MEET THE CREATORS

2026 + Illustration Design and Animation

Owner of Sky Polish Nails

Through my business I hope to share a sense of fun and freedom of expression through press on nails. I hope to make having beautiful and unique nails more accessible to people who may not have the money for a professional manicure.

2028 + Elementary Education

2028 + Criminal Justice Studies

Owners of Constellation Confectioneries

The most rewarding part of our creative process is getting to bake together and laugh. If even a fraction of the amount of joy we feel while baking together spreads to others through our food, we will be content. 

2027 + Accounting and Entrepreneurship, Japanese Language Minor  

Owner of kuddlemekay

The most rewarding part of this has been seeing what I can make. I always try to make new designs and style to stand out, and it’s so fun playing around and making something new!

2027 + Chemistry

Owner of nailsby.t.r.i.n

I started selling press ons when I realized how expensive getting any design besides a french tip at a salon was. I was already making reusable press ons for myself and making extra ones for fun so instead of allowing them to just collect dust, I decided I could help others have more expressive nails. 

2028 + Fine Arts - 2d Studio

Owner of Shrimp Draws

I’m a growing small-artist who wants to make stories with their art. I hope to share maybe comfort, a bit of enjoyment that I hope they’re able to get from my products. Most of them are accessories, so people would know what they like and maybe what they’d like to show to others about them.

2029 + Studio Arts

Owner of The Emporium of Mischief

My main goal is to create items that bring whimsy and wonder to however ends up with them. I aim to bring a little magic back to the world with my products and a smile to those willing to support me. 

2026 + Landscape Architecture

Owner of Ashley’s Arts

I created Ashley’s Arts to share my landscape paintings with the world while learning digital art in high school. Since then, I have been dedicated to painting landscapes daily, both digitally and traditionally. I enjoy simplifying or amplifying the parts of the environment to make compositions more magical. I find inspiration from the natural landscapes, around me and how the randomness of nature can be so beautiful.

2026 + Music Education

Owner of Fuse Studio 315°

I made Fuse Studio 315° to share my art and the varieties I have and I started up again thanks to my mom!

2027 + Retailing and Consumer Sciences

Owner of Engrave

Engrave is meant to feel contemporary, organic, and a little whimsical. Each piece is hand designed and handcrafted and meant to either be gifted to loved ones or placed in a dorm room. I want all of my customers to feel like they’ve purchased something special and completely unique each time they support my business.

2028 + Studio Art & AVCE

Owner of Lomas Sketchbook

My business consists of crochet plushies, art prints, stickers and keychains. I use all of my own original art to make my prints and stickers. I use my original paintings so that I can put my art out there and share my work with others. I also incorporate crochet plushies so that I can express both my passions to make a bright and lively brand. 

2027 + Psychology

Owner of Love, Pieces

My brand is catered to individuals looking for meaningful, comforting products that contribute to their overall sense of security and tranquility. To make things that aren't just nice to look at but also have a special meaning behind them.

2026 + Medical Technology

Owner of Butterfly Sisters

I would like to portray wonder, curiosity, and serenity through my more ‘classically beautiful’ pieces. This clashes with my stainless steel collection, where I would like to display the personal power, strength, and individuality that I was searching for when I began making these pieces!
