Our History

Charlie & Kona LLC was founded in 2023 as a family-owned business inspired by years of creating personalized, meaningful gifts. As a certified wedding and event planner, I’ve always valued thoughtful details and the joy of giving something special.

Our name comes from our beloved dogs, Charlie and Kona, whose love and personalities inspire the warmth and heart behind our brand. Created in honor of my husband’s journey with Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD), and as a creative outlet for our children, our business blends family, purpose, and passion to create gifts that feel truly personal.

We believe that the best gifts are the ones made with intention and heart. As a family-owned and operated business, we value quality craftsmanship, creativity, and the meaningful connections that personalized items help create.

We are committed to thoughtful design, authenticity, and making every piece with care. Our work is rooted in connection and community, supporting causes close to our hearts, including Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia awareness and grounded in the joy that comes from giving something truly special.

Every product is handcrafted with care and designed to bring joy, meaning, and personal connection. We offer a curated selection of custom-made items including apparel, drinkware, home décor, gifts, and everyday keepsakes, each thoughtfully created to reflect your story or celebrate life’s special moments.

From personalized vinyl designs to handmade tumblers, clothing, and unique accessories, our products blend creativity, quality, and heart. Whether you’re shopping for yourself or choosing a meaningful gift, we’re committed to making items that feel special, purposeful, and truly one-of-a-kind.
