A Note for Makers:
To make sure you have plenty of time to refocus and finish your project without feeling rushed, we ask that you arrive at least one hour before closing. Please choose a project that fits within the time remaining so you can enjoy the full experience.

Parking:
Parking is easy! There is a large public lot located directly behind our building, and limited street parking is available right out front.

Coming with a Crew?
We love hosting groups! While walk-ins are always welcome, letting us know you're coming helps us make a plan for your visit. If you're coming with a group, include your group name in your booking and we will happily save a cluster of seats so you can create together.

The Local Advantage

Is it better than ordering from Etsy?

Why trust a generic algorithm with your family’s legacy? Unlike big online marketplaces, we bring over eight years of professional laser fabrication experience to every project. We don’t just 'hit print'—we manually review every logo, handwriting sample, and design to ensure the highest precision. When you work with Fab Five, you’re getting expert oversight, not an automated process.

Premium Materials You Can Touch

Online 'bargains' often mean mystery materials. At Fab Five Design we use only premium, sustainably sourced hardwoods like Walnut, Cherry, and Maple, along with high-quality slate and leather. Because we are local to Mount Pleasant, you can see and feel the quality before you buy. No thin veneers, no imitation wood—just authentic materials built to last.

No Shipping Stress, All Community Impact

Skip the 'porch pirates,' shipping delays, and transit damage. By choosing Fab Five Design, your order is ready for convenient local pickup right here in our studio. Best of all, your purchase stays 100% local, supporting our schools, our student workers, and our community programs. We offer a reliable, personal alternative to the uncertainty of big online shops.
