A Dream Come True 🤎

We have some very exciting news to finally share… several of our staple Zelaki pieces are now available through Magnolia! ✨

This is truly a full-circle, pinch-me kind of moment for us. What started as a small dream to create beautiful, thoughtfully made leather goods in Ethiopia has grown into something we never could have imagined. Seeing our pieces on Magnolia’s shelves and website is a dream come true!

We’re incredibly grateful to the Magnolia team who pursued us and helped make this big undertaking doable for a small business.

Here’s to wild dreams, unexpected doors, and seeing where this next chapter takes us.💫

Summer recap 🤍

Meet our sweet baby girl, born about a month ago! She has already brought more joy, chaos, and love into our home (& workshop) than we could have imagined.

Between welcoming our daughter, keeping up with our growing family, and pouring countless hours into some behind-the-scenes projects for Zelaki, we’ve been a little quieter around here than usual.

We’re so grateful for everyone who continues to support this business and the people behind it, even when website updates are late and months pass without a post.

Thank you for the love and patience as we embrace this very busy & beautiful season of life. 🤎

UPDATE! The Indiana Peony Festival is officially postponed to tomorrow (Sunday, May 17th).

🌸 IMPORTANT FESTIVAL UPDATE 🌸

After closely monitoring the weather overnight, and after doing everything we could to keep today’s plans in place, conditions have unfortunately taken a turn for the worse. Due to storms and high winds, we’ve made the difficult decision to move today’s Indiana Peony Festival to tomorrow (Sunday).

We are so incredibly sorry for any inconvenience this may cause. Our vendors, florists, artists, and partners have spent months preparing for this day, and they would truly appreciate your support tomorrow more than ever 🌸

Same time, same place — just one day later.

In the meantime, our amazing downtown businesses participating in Brunch & Blooms are open, ready, and excited to welcome you today! If you’re still planning to be out and about, we hope you’ll stop in, shop, dine, and enjoy all the peony festivities they’ve prepared for you 💐

Thank you so much for your understanding, flexibility, and continued support. We can’t wait to celebrate with you tomorrow 🌸
