Hi! My name is Olivia Sheaffer, and I’m the founder of Poppy & Snow Embroidery. I was born and raised in Carpinteria, California, moved to Iowa for school, and am now back on the California coast! During my time at Iowa State, I took a hand embroidery class and instantly fell in love. That led me to buy a small Brother embroidery machine for my dorm room, and what started as a little side hobby has since grown into the business it is today. One of my very first commissions was for my friend Sarah — a thrifted hoodie from Goodwill with her cat Bean embroidered on it — and from there, I was hooked. Today, every piece at Poppy & Snow Embroidery is designed and embroidered by me here in Carpinteria. I create everything from custom one-offs, bulk orders, to curated collections that I sell online and at markets, all stitched with love. I invite you to browse the collections, place a custom order, or follow along on Instagram @poppy.and.snow.embroidery for behind-the-scenes looks or to get inspiration for your custom orders!

Thank you so much for being here — I can’t wait to create something special for you!
