About The Workshop

A bright, open space where creativity and community come together

The Workshop started as a dream: to create a space that felt like home. A place where every gift tells a story, every DIY project sparks joy, and every visitor feels like a friend.

What began as a big idea six years ago has grown into something truly magical—thanks to the incredible community that walks through our doors and makes this space feel like home.

good vibes, good people. Crafts + Cupcakes.

We’re proud to call The Dalles home, and even prouder to share our space with other woman-owned businesses inside The Shops on 2nd.

Stop in to pick out a gift, start a new craft, or treat yourself to from our in-house bakeries and coffee shop.

Meet Our Team

Here to help you find your next favorite thing—and have fun doing it.

Lindsey is the founder of The Workshop and the creative force behind everything you see here—from the curated gift selection to the hands-on DIY bar.

What started as a dream to build a space rooted in creativity and community has grown into a bustling, welcoming shop that’s part retail, part craft studio, and 100% heart.

She’s also the founder of Woodsy Craft Co., our in-house brand of nature-inspired DIY kits. And she just opened the doors to her newest venture, Firefly Boutique. Firefly is a thoughtfully curated women's boutique just down the street from The Workshop.

Say hello to Amber, our shop manager—and her little shadow, Miss Penny Lane. Amber is here every day we’re open, and she’s ready to help you pick out the perfect gift, craft kit, or something sweet to treat yourself.

Stop by and ask her how she ended up in The Dalles—it’s a great story!

We can't wait to see you!
