Hi there! I’m Molly, the artist behind Glitter & Snark.
This adventure took root at a Seattle kitchen table back in 2014 with a friend’s birthday. I’d been making sweary, snarky cards for years, but I wanted to make her something more substantial than a card.
Hmmm. What if I took all the materials I used to make cards — hand-colored rubber stamped images, patterned papers, ribbons, snarky sayings — and collaged them onto a wooden base?
[Insert angelic choir here]
Ok, maybe that’s overstating how the piece turned out. I mean, yes, my friend loved it (she literally lol’d) but I saw all the flaws and my ADHD brain went into overdrive, trying to figure out how I could’ve improved it. So I made more.
One day my mom gave me some old Life magazines she’d found while cleaning out her attic and I haven’t looked back since.
I now make my signature artblocks, cards, and magnets from a little studio in Cleveland, OH. You can find me at markets, burlesque shows, and maker fairs throughout Northeast Ohio. Come by, say hi, and spend a few minutes laughing with me.
