About Splintercraft Artisan Works & Supply

Splintercraft Artisan Works & Supply is a working art supply shop and studio based in Huntsville, Texas.

We serve artists, students, and professionals with reliable materials, practical knowledge, and a space built around making. The shop combines traditional craft with modern production tools, giving people access to both historic methods and contemporary workflows.

Located near the downtown square, Splintercraft operates alongside its sister organization, Compton’s Letterpress Artisans Guild (CLAG). The working letterpress studio—featuring equipment from the late 1800s through the early 1900s—is maintained and operated by the CLAG. These presses aren’t decorative—they are actively used for demonstrations, education, and production.
