Our Story
At Upper Left Designs Studio, we create intentionally crafted goods inspired by the wild beauty of the Pacific Northwest. We're a women- and Native American–owned small business, led by husband and wife duo Teal and Harris, blending art, nature, and function into every product we make.
Our candles are hand-poured in micro batches using clean-burning soy wax, high-quality fragrance oils, and nature-inspired vessels that reflect the landscapes we love — forests, coastlines, mossy trails, and misty mountains. Each product tells a story of slowing down, grounding yourself, and finding warmth in the everyday.
In addition to our candles, we offer handcrafted earrings, cozy knit goods, and thoughtful gifts made with the same care and attention to detail. Whether it’s a flickering candle named after a favorite trail or a wax melt that evokes a crisp autumn orchard, our products are designed to feel both rooted and luxurious — a little piece of the Upper Left, wherever you are.
We’re proud to be Native-owned, family-run, and community-minded. Thank you for supporting handmade.
