Studio check-in: I’m sipping a too-hot coffee, fulfilling a wholesale order, and wearing these mustard Folk Flowers I made. They feel Scandinavian, cozy, a little nostalgic. Thought you’d like the peek. If you want to see more colors, I have them all in my Latchett shop. Have a great week + thanks for shopping small! xxKatie

Shopping small looks like this: me in the studio, packing your orders by hand and triple-checking every pair. Today’s photo is the reality—a stack of happy packages headed out. Each piece of polymer clay jewelry is designed & handmade by me! Check out what's new for Fall in my Latchett shop. Thank you for supporting my tiny business. xxKatie

Almost every weekend this summer I’ve been here, selling jewelry at the Minneapolis farmers market. Setting up early, coffee in hand, and seeing the market buzz with flowers, food, and friendly faces has been the highlight of my season. If you haven’t stopped by yet, you can still shop online anytime — lightweight, handmade, playful clay earrings made in MN 💛 Hope to see you at the market this weekend or in my Latchett shop! Shop small & spread happiness✨ xxKatie

Last month Varsha from Latchett came out to my studio to learn the process of how I make earrings from polymer clay. She made a great little reel and wrote a whole blog post on it! If you are curious about how I got started on my journey of making handmade jewelry you can check it out here.... https://latchet.com/stories/hear-katie-whites-story Hint, it starts with a heart transplant Have a great week! xxKatie

Here we are in the dog days of Summer. This is Daisy, one of our two dogs and constant companion. Every time I am working in the studio, one or both of my dogs is at my sleeping soundly. I couldn't ask for better studio mates!

This is how my summer is going. Bright, happy and a little goofy. Perfection. Last week I launched my Farmers Market Foodie charm earrings! You can check them out and shop them below. The clay earring charms come off of the hoop, making them super versatile. Win win. If you are here in Minnesota, make sure to stop by my booth at the Minneapolis Farmers Market every Saturday/Sunday from 7am-1pm. It's a lot of fun over there and MN grown produce is coming in hot! Have a great weekend! xxKatie

The Meg Hoops are retiring from the Katie White Designs site:( As you might expect, we have experienced some supply chain issues over here and the materials used to create the Meg Hoop are no longer available. There are just a couple of each pair of earrings left in stock at the Katie White Designs headquarters (my spare bedroom), so if you've had your eye on either of these, snatch them up while they are still with us! Shop with us in person every weekend at the MPLS Farmers Market Annex! Saturday/Sunday 7am-1pm xKatie

3 years ago I had a heart transplant. I was 37 and my life changed forever. At the time of my transplant I had living in the hospital, and to pass the time I started teaching myself to make polymer clay earrings. Actually, I spent HOURS on YouTube, going down rabbit holes trying to figure out how the heck to make my earrings look like something other than a 4-year olds art project :) Turns out, its harder than it looks, but I was up for the challenge. And I'm still up for the challenge 3 years later. Cheers to 3 yrs & thank you for all of your support!
