Meet the Artist
Welcome to Maple & Fern Company! I am so glad you are here.
My name is Maria. I am a thirty-something wife and mama from North Carolina. For as long as I can remember I have been drawn to all things creative—theatre, music, art—you name it. I started Maple & Fern Co. with the vision to combine the spirit of nature with my passion to create. By infusing that feeling into every piece I design, my hope is that my art brings warmth and light into your home.
I began my shop focusing on hand-painted wood slice ornaments and signs just for the Christmas season, but finding pyrography at the end of 2019 lit a fire in me I didn't know existed--pun absolutely intended! By the end of 2020, after having worked on several custom pieces, I decided to offer wood-burned pieces year-round.
Macrame and fiber art have been one of my hobbies for a while now. Weaving and knotting is so peaceful! As I look forward to the future of Maple & Fern Co, I am excited to include fiber pieces debuting with each collection beginning in 2023.
I love to work on custom pieces and bringing your vision to life, however, I only accept a limited number of custom pieces each year. If there is a special piece you would like me to create for you, please reach out to me here or at hello@mapleandfernco.com to check my availability.
Crafted by Hand
It all begins with a spark of inspiration. Each and every piece created at Maple & Fern Co is crafted personally by me. I sketch the designs, prepare my materials, and hand burn, paint, or weave a creation to life. Everything I make, I create with the hope that it will allow you to feel a greater sense of connection to the things that matter most to you.
Whether it is infusing your home with a sense of grounding and peace, including natural elements to invite nature indoors, or adding special decor to remind you of your loved ones, the elevated-rustic style of our pieces can help you transform your space into a place you are happy to call home.
