Who’s in the Studio?

I wanted to write this little blog to introduce who we are and the people making our products. Spoiler alert: it’s mostly our family! We are a family business and if you want to read more about our history you can click: HERE 

 

Crispina (Co-Owner)

Crispina works on everything from product design and custom work to mixing ink and printing. The website looks so good because she has taught herself how to make it that way! She also makes the stencils we use for printing and makes sure everything is right and ready to go. On top of all that, she makes sure our business runs smoothly and handles all the not-so-fun behind-the-scenes work that comes with running a business.

Lily (Me!)

My job consists of printing, doing most of our color testing and ink mixing, design work, marketing, website upkeep, and writing the Sunday Splash newsletter. Oh, I also answer most of our emails and handle customer service! :)

Because this is my family’s business and I’m so involved in it, I tend to wear a lot of different hats. Each day in the studio is different, which is part of the reason I love working here so much!

Kerry!!!!

Kerry is our only full-time employee who isn’t part of the family, but she does a little bit of everything, just like the rest of us! Her specialties are printing, making our screens (which is a real art and can also be a pain in the butt!), and handling about 90% of our shipping.

Kerry is an amazing coworker who is always willing to do whatever needs to be done. She’s someone we can always rely on, and we’re so lucky to have her on our team!

Violet

Violet is my cousin and Crispina’s daughter. She started working part-time in the studio over the summer, and it’s been so nice having her around! Violet spends a lot of time working on our Print Club and making sure everything is organized and ready to go each month. She also helps with printing and packaging our products.

Sofia (Co-Owner)

Sofia, my mom, is a full-time kindergarten teacher who is also in charge of coming up with great ideas and running our local pickup location. One major plus is that if you live nearby, you can skip the shipping costs and pick up your calendar in Stockbridge instead!

That’s our day-to-day team and a little look at who does what around here.

I wanted to write this blog as a little reminder that we really are a small business and how important it is to support small businesses, not just ours but in general.

It would be so much easier to mass-produce our products, but that’s not why we do what we do. We love making things by hand, and that’s part of what makes our business special. At a time when AI is taking over and it can feel like fewer and fewer things are handmade in America, we want you to know that we’re still here, making things by hand, one print at a time!

Thank you for supporting our family and the work we do. It truly means so much to us!
