Through my small craft business 🌻🌵Olive Makes 🌈🌿 I design, illustrate, and hand embroider fiber art.

As a slow craft, it’s therapeutic to take time to meticulously make things with my hands.

I taught myself how to embroider about 10 years ago, and have been embroidering ever since. Each hoop is a combination of my unique interests and creative skills, and every single sketch and stitch is made with joy.

I wear a lot of hats: I design, illustrate, and stitch each hoop; act as a social media manager by strategizing, recording, and posting to socials; and manage my Etsy shop, SEO, packaging and shipping.

I’ve organically grown my following to close to 10k followers across Instagram and TikTok. I’ve also been featured in Bustle & Sew Magazine & DMC’s socials (a / few / times).
