Just yesterday we were trying to work out when we started our little business. Four years as Bay Street Creative this September is not bad for two props makers who started as the scenic artists and prop makers for a set construction company, hiring out the mezzanine level and making our own props in between jobs!

Having moved from the original Bay Street in Tempe, to Alexandria, we have slowly built up our confidence and professionality to the stand-alone workshop you see today. Now after one year at Taren Point, we move into a new phase that sees us push our long-standing dream of making exquisite rentals for special events.

In this blog we hope to share our journey of making with you, so you can see the challenges and the joy of what makes us tick. Come see the processes and problem solving that comes with being a maker in the niche market of props and event rentals. While we hope to grow as a business this year, we are acutely aware of trying to stay small and manageable, to sustain the important balance of work and life.
