MEET THE MAKER
Hi, I'm Kate! I started The Linnea Company in 2021, and we are based in the Midcoast of Maine. After 10 years in the wedding industry, my family and I decided to make the move from Portland to Warren. This was the perfect excuse that I needed to start my own business. I love working with my hands, making meaningful connections in our community, and sharing a bit of joy with the world. This now allows me the ability to work from home and take care of our two girls at the same time. I am mama to Isla + Lucia.
As for the name- The Linnea flower, also known as the twin flower, grows in Sweden. The Linnea Company is a nod to both my Swedish heritage and to the twin-like nature of the dolls. My hope is that kids gifted with a Linnea doll see themselves (or one of their friends!) reflected in their new doll.
In addition to being a doll maker, I have decided to expand my business and shift my focus to offering a new line of apparel & accessories! I am thrilled to be launching a new line of cotton block-printed robes, bags, and scrunchies.
Thank you so much for your support -I can't wait to create a doll for you and your loved one!
XO,
Kate
