about smeeny made wild
This isn’t just a brand. It’s a trailhead.
A place to rewild your creativity, reconnect with what matters, and build something beautiful — in business and in life.
A HOME FOR CREATIVES, DREAMERS, AND ADVENTURERS
Make things. Go places. Live wildly.
Being outdoorsy isn’t just about chasing epic summits or powder days…it’s about slowing down and savoring everyday moments in nature. Morning coffee walks with your bestie, lunch by the river, or a quiet moment with your knitting or sketchbook…those are the small, wild moments that make life rich.
When I started selling my handmade knits in 2017, I never imagined this little side hustle would evolve into a full-blown creative community. But over the years, Smeeny Made Wild has grown into something deeper…a gathering place for creatives, artists, adventurers, and purpose-driven women who care about the planet and want to live more intentionally.
This brand was built to keep your head warm, yes…but it’s so much more than that, it’s here to help you feel at home in the outdoors, to reconnect with your creativity, and to remind you that you're not walking this path alone.
Because around here, we celebrate the slowness of handmade, the joy of everyday adventures, and the wild-hearted journey of building a life that feels like you.
MY MISSION
Connection and Community
At Smeeny Made Wild, I believe that the outdoors isn’t just a place to explore…it’s where we reconnect with what matters most.
Whether you’re wrapping yourself in one of my handmade knits or joining a retreat to rewild your life and business, everything I create is rooted in a deep love for nature, sustainability, and slow, intentional living.
I’m here to help you build a life and business that supports your wild, creative spirit and protects the places that inspire it. That means making conscious choices in the materials I use, the adventures I lead, and the causes I support like donating to Protect Our Winters and other organizations creating a more inclusive, equitable outdoors.
You don’t have to do it all perfectly. But together, we can choose a different path…one that supports both your dreams and the planet.
Let’s build a life you don’t need a break from… and protect the wild places that help us come home to ourselves.
SUSTAINABILITY & GIVING BACK
Every hand knit beanie is crafted with 100% ethically and sustainably sourced wool—because the planet matters. And with every purchase—whether it’s a cozy beanie, a small business resource, or creative retreat—you’re helping give back.
Smeeny Made Wild donates 1% of all revenue to Protect Our Winters, and additionally donates to organizations fighting for LGBTQIA+ rights, women’s rights, and racial justice—because climate justice is social justice.
This isn’t just business. It’s impact, intention, and doing things differently.
