Historically inspired
History and storytelling have always been my passions, and they shine through in every piece I create. To me, every photo and illustration carries a rich narrative waiting to be rediscovered. As a teenager, I could often be found scouring thrift stores and estate sales with my trusty Pentax camera, hunting for inspiration. Today, I channel that same love for nostalgia into Firefly Notes, where I breathe new life into vintage-inspired designs and transform them into practical, beautiful treasures.
Firefly Notes began in 2008 during a season of change and growth in my life. As a new mom navigating uncharted territory, I turned to this creative outlet as a source of sanity. Over the years, it has grown alongside my family and evolved into the thriving small business I’m incredibly proud to lead.
While I manage every aspect of Firefly Notes—from designing and making to administration—I’m fortunate to have a talented team by my side. Their dedication is integral to creating items that bring a touch of charm to everyday life.
In addition to Etsy, Firefly Notes has expanded to include a direct website (fireflynotesonline.com) and a wholesale platform (fireflynoteswholesale.com) and on Faire (https://faire.com/direct/fireflynoteswholesale). You can find our creations in hundreds of stores worldwide, and our work has been featured in publications like Vogue, BuzzFeed, Interweave Magazine, and more.
Thank you for stopping by! I hope you enjoy exploring my creations as much as I love making them. If you have any questions or just want to say hello, feel free to reach out—I’d love to hear from you!
