My Story
As a creative soul with a bit of a chaotic streak, I’ve always dabbled in a little bit of everything. Sewing crafts, perler beads, photography, painting, and even digital preservation have all had their moments. But I was searching for something more—a craft that I could grow into a sustainable business.
My first big leap was investing in a tiny laser engraver. That opened up the doors to creating earrings and small cutting boards, which led to my next adventure: discovering an unopened box of epoxy resin my husband had stashed away months earlier. From there, my creativity slowly evolved. I started experimenting with resin inlays, combining this new medium with wood, and challenging myself to create unique, functional pieces.
This process has been anything but easy. It’s been a gradual, uphill climb, filled with learning curves and a lot of late nights. But the joy of seeing people respond to my work—their smiles, stories, and connections to the pieces they choose—makes it all worth it.
Today, I’m still building this business one step at a time. I attend farmers markets, art fairs, and bazaars while working on creating a robust online store to reach even more customers. This journey is far from over, but I’m excited for what’s ahead.
My Values
Quality: While I strive for great craftsmanship, I focus on creating beautiful, functional pieces that are made to last. Balancing thoughtful efficiency with care allows me to make products my customers will love for years.
Sustainability: I love using bamboo, upcycled woods, and even exotic woods when I can, making the most of the materials available while being mindful of nature.
Creativity: My work reflects my love for color, balance, and an occasional unexpected twist that brings joy to those who see it.
Connection: This business is about more than just creating—it’s about sharing stories, smiles, and moments with you, my customers.
My Inspiration
Nature inspires so much of my work, from leaves and flowers to mountain landscapes and water. I’m also motivated by practicality—I don’t create knickknacks. Everything I make has a purpose, whether it’s a cutting board that brightens your kitchen, miniature spoon that you use to stir your morning coffee, or a wall hanging that brings joy to your space.
My family inspires me daily, too. From their goofy antics to their unwavering support, they’re my biggest cheerleaders and a constant source of ideas.
What Sets Me Apart
What makes my business unique is the heart I put into every piece. I combine creativity, thoughtfulness, and a commitment to creating functional art that resonates with people on a deeper level. I also believe in kindness, understanding, and embracing individuality. Through my work, I strive to connect with others and spread a little more joy and meaning into the world.
