The places we love become part of who we are.
Hi! We’re Tim and Christina.
If you ask our family what our favorite thing to do is, the answer is easy—we love to travel.
Whether it’s wandering through a tiny mountain village, watching the sunset over the ocean, or getting wonderfully lost in a new city, we’ve learned that the places we visit become part of who we are.
And every trip comes home with us…
Not in our suitcases, but in the little treasures that remind us of those moments.
Adding a cute magnet to our favorite souvenir door.
Every magnet tells a story. Every story takes us somewhere we loved.
Putting up an ornament that brings us right back to that magical vacation when we decorate the Christmas tree.
A sticker tucked onto a water bottle or laptop that quietly says, “I was there.”
Those small keepsakes tell some of our family’s favorite stories.
As lifelong makers and creative souls, we realized something while traveling: the souvenirs we treasured most weren’t flashy or mass-produced. They were the pieces that felt thoughtful, timeless, and beautifully made.
So we decided to create the kinds of keepsakes we were always hoping to find.
Every design at Graymade Designs begins with a place, a memory, or a feeling. We combine laser engraving, layered wood, acrylic, and thoughtful design to create souvenirs that celebrate the places people love—and the memories they’ll never want to forget.
Everything is designed and crafted by our family, with the hope that it becomes a small part of yours.
We’re raising three adventurous kids in the Midwest, teaching them that the best souvenirs aren’t the expensive ones—they’re the ones that instantly transport you back to a favorite day, favorite view, or favorite adventure.
Whether you’re shopping for a reminder of your hometown, a favorite vacation, or the perfect gift for someone who loves to explore, we hope our keepsakes help you hold onto those moments just a little longer.
Because the best trips may come to an end…
But the memories deserve a place to live forever.
Thank you for supporting our family’s small business!
