A Colorado Mom-Owned Business Built from the Heart
Lasting Littles was created from a deeply personal place. As a mom watching my boys grow faster than I ever imagined, I felt an overwhelming desire to capture their littleness before it slipped away.
Shoutout Colorado beautifully highlighted how:
-
My background as a professional motion designer shaped the brand’s artistic direction
-
Motherhood sparked the idea for meaningful, handprint and footprint keepsakes
-
Lasting Littles was built to help families preserve fleeting childhood moments
What started as an idea at my kitchen table in our mountain home near Evergreen, Colorado has grown into a thriving keepsake brand now in the homes of over 1,000 families.
