A lot of heart
As I prepare for November’s holiday market in Seaside, I keep coming back to what I want Lisa Lynn Creations to bring to your home: small moments worth slowing down for. A beautiful soap beside the sink. Candlelight at the end of a busy day. A thoughtful gift that says, “You deserve a little something lovely.” That’s the heart behind this growing collection. Over the coming weeks, I’ll be sharing the making, the finishing touches, and the little details that bring it all toge

Something lovely is taking shape in the studio—and this November, you’ll be able to see it in person!

Not everything earns a place in The Cottage
There’s been a lot happening behind the scenes at Lisa Lynn Creations lately. Some things have worked beautifully. Some have needed another try. And a few ideas have quietly been set aside altogether. I’m learning that creating a collection isn’t really about making as many things as possible.

Fresh Brewed Soap
Fresh Brewed Is Cut! Today was a pretty exciting day at Lisa Lynn Creations. I got to unmold and cut my first full loaf of Fresh Brewed soap!

Productive Week
As the week wraps up, I have to acknowledge that it's been productive. This week I poured soup, mixed scents, tested the candles (they're great!) and a scrub / soak. 2 excursions also led to some great curated items that will get dedicated studio time in the week to come. Another exciting step- I published the website! And we're up to 9 Instagram followers! Every journey starts with little steps and I hope you enjoy these peeks behind the curtain before we launch September 1

Ready?
Am I ready? No, not really. Will I ever be? Also no. So... let's go. I read a quote yesterday, 'You're not burnt out, you're starving for aliveness.' And yes, that's exactly it. That's why I'm starting Lisa Lynn Creations. Not for career aspirations; I have a job, which I love. I have a family, which I love. I am working toward my Masters of Divinity, which I will love, once it's done. And yet, it's not enough. I need to create. I need to contribute to the world. So I asked m
