About Katie

Katie is a fiber artist and graduate of Cazenovia College, where she earned her BFA in Interior Design. Creativity has always been central to her work, from designing spaces to creating handmade pieces that bring warmth, beauty, and a little whimsy into everyday life.

Today, Katie is the maker behind The Soulful Abode and founder of CNY Craft Club, creating small-batch crafts and hands-on experiences that encourage people to slow down, get creative, and connect with others.

Events

You bring the people. I’ll bring the vibe.

Want to create a creative night out for your customers, clients, team, or community? I create custom events that combine hands-on creativity and connection. 

Types of events I can do: 

  • Pop-ups

  • Private workshops

  • Collaborative events

  • Custom creative experiences

For private or custom events, you provide the venue and food. I provide the craft, materials, instruction, and the experience.

Consignment

Handmade goods, thoughtfully placed.

I partner with local boutiques, gift shops, and small businesses that are a natural fit for The Soulful Abode and its handmade, playful aesthetic.

How it works: 

Consignment arrangements are simple: I provide the products and handle the inventory, while you provide the space and opportunity to introduce The Soulful Abode to your customers.

 

I’m looking for retailers who appreciate handmade goods, support local makers, and want their customers to discover something a little different.

Wholesale

Handmade goods for your shelves.

 

I offer wholesale on a select collection of The Soulful Abode products, designed to be easy to gift, display, and bring a little handmade joy into your shop.

Currently available for wholesale:

  • Pins

  • Bookmarks

  • 3-in-1 Charms

  • Mobiles

The details:

Wholesale orders have product-specific minimums and lead times. Orders are placed directly with The Soulful Abode, and pricing is provided through the wholesale line sheet.

Custom Gifts

A little something made just for them.

Looking for a thoughtful gift for clients, employees, event guests, funders, or a special group? I create custom handmade gifts that feel personal, useful, and a little more special than something pulled off a shelf.

From branded pieces to curated gift sets, we can create something that fits your people, your event, and your budget.
