Like many people before parenthood, Crystal Crews used to be tidy. It wasn’t until her first child became an avid little maker who wanted to keep every bit of trash to transform it into something new that she learned to embrace the mess. “It completely changes you,” she says with a laugh. “I am no longer afraid of messes at all.”
After years of experience running an in-home daycare and several arts-and-crafts pop-ups at Tower Groves Farmers’ Market, Rockwell Beer Garden’s Farmers’ Market, and the Macklind Days festival, the now-mom of three is ready to help other families experience the same worry-free creative process in her new makerspace: Macklind Make & Play (5353 Devonshire), slated to open February 1 in the Macklind Business District at the corner of Devonshire and Macklind.
