After working my 9-5 for quite some time, I realized that my neurodivergent brain is not cut out for traditional office work. So, I left the office life behind and started my business. Moth Mart originally started as Tiny Leaf Studio as a one-time booth at a local market, in Phoenix, Arizona by me, Emily! Business was so great that first market, I had to go ahead and keep signing up for more opportunities. After getting comfortable in the Phoenix market space, life picked me up and moved me to the Bay Area in California.

All designs and illustrations are hand-drawn digitally or drawn and scanned, and then made into cards, prints, stickers, and more goodies! After I draw out my design, I print, trim, and fold myself, meaning all Moth Mart cards and prints are handcrafted. Due to the handmade nature, each product might (and definitely will) vary slightly in trim and color.

I try to be as sustainable and waste-free as possible. To do that, I use scraps from trimming paper for packaging on the sticky notes, note pads, and mini cards. The rest of my paper scraps get used to make handmade paper. B-grade prints and cards are turned into buttons. All packaging used can be recycled!
