About Me

Welcome to Studio419DC, a creative design business located in the heart of Washington, DC. Founded in 2022, Studio419DC offers journals, planners, greeting cards, stickers, and more—all thoughtfully designed by me, NeKola, the owner.

My Journey

With a Master’s Degree in Business and years of experience as an elementary and middle school teacher, I’ve always loved exploring the intersection of learning, creativity, and joy. As a mom to two, my world is filled with imagination and inspiration—and much of that energy finds its way into the work I create.

Over the years, Studio419DC has grown into a space where design meets heartfelt creativity. Everything I make is fueled by my love for crafting and the joy it brings to others.

What We Offer

At Studio419DC, creativity meets practicality through:

• Journals & Planners: Stylish, functional designs for reflection, organization, and creativity.
• Greeting Cards & Stationery: Handmade with soul, sass, and style for every occasion.
• Workshops & Classes: Opportunities to explore techniques like bookbinding, laser cutting, and more.

The Heart Behind the Studio

Studio419DC is more than an online shop—it’s a source of joy for both me and my customers. I strive to make a meaningful impact through designs that encourage creativity, confidence, and connection.

Through crafting, I aim to inspire others to embrace their unique style and try something new. I also continue to grow alongside my creative community, attending events like Sublimation Camp and papercrafting workshops to learn, share, and innovate.
