has enjoyed meeting her customers over the past seven years, including locals and those just passing through. 

Enjoy spending a blustery winter day by exploring the vast collection, getting inspired with your own home decor projects, finding the perfect piece for that empty space, or finally getting your hands on the perfect “WELCOME” sign for your front porch. Maybe your Christmas decorations are already packed away for next year (or you’re about to… soon… when you have a minute… any day now…), but Spring is coming - eventually - and you’ll have to swap the red Buffalo Plaid for the florals before you know it. 

Cathy’s Crafts is located at 603 Campbell St. in Lucknow. Open Thursday, Friday and Saturday from 10:00am to 5:00pm. Visit Cathy’s Crafts Lucknow on Facebook or www.cathyscraftlucknow.com for more information or to get in contact.
