“Scissors & Glue Studio grew out of a simple belief: that working with your hands, playing with paper,
and making something meaningful is one of life’s purest joys.
My goal is to create art and experiences that feel colorful, thoughtful, a little indulgent, and wonderfully human.
The kind of business where strangers become friends, scraps become keepsakes, and creativity feels effortless again.”
—Alexis, Chief Paper Cutting Officer
Lovely to meet you
Hello! I’m Alexis. Welcome to Scissors & Glue Studio.
I’ve spent my career surrounded by beautiful things. Styling them, arranging them, photographing them, collecting them and some people would say hoarding them (vintage books, textiles and paper ephemera are my weakness.)
Before founding Scissors & Glue Studio, I ran my own interior design firm and worked as an editor for Martha Stewart Living, Real Simple, and House Beautiful. I’ve styled countless photo shoots and sets for companies including Pottery Barn Kids, Anthropologie, One Kings Lane, and Benjamin Moore. I’ve also had the privilege of working for incredible companies like Etsy and Material Bank.
In short, I’ve made a living out of noticing details, embracing color, and turning everyday objects into something special.
After many years working for brands and designing spaces, I want to shift my focus and help people realize that everyone is creative, and that making things with paper (without pressure or perfection) can ground us and bring us back to a simpler, more playful state of being.
At home you’ll find me hanging out with my amazing family and two rambunctious dogs. Our home is jam packed full of books, vintage collections, and pops of bright colors wherever I can sneak them in.
