Overview

Cute products deserved a shop that was just as irresistible.

Overview

The Little Burlap Barn is a Southern California boutique home decor shop with seriously adorable products — the kind of shop you walk into and immediately want everything. They ship all over the US, which means their website isn't just a storefront, it's their main stage. When owner Ashley came to me, she knew her online shop wasn't doing her product lineup any justice.


Square was holding her back — and the brand felt it.

The Problem

Square was holding her back — and the brand felt it.

The Problem

The Little Burlap Barn had been running on Square, which worked fine in the early days. But as the shop grew — more products, more customers, more complexity — the platform started to show its limits. The site couldn't scale with the business, the collections weren't organized in a way that made shopping intuitive, and the overall feel of the store didn't capture the cozy, curated charm that makes the brand so special in person. Ashley needed a platform that could actually keep up, and a design that felt like an extension of the shop itself.

Custom Shopify with texture, layers, and a whole lot of heart.

The strategy

Square was holding her back — and the brand felt it.

The Strategy

I built a fully custom Shopify store designed to feel like you're actually browsing the barn — textured, layered, and full of personality. Think scrapbook-style warmth: the kind of digital space that makes you want to linger. I worked closely with Ashley throughout every step, making sure the site reflected exactly what she had in mind, not just a template with her logo swapped in. On the technical side, I imported all 400+ products, organized the collections in a way that's intuitive and easy to shop, set up shipping integrations so fulfillment actually works seamlessly, and built out a candle subscription feature so her most loyal customers can get their favorites on repeat. The result is a store that finally matches the quality and charm of what's inside it.
