About

I am happiest covered in sawdust and paint, with a strong cup of coffee nearby. I like to create things that inspire a smile. It might be motivational, funny, or even a little inappropriate.

In 2021, I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer and sustained vocal cord damage. It was the catalyst to turning this beloved hobby into my full-time livelihood. Thank you for helping me do what I love, even on days I don't have a voice.

The products you find here are all designed by me. Individuality is my jam and I hope you are inspired to embrace your uniqueness, too. Hand-drawn doodles, whimsical designs, decor with an edge. All handcrafted with care.

Our signature mini signs are made with premium quality pine and high quality finishes.

Looking for something specific? Let's work together to create a one-of-a-kind gift or piece of home decor that you love. You may reach me at kristin@novotnydesigns.com.
