Our Story
Creations by Alfie began as a heartfelt endeavor during the pandemic, led by Alfie, who used to work as a breakfast chef in a hotel. Meanwhile, her husband, Brian, worked as a proposal manager in a large heat exchanger company. When the pandemic hit, Alfie decided to channel her creative energy into something new and meaningful. She started by making masks for her family, teaching herself the craft through YouTube tutorials. This humble beginning sparked a passion for creating, and soon she opened an Etsy shop to share her creations with a wider audience.
Inspired by her Filipino heritage and a desire to support local artisans, Alfie began importing acacia ware from the Philippines. She wanted to bring the beautiful craftsmanship of these local artisans to the global market, providing them with an opportunity to showcase their talents. As she grew her business, Alfie decided to add a personal touch to her products by offering customization and engraving. She invested in a small laser engraving machine, quickly realizing the vast potential it offered for creating unique and personalized pieces.
With Brian by her side, Alfie expanded her workshop, upgrading to a larger laser engraving machine. This new tool opened up endless possibilities, allowing them to experiment with different designs and products. Together, they poured their creativity and dedication into every piece, ensuring each one was crafted with care and attention to detail.
Brian's unwavering support and partnership have been instrumental in the growth of Creations by Alfie. Their shared vision and love for what they do have turned their business into a thriving venture. They are committed to making their journey as challenging and fun as possible, pushing the boundaries of what they can create and exploring new ideas.
Creations by Alfie is more than just a business; it's a celebration of craftsmanship, creativity, and the love and support of a husband and wife team. They continue to grow and evolve, always aiming to bring joy and beauty into their customers' lives through their handcrafted, personalized products.
