Hey There!
Hi, I'm Lana — and I got tired of paying too much for things that didn't even feel like me.
I've always been someone who makes things. But it wasn't until I started looking at the price tags on furniture and home accessories I actually loved that I got serious about it. My reaction wasn't frustration — it was curiosity. I wanted to understand how things were built so I could build them better, for myself and eventually for you.
I manage an Innovation Lab at my local library by day, which means I spend my days surrounded by makers, learners, and people figuring out how to bring ideas to life. It's shaped how I think about craft: with intention, with practicality, and with a healthy sense of humor.
My work lives at the intersection of woodworking and 3D printing — two disciplines that don't always talk to each other, but in my hands, they do. I'm drawn to things that are useful and sturdy but also feel warm, a little nostalgic, and quietly playful. If something can make you smile and hold your books at the same time, that's the dream.
The heart of everything I make is one simple idea: your home should actually feel like you. Not like a catalog. Not like what was on sale. Like the specific, interesting, one-of-a-kind person who lives there.
I'm building this business so I can spend more time making things that matter — and being present for the people I love most. I hope something here finds its way into your space and makes it feel a little more like home.
