About Me

Hi everyone, my name is Hayden Kesner, I am 22 years old and the artist behind HaySimplicity and NOW the owner of Simply Made Here! I am just finished my senior year of college at St. Mary's College of MD, where I double majored in Marine Science and Biology. I also just finished my field hockey career after 16 years. It's now the time to move on to BIGGER and BETTER things!

I originally started HaySimplicity my junior year of high school where I was able to learn and grow my love of mosaics. I spent my time creating mosaics, working with other artists, exploring my passion, and having the time of my life. I was ACTUALLY excited to work!

NOW I have decided to try my hand at a new business. Simply Made Here was an opportunity to showcase my mosaic business, have a place to hold my mosaic classes and workshops and bring other artists, workshops and products to the Catonsville and surrounding Communities.  I have meet so many amazing new artists and crafters and excited to meet more.

I am so excited to showcase local, regional and national artists, products from other small businesses locally and nationally, fair trade items, women owned businesses, businesses that support worth while causes and products that bring awareness to amazing organizations. 

However I am most definitely not doing it alone. I would not be here without the amazing support system I have. My mom, Bryan, grandparents, and the occasional siblings lol. No matter how challenging it has been they have supported me the entire time. Whether they helped me grout piece after piece, package up mosaics, or just calming me down with a little chat. I appreciate them so much and I owe my success to them!

Supporting small business and shopping local, whether its Simply Made Here or one of the many other small businesses in the area, is crucial for our community of artists to grow. 

I am extremely excited to enter this new chapter of my life and I can’t wait to share it with all of you.

Please let me know if you have any questions or products that you are interested in us carrying.

Thank You For Supporting Simply Made Here and can't wait to see you in the shop.

Hayden
