Our Story

Our Journey

Some of my most cherished memories come from time spent in the kitchen—quiet moments baking new recipes, or lively dinners filled with laughter. From a young age, I found joy in cooking and baking, reading my grandmother’s hosting magazines, and circling the recipes that caught my eye. I would watch her prepare her favorite recipes for our family dinners, using handwritten recipes or newspaper clippings, that now live in my own kitchen. 

After years of working in the fashion industry, I wanted to create something that captured my love for the home and the everyday moments that become special when you slow down to appreciate them. Willamere is a reflection of my life, where timeless design meets sustainable living. I hand-draw each print, in Charleston, South Carolina, and design each piece with attention to detail. I believe in choosing heirloom quality items that last and you’ll treasure for years to come. Our products are crafted to become part of your story, collected and cherished over time, much like recipes passed down through generations.

Our Values

At Willamere, we believe in slow living—taking time to gather with loved ones and savoring the small moments that make life meaningful. With this mindset, we embrace thoughtful purchasing, choosing items with care and intention. Our pieces are inspired by nature and made from organic, natural fibers and responsibly produced in Fair Trade-certified factories, ensuring that they are kind to both the earth and the artisans who make them. We design with longevity in mind, creating charming and cohesive collections that can be effortlessly mixed and matched across seasons, while always looking refined and polished. 

Our Mission

The kitchen is more than just a place to cook—it’s the heart of the home, where traditions are passed down, meals are shared, and the best conversations often happen. At Willamere, we aim to help you create a space that reflects this—where you can slow down and gather with loved ones. Each piece in our collection is designed to inspire these moments—whether it’s a relaxed breakfast with a loved one or a long evening around the table with friends.
