We’re delighted to be returning to Thainstone Centre, Inverurie on Sunday 8th November for this year’s Taste of Christmas event! ❤️

🔥 Heat pressing
🎨 Custom design created by our in-house designers
🎁 Personalised gifts & keepsakes

Behind the scenes, our workshop has grown too, with equipment including our xTool F1, F2 Ultra MOPA, M2, P2, apparel printing equipment and HP2 Heat Press. Giving us loads more ways to turn your ideas into finished products.

Whether you already know exactly what you want, or you just have an idea and need some help bringing it to life, our in-house designers can work with you to create something completely custom.

We’re already planning what to bring this year and we can’t wait to show you everything we’ve been working on! 😍

🔥 TAKING THE WORKSHOP TO THE MARKET! 🔥

One of the things we love about AC Creative is that we’re not limited to creating everything back at the workshop… we can bring the making with us! 🙌

If you’ve visited us at a market before, you’ll probably have seen our brilliant little xTool F1 in action. It’s our go-to portable laser for on-site engraving, and it’s fantastic for personalising things like slate, keyrings and gifts while you wait. ✨

But today we brought along one of its bigger siblings… our xTool M2! 😍

🎥 In the video you can see the M2 engraving a Highland cow straight onto a slate board right there at the market. 🐮🪵

And here’s something you might not know…

The F1 and M2 are only a small part of the equipment we have at AC Creative!

Our workshop is packed with different machines that allow us to create and personalise across a huge range of materials and products.

⚡ Multiple xTool laser machines for different engraving jobs and materials
👕 Our xTool Apparel Printer for creating custom clothing, bags and more
🖨️ 3D printing for turning ideas into physical products
🎨 Plus even more equipment behind the scenes!

Wood, slate, glass, steel, metal, acrylic, clothing, bags, gifts, signage, merchandise, personalised products… if you have an idea, come and talk to us.

That’s really what AC Creative is all about.

💡 We’re not just laser engraving.
💡 We’re not just clothing printing.
💡 We’re not just 3D printing.

We’re a creative package wrapped into one company with the equipment and experience to take an idea and work out the best way to bring it to life. ❤️

And sometimes… we’ll even make it right in front of you at the market! 😍
