New Business Hopes to Cre8 a Buzz

A new Westborough business will host parties where guests make their own gifts.

Cre8 a Do It Yourself Studio welcomed its first visitors to 76 Otis St., in the shopping plaza at the Route 9 intersection, during a soft opening on Saturday.

The business closed at Felter's Mill, at 22 West St., Millbury this spring, toward moving to larger space in Westborough.

Owner Lisa Sacks said the business' offerings will include welcoming birthday parties, ladies nights and the like, where guests customize items using the studio's equipment, with her staff's help.

A grand opening, with demonstrations, giveaways and specials, is expected for the beginning of August, Sacks said.
