Welcome to Caron Designs, where creativity, color, and connection come to life. I’m Lisa Caron Hickey—artist, maker, and founder. From a young age, I was drawn to crafting, and over the past 30+ years, I’ve explored everything from jewelry-making to pottery, fused glass, and now DIY craft kits and hands-on workshops.

My creative journey has taken me through classes at inspiring places like Brookfield Craft Center, Snow Farm, the Fiber Barn, and Manchester Art Institute—where I studied everything from soldering jewelry and felting to chair caning, painting, pottery, and glaze-making. These experiences helped shape the fun, skill-building classes I now offer in my own studio.

At Caron Designs, our mission is to inspire creativity in all ages—whether you’re picking up a felting needle for the first time or revisiting your love of handmade art. Our Vermont studio is a welcoming space to learn, play, and create. Join us to explore new materials, connect with others, and leave with something beautiful.
