fashioner
One who forms
A fashioner is someone who shapes, forms, or creates something.
The word implies hands-on crafting rather than mere design: a fashioner of fine jewelry, fashioners of public opinion.
It appears most often in literary or elevated contexts, where maker or creator might sound too plain.
