meet the maker | where do i begin?

Hi! My name is Sophia and I am owner, artist and maker behind Âme Naturals. I am a wife and mom to a wonderful, precocious little boy Zane, and a beautiful, curious little girl Zuri. Âme started in 2013 with a small donation from my mother (thank you, Mom), and a buttload of pent up energy. Âme means soul in French, which perfectly describes what my company is about. Passion turned purpose; Âme strives to create a personal experience through the use of handcrafted items offered with care and creativity meant to inspire.

I started out making candles, learning about waxes and scent ratios. Then I moved on to soaps and body scrubs and the like, cause that seemed like a natural progression for a smell goods line. Then in 2015, after never having touched a tool, other than a hammer, my partner and I built a bathroom wall caddy and a pair of tables. Cause you can always use some tables. This is where I’d say my passion for making began.

I’ve spent the last few years growing as an artist and a maker, which comes with its fair share of trial and error. But as you learn, you figure out to turn mistakes into solutions. I’ve carefully crafted a company I am proud of, creating one of a kind pieces for you to cherish for a lifetime. Each furniture, home decor and art piece is unique and possesses an heirloom quality that are built to last.
