Hi, I'm Lori — the hands and heart behind Grateful Heart & Home. Every piece I create begins with gratitude: for the beauty of our lakeshore, for the joy of making something by hand, and for the people who welcome my work into their homes.
I believe the best décor isn't mass-produced. It's the pillow you can't stop touching, the wall art that makes guests pause, the little treasure that reminds you of a perfect beach day. That's what I chase with every stitch and brushstroke.
When you bring a Grateful Heart piece into your home, you're not just decorating — you're supporting a dream, a family, and a belief that handmade things carry a warmth no factory can replicate.

Every piece that leaves our hands carries a story. Here's what goes into each creation.
We source fabrics, driftwood, sea glass, and coastal elements from Lake Michigan and beyond. Every material is chosen by hand.
No assembly lines, no shortcuts. Each pillow, painting, and ornament is crafted individually — from first sketch to final stitch.
We build pieces to last — because the best home decor isn't disposable. It becomes part of your story, season after season.
