Welcome to Gigglemugg, where design meets joy in a vibrant celebration!
At Gigglemugg, we create vibrant, bold, and colorful designs that honor the necessity of life’s little joys.
Made for connections and fueled by joy to carry kindness, spark laughter, and wrap everyday
moments in a little extra magic.
- We believe joy isn't optional, it's essential.
- We believe in pinwheels, polkadots, and the tiny details that make life brighter.
- We believe color is a celebration, and design is a love language.
Hello!
I'm Marisa, an artist and designer based in Portland, Oregon. With a degree in industrial design (and a dream chapter spent as a toy designer), I've always been drawn to the playful, the bold, and the beautifully crafted.
Today, I run my own design studio and online shop, where I create vibrant, elevated paper goods, illustrations, and surface patterns for people, products, and brands who believe in the necessity of joy. My work is about celebrating the small things - a thoughtful card, a cheerful detail, a pattern that sparks delight - because those tiny joys add up to something big.
Every pinwheel, every polkadot, every colorful detail I design is an invitation to pause, smile, and celebrate life's everyday moments.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or just want to say hello. If you are interested in working with me please get in touch. I would love to hear from you!
Design Studio
At the heart of my studio is a love for art and design. I create bold, colorful patterns, illustrations, and paper goods that bring delight to everyday moments, from thoughtful greeting cards to vibrant wrapping paper.
Every project begins with inspiration, a playful color palette, a whimsical motif, or a tiny detail that sparks joy. I translate ideas into sketches and patterns, refining each element until it feels just right. The result is design that’s both fun and sophisticated, crafted with care and attention to detail.
Studio Values
All products in my shop are designed and shipped from my Portland studio, with care and attention to every detail. I prioritize working with local and U.S.-based manufacturers whenever possible, supporting the community and quality craftsmanship.
Respect for the earth is important to me, and I’m committed to reducing plastic and choosing recycled, eco-friendly materials and processes wherever I can. From paper goods to packaging, sustainability guides many of the choices in my studio.
Gigglemugg is woman-owned and welcoming to all. Everything I make is created with joy, inclusivity, and a little touch of whimsy, and you will find a habitually smiling face behind all that I do.
