Hi, I'M ELLIE.
An artisan keycap maker, prop and food stylist, reader and reviewer, interior design fanatic, and avid thrifter.
MY STORY
I’m a Wisconsin-born creative with a lifelong love for making things - from childhood scrapbooks and hand-drawn t-shirt designs to digital art, photography, and interior design. Creating has always been the thread that ties every chapter of my life together.
After earning my BFA in Art from UW–Stout and my Master’s in Interior Design from the University of Oregon, I stepped into the world of professional design. But somewhere between detailed floor plans, long project timelines, and the structure of a 9–5, I realized I was craving something more. I was craving the freedom to explore, experiment, and build work that felt truly my own.
That curiosity pulled me back to my roots and into a new chapter where all my passions meet: digital design, handmade craft, and visual storytelling. I’m also a devoted reader - the kind who always has a book queued on her kindle and loves sharing new finds with anyone who will listen. Stories fuel my imagination just as much as making does.
Whether I’m designing, crafting, or dreaming up the next project, I’m always chasing that spark. And I’m so glad you’re here for the journey.
I’m a product + content creator who loves working with different materials and tools to bring modern, beautifully crafted ideas to life.
Right now, I’m deep in the world of artisan keycaps (keyboard lovers, I see you). That obsession has sparked a whole new line of desk accessories and I’m just getting started.
psst… “Macher” rhymes with “shaker”
