Little Lines is a love letter to childhood

Little Lines was born from a mother's desire to hold on to the fleeting, magical days of childhood.

As a mom to a curious three-year-old boy named Augustine, and a newborn, Everest, I found myself noticing how quickly time was passing. One day, Augustine handed me a simple drawing—uneven lines, bold colors, full of joy. It wasn't "perfect," but it was everything. It captured who he was in that moment: his imagination, his confidence, his happiness.

That's when I realized—children's drawings are more than just doodles.
They are tiny time capsules of who they are before the world tells them how to be.

I wanted to preserve those moments. Not in a drawer or a photo album, but in something that could be held, used, and loved every day.

Little Lines transforms children's drawings into hand-painted pottery—plates, mugs, and keepsakes—each one carefully crafted to honor the original lines exactly as they were drawn. Every wobble, every unexpected shape, every joyful imperfection is intentionally preserved. Because that's where the beauty lives.

Each piece is made entirely by hand, from the shaping of raw clay to the careful recreation of each child's drawing, honoring creativity, childhood, and the stories held within every line. Whether it's a morning coffee mug or a keepsake plate, these pieces are meant to bring joy to families and serve as daily reminders of precious growing-up years.

Little Lines is a love letter to childhood—
to creativity without rules,
to memories worth holding,
and to the beautiful lines that tell our children's stories.
