Charlotte Lyons designs and makes things in a variety of styles and media. Still inspired by the humble simplicity of traditional art and craft and the inventive use of repurposed materials, Charlotte aims to mix an unfussy playfulness with the vintage charm of handmade keepsakes.

Over the years, her work has been featured in her books (Mothers and Daughters at Home, Between Friends), those with Mary Engelbreit and Barbara Martin and also in magazines such as Country Living, Victoria, Woman’s Day, Better Homes and Gardens and Mary Engelbreit’s Home Companion. Currently, she designs for licensing and teaches workshops nationally.

Born and educated in St. Louis, Charlotte raised three artistic daughters in a bright pink house in Chicago. Now she and her husband live in the lower Hudson River Valley of New York, happy to have their girls (and their guys) nearby.
