Hey Hazel is a one-woman shop run by me, Tina Sims. I’ve worked as an art director for many years, while hand-lettering and illustrating as a hobby on the side. I would draw on my iPad and dream of designing Christmas throw pillows for Pottery Barn. Eventually, that led me to putting my art on products I’d want in my own home.

That’s how Hey Hazel Co. came to be.

My love for home decor, folk art, and all things colorful has come together in playful pieces that I hope will bring a little whimsical joy to you, your people, and your home. From a colorful blanket on the couch, to a cute pin on your purse, to a fun pillow on your favorite chair, these are the little things that add color and happiness to everyday life. That’s what I make at Hey Hazel.

If you’re wondering where the name Hey Hazel came from, it’s nothing fancy: I have hazel eyes, and saying “hey” is my thing. I’m Minnesotan…we say “hey.” Plus, I love the alliteration.

Thank you so much for being here and supporting my small business. I hope Hey Hazel makes you as happy as it makes me!
