Hi everybody!

I’m Paige Tompkins, a 24-year-old investments analyst turned designer who found solace in a needle and thread.

What started as a way to quiet the noise in my hectic life grew into something bigger. MAEHEM STUDIO was born from the paradox between structure and spontaneity, order and overflow, passion and discipline (okay Paige, stfu with your big vocab words). In embroidery terms, I create hand-stitched chaos — with intention and precision behind every thread.

I’ve been on a journey to embrace both the wild and orderly sides of myself. It’s not always easy. I still overthink, compare, and trip over my own imperfections sometimes. But that’s okay. Perfect is so boring anyway.

For me, that’s MAEHEM STUDIO.

No matter what kind of softness or edge you carry — or both — own it. Be true to you. It’s the only way to be free. MAEHEM pieces are our daily reminder — mine and yours — that you don’t have to fit into anything but yourself.

Come on and join the MAEHEM if you wanna look and feel cool as HELL.

xoxo,
Paige Tompkins

P.S. Mae is my middle name, and “mayhem” is the perfect word for my beautiful but slightly (okay, very) insane life.
