Our Story
Hello, My name is Melissa, and I am the owner and creator of Southern Stone Appeal.
I thought I'd take the time to introduce myself and share a little about myself and why I started this business. My husband is a Marine so we tend to move around more than most. We also have two little boys and two dogs. Though always busy, I have had a passion for creating things on my own since i was little. I needed an outlet for all of my ideas, something that I could take with me with each move. On March 26, 2018 with my husband's full support I started my small business. In the beginning I crafted earrings and small jewelry pieces. Over time my business grew, and I expanded into the crafts I always wanted to make. On April 23,2021 we bought a Glowforge laser, and our possibilities grew even larger. We have since added a sublimation printer and a 3d printer. After my son was diagnosed with Autism I quit my job to take him to his therapy sessions and took the business full time. I love creating custom one-of-a-kind gifts and decor that inspire others and put a smile on their face while also caring for my boys! It is my sincere hope that the custom pieces I create bring a little more happiness to your day.
With love,
Melissa
