I opened my shop in September of 2013 after years of shopping on Etsy - I love the handmade community and the opportunity Etsy gives to share yourself and your products with the amazing customers and fellow sellers!

My shop is located in the heart of Texas - right in Austin - where I moved a decade ago set on taking my goals and dreams of running a small business and decided to run with it! I have a cozy workspace, small but functional and full of color and fun, in the home I share with my close family. Living with my mom and niece who also have Etsy shops brings together three generations of sellers to keep us entertained all day long, sharing the fun of crafting and fabric.

I find my customers give me the biggest inspiration in my brand and products. When my gold tribal print lanyard (the first I ever made) started to trend on Wanelo, I knew I was on to something great. I continued to create fun and colorful lanyards and accessories inspired by the items my customers continue to love and buy. I started this shop making products covered novelty prints and bright colors that were my favorite to work with. With my shop evolving, I began to update my branding to represent a unique combination of my own original lip print logo and a shop name welcoming you to my Planet, a world of 1986 when I was born and my crazy, funky, colorful and fun artful life began.

The feedback and reviews from my customers mean the world to me, giving the opportunity to continue to improve my products and customer service. I hope that by listening to my customers and taking the advice they give to me, I am able to continue to inspire them to come back to visit my shop and check in to let me know how they like the items they have bought! If you have any ideas, please feel free to send a message along any time, I'd love to hear from you!
