Our Story

521handmade was created in 2014 when I started sewing and hand-painting throw pillows during a freezing North Dakota winter.

You may know me as "The Pillow Lady" - it's a title I love almost as much as "MOM MOM MOM."

I currently partner with over 800 boutiques and love working with small business owners.

Our zip code pillows make great housewarming gifts to bring some handmade charm into your home. I can't wait to make you something special!
