OUR STORY

After 15 years of building Vaalbara — from road trips and trade shows to late nights and mom life — I finally gave myself permission to pause. I was burnt out from wearing every hat and missing the spark that started it all.
Now, I’m back to my roots — designing again, creating again, feeling inspired again.
This new collection represents that shift — the return to heart-centered design. Each piece is handmade in Los Angeles using upcycled and ethically sourced materials, created with care and intention.
Thank you for growing with me through every season of this journey.
Here’s to what’s next.
Love,
Emily xo
