Lola Designs

One of the things I'm most grateful for as the owner of Lola Designs is the many amazing women I've had the chance to meet and get to know. Some have been crafters in studio for a workshop, some shoppers looking for a little something special, some community small business owners sharing their journey with me and all wonderfully encouraging and energizing! Thank you!

On Sunday, November 10, I hope you'll join me at Lola's to meet Shrima Karthik - she's one of the small business owners I've been privileged to meet and encourage. When asked why she turned her love of candle making into a business Shrima says "What started as a personal escape has grown into my passion and happy place. This journey led to the creation of Mudita Meraki—where “Mudita” reflects finding joy in the happiness of others, and “Meraki” is about putting your heart and soul into what you create. Each candle carries a piece of me, and with every purchase, I know I’m spreading a little joy. Even the glitters you see on my products are biodegradable because I believe in creating beauty without harming the planet."

Hope to see you soon!
