OUR STORY
The Small Victories studio (formerly The Bower Studio & Gamut Pins) was established in 2011 by artists Isa Wang and Vincent Frano. They combined their interests in illustration and environmental stewardship to design beautiful and functional items that inspire us to connect, uplift, and care for one another.
Today, Small Victories is a small team of creatives with a shop in Northampton, MA. We make many of our own plantable seed cards, original illustrations, pronoun badges, and accessories just down the street in our private studio.
10% of all our profits are donated to ecological and LGBTQ+ organizations and our products are made with eco-conscious materials whenever possible.
