Hi, I’m Renae — the maker behind Blue Rhubarb. This business grew from a love of handmade textures, cozy spaces, and the creativity that comes from making something with your hands. Blue Rhubarb is rooted in the belief that creativity can bring comfort, calm, and beauty into everyday life. I enjoy using a range of textiles and fibers such as wool, cotton, and linen. Color, style, and texture can be found in each product. Whether its woven, stitched, or looped, every piece is handmade with texture, comfort, and timeless creativity in mind.

My mission is to bring quality craftsmanship to you, which means you will see and feel the difference from one of my products rather than something you would purchase from a chain or big box store. I strive to create captivating pieces of wall decor and DIY kits for you to create your own textured and whimsical piece that are sure to give a cozy and artisanal feel. Blue Rhubarb aims to provide calming creations that boost personal well-being and emphasize a need for self-care through craft that can be passed down through generations.

Through beginner-friendly DIY kits and handmade fiber art, I hope to create pieces and projects that feel warm, approachable, and meaningful — whether you are decorating your home, giving a thoughtful gift, or trying a new craft for the first time. My goal is share the love of making as it is such a good way for me to manage my stress and anxieties. Being a creator and needing an escape from work, being a mom, and general life stress, I use crafting as a medium for self-care. I learned to latch hook along with needlepoint at a young age from my grandma and great aunt. I called it "picking" and sure have some great memories from those two! This inspires me to make my own patterns and DIY kits for you to enjoy alone or with a loved one. I believe in self-care via creativity and strive to provide tactile and warm decor that feel unique and personal.
