Meet the Makers

 

Since 2013, I've been researching, sourcing, testing, and making products that are better for you, your health, your home, your family, and our planet.  Natural/non-toxic home, bath & body, facial care, eczema care, and sleep aids.

My goal, as FROM SCRATCH FARM, is to reduce the toxin load in your home, change your skin, and save the planet.  All while pampering you, with luxurious self-care.

When you purchase from my business, you're putting dollars back into your local community.  You're supporting a long-time Boerne resident and single mom.  And you just might be funding a future local farmstand!

 


My love for plants goes back pretty far, but after our second son was born I found joy in taking the time to really care for them. I started propagating my own and had so many that I began putting them into pretty much anything.

I was quickly running out of space to put them in my home and I wanted to continue my creative outlet. That’s when my business idea started. I wanted to have a creative nursery business using unique, vintage, up-cycled, and handmade items.

But, I didn't just want to sell plants. I wanted to foster the love of caring for them too. CRAZY PLANT LOVEE also offers care cards, special instructions, and long term plant support to help. I want to be your Go-To crazy plant lady.

I'm a San Antonio artist, former art teacher, and now a full-time small business owner (ART & SOUL TX DESIGN). When I first joined Handmade On Main in 2022, I brought mostly my teacher stickers. Within a few months of being at the shop, I was asked if I could create a special Boerne sticker filled with all the local places and events. I loved the idea, so I did my homework and researched the iconic places around the beautiful Hill Country town. I added images of the gazebo, the Main Street Shops, the river, and even the ducks. 

One sticker I created 4 years ago was my most popular product in the shop and still is today.  This has given me the inspiration to create other amazing Boerne products, such as magnets, postcards, notecards, and polymer clay earrings. When you come into the shop you will see the heartfelt products I make for teachers, Boerne locals, and for everybody who comes to visit.



THE PT SHOP was founded while I was in the depths of Physical Therapy school and needing an outlet for creativity. With an obsession with cute accessories to dress up my boring scrubs and love for doodling, the shop was created!

I choose my prints, headband designs, and badge reels with the love of accessorizing a dull hospital outfit to bring a little pop of color and style in your every day attire.


 

Hi, I’m Lauren — the heart behind this shop 🤍

I’m a former massage therapist turned stay-at-home mama to two sweet girls, married to my best friend, and constantly trailed by our fur baby.

In November 2024, I picked up polymer clay during a season when I needed a creative outlet — something just for me. What started as therapy for my hands quickly became therapy for my heart.

I’ve always loved creating (I’ve even dabbled in woodwork, but polymer clay truly captured me. Every pair is handcrafted in my cozy studio space with intention, joy, and a whole lot of love.

Thank you for being here and supporting this dream.
