Welcome to the Blog!

Hi friend! I’m Tatiana—wife, mama, Data Analyst by day, laser engraver by night, and accidental entrepreneur behind Tailored and Treasured. I’m so glad you’re here!

This little blog is something I’ve wanted to start for a while. I’ve been sharing bits and pieces of our journey on social media, but I wanted a space where I could slow down, tell the full story, and hopefully encourage someone else who’s in the thick of building something from scratch—just like we were not so long ago.

I started Tailored and Treasured in the summer of 2023 with no design background, no business plan, and no idea what I was doing—just a love for creating and a gut feeling that there was something here. A few months in, my husband Matt joined me, and we dove headfirst into laser engraving. We now run the business out of our garage, usually working late at night after our kids are in bed. We both work in healthcare during the day, but this shop has become so much more than a side hustle—it’s our passion project and our creative outlet.

We’ve poured our hearts into every order, and along the way we’ve learned how to build a brand, grow an audience, and make thousands of personalized gifts that actually mean something to the people receiving them.

Whether you're an Etsy seller, small business dreamer, or just someone who loves meaningful gifting, my hope is that this blog feels like a cozy place to learn, laugh, and remember that you're not alone.

Thanks for being here—I can't wait to share more with you.

With love,
Tatiana
