Hi,

I’m Karlie!

I was born and raised in rural Colorado, where my parents instilled in me the values of humility and a strong faith in God.

One of my fondest childhood memories is playing in the gully, and finding treasures. So much history in the things you find. I once discovered an old cow skull, which sparked my creativity and led me to experiment with it. The joy of transforming something aged into a fresh yet wild and unique piece, has filled me with extra happiness I didn’t know I needed.

I love the great outdoors, playing volleyball, and pretty much anything that involves being active. My husband and my family are truly the most important things in my life, and they continually bring me joy.

A few fun facts about me:

  • My favorite color is black (surprise, surprise)

  • I have crooked pinky’s that were a gene passed down from my grandma

  • I am a huge heavy metal fan

  • I am a Colorado native

I aspire for my creations to serve as a warm welcome mat to your home, cherished and passed down through generations.

Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your safe space!
