In this episode, we sit down with Lauren Vieux, the talented handmade seller behind the successful Etsy shop, Barley and Oak.
Lauren started creating with her hands as a form of therapy and has since grown her business from string art to custom wood decor, focusing on creating personalized pieces for her customers. One of her most popular items is a custom piggy bank for children, featuring their first initial in acrylic on the front and their name in cursive. Her piggy banks have gained popularity through social media, with viral TikToks bringing in a surge of orders for the handmade keepsakes.
She takes us through her journey of discovering the power of a wood laser cutter and how it allowed her to create intricate and customizable designs for her customers. In addition, we delve into the details of how she discovered the demand for custom piggy banks, how she perfected her process, and the role that the Etsy Accelerator course and community played in her success, providing her with the support, resources, and a community needed to take her shop to new heights, earning up to $10K per month selling unique and personalized piggy banks.
