Hi! My name is Amy. I am a wife, mom, pet owner, business owner, artist, gamer, housekeeper, cook, and unschooling supervisor. I wear many hats and it keeps me super busy.

I was born an artistic and creative individual who has a passion for creating things. From a young age, I would spend countless hours coloring, drawing, knitting, crocheting, painting, writing poetry, and whatever other art I could get my hands on. As I grew older, my need for self expression grew. I got my BA in Art in college, and always wanted to do something with graphic design or website building. While life never panned out for me the way I had wished, I got by with jobs that didn't interest me much but I was good at. Once the pandemic hit, I knew my life needed a change. I had a great desire to create again and decided to homeschool my child while running what is now known as Caffeinated Fairy.

My business started in August 2021 with me designing and sublimating snarky and crafty coffee mugs, which stemmed from my love of coffee. From there it grew into stickers, cards, and magnetic bookmark making. I started drawing my own designs, but wasn't 100% happy with the direction I was going. Fast forward to July of 2023 when I visited my favorite Christmas store on vacation, which had a lot of gnomes. I have always geeked out about gnomes, and always wished I could buy them all! Then my creativity struck and I learned how to make them myself. I decided it was time to use my passion and spin my business in a new direction. The forefront of my business has always been -me- creating. I don't like to outsource, as I want full control of the quality of my products that I take pride in.

I find it so satisfying making things with my own two hands, and it brings me a great deal of joy to see my customers enjoy their items! My customers are what keeps me going, and I appreciate all of you! Thank you for stopping by and reading my story, I appreciate the support!
