When it comes to empowering others to create Pinterest quality works of art that are both displayable and giftable, AR Workshop Ferndale is the place to go in Michigan for hands-on crafting! There, you’ll find a treasure trove of easy-to-DIY projects, with new projects added frequently! Located at 207 E. 9 Mile Road – Ferndale, MI 48220, this is a DIYer’s paradise!

Owners Diana and Aaron Vermeulen are ecstatic to share the AR Workshop experience with downtown Ferndale. Having both grown up in the Metro Detroit area, they have a deep love for Michigan.

Fun fact–Aaron is the brother of Maureen Anders, co-founder of both Anders Ruff Custom Designs and Anders Ruff Workshop. He has been surrounded by Maureen’s creative vision his whole life. His wife Diana’s degree in education and experience running a successful wedding photography business for the past decade makes her uniquely qualified to bring her lifelong passion for art and design into the workshop environment. Opening a workshop location of their own became a plan after they enjoyed a class together at the flaship location in Pineville, North Carolina.

A picture says a thousand words, as you can see, these photos tell the stories of so many adults, teens, and even children who have already tried out the AR Workshop experience, and have had a wonderful time DIYing their own artwork! Just look at all the happy faces and beautiful projects!

Diana and Aaron can’t wait to guide you through the process of creating your own custom wood sign, centerpiece box, canvas wall hanging, lazy susan, pillow and more! Sign up for a class and bring a friend or two! Or, consider booking a private workshop for a group of co-workers, friends, or family members! You’ll love your workshop experience!
