Welcome to Room for Calm
Hi, I’m Hannah – maker, small business owner, and firm believer in the power of creativity to calm your nervous system, boost your mood, and improve your overall mental health.
Based in Antioch, California and selling worldwide, Room for Calm is your home for stress-relieving creative hobbies that anyone can enjoy – no fancy skills required, no big investment of time or money needed, just simple ways to slow down and make something with your hands.

The Origin Story
Room for Calm began in 2022 as CubicleCrossStitches, an Etsy store that allowed me to express some of my snarky inner work thoughts on fabric while connecting with a community of crafty folks looking for a creative escape from the daily grind.
As the business grew and became my full-time focus, I realized my mission was bigger than just cross stitch. Hands-on creativity in general helps people let go of anxious thoughts and daily stress, and I wanted to offer more ways for people to experience those therapeutic benefits beyond stitching.
And so, Room for Calm was born!

What You’ll Find Here
Room for Calm is all about tapping into creativity as a way to boost well-being. My goal is to help you put down your devices, tune out the noise, and make space for calm.
Whether through the meditative rhythm of stitching, the soothing flow of coloring, or the mindful practice of journaling, I want every activity you find on Room for Calm to create a little window of ease and relaxation in your day.
So why not have a look around, pick out your next creative project, and carve out a little time just for you? You deserve it!
