MEET THE CREATORS

2028 + Art

Owner of The Crafty Hun Bun

The Crafty Hun Bun mission is to help brighten and bring positivity to everyone who comes across Hun Bun’s art. My hope for my art is to inspire and bring happiness to others. I want people to see me and my art and get inspired to create or to spread happiness.

2028 + Electrical Engineering

Owner of JoacoTaco Art

I hope to inspire others to explore art and just be more creative! The most rewarding part of my creative process is seeing the amount of work I have created and shared on platforms like Instagram. It’s fun to see how long I have been keeping at it and how much I’ve grown and improved over time. As a fan of comic books, I hope to inspire others to give the medium a try and grow a similar fondness for it as I have.

2027 + Health Science

Owner of Tilla’s Trinkets

The creative process as a whole for my business is very challenging and rewarding. It sometimes can take time to find and/or finish projects, but the end result is always worth it. I can’t help but look at the finished products and feel a sense of pride in my creation, seeing it actually come to life.

2028 + Accountancy

Owner of Rooted

Through Rooted, I hope to share a message of connection, confidence, and meaning. My goal is for every piece of permanent jewelry to remind people of what keeps them grounded, whether that’s a relationship, a milestone, or a personal journey. I want customers to feel valued, celebrated, and connected to something deeper every time they look at their jewelry.

2028 + Graphic Design

Owner of Just Laina Jane

I want to bring joy to you, my customers! By jazzing up your favorite spaces using my designs that I love so much. Through my designs I show music, sports, and university pride in a new fun way, the perfect addition to any wall. I just want my designs to make your space the place you love most!

2026 + Journalism - Strategic Communications

My mission is to create art that strikes a chord in people, and to do that at a price that is both fair to me and my clients. I believe art is for the people; while I don’t work for free, I don’t believe in good art being unaffordable, either. Everyone needs art. I want to help people notice the beauty in their lives, in the moments all around them; it is the little things, after all, that make life so wonderful.

2028 + Psychology/Criminology - Spanish

Owner of Lexi’s Lacquer Lounge

I'm excited to see how people's orders will challenge me artistically! The most rewarding part of my creative process is being able to express myself artistically and authentically. I hope to share with people through my business an accessible place that makes people feel like themselves.

2026 + Psychology

Owner of INJOY

INJOY’s mission is to help people find joy within their everyday lives!

2027 + Psychology

My ultimate goal is to turn my hobby of crocheting into something meaningful for not just myself but others and to continue to explore my creativity. I hope the Student Made community can help me be successful by connecting me with a community of creatives like myself.

2029 + Business

Owner of Wick’ed & co.

The most rewarding part of running my small business is meeting new people and making new connections. Some challenges were finding places to sell at and people to sell to.

2027 + Fine Art

I hope to share a passion for authentic expression, and make all of my customers feel comfortable in their own personal style! My pieces aim to play with experimental design that swings all the way from minimal to maximal, completely natural/one of a kind to mass produced, bright to monochromatic… the only common theme being an honest love for creation, community, nature, and art!!
