Tutuland Boston

Tutuland in Allston lets you spend an afternoon making the rug instead of shopping for one. Choose a design, work with yarn and fabric, and take home a finished piece if you complete it during your session. Simple shapes are easier for a first attempt, and the studio estimates about three hours for a typical rug, with larger projects taking longer. Book ahead, especially on weekends, when walk-in tufting is not offered. Other projects include acrylic pouring and decorating phone cases or mirrors with decoden cream and charms. Two people can share a rug project, making it an option for a date with something to show for the afternoon.
