Welcome to Dogwood Dunes: Southern Coastal Simplicity

Born from a love of southern charm, coastal tranquility, and the simple elegance found in both, we believe in elevating the everyday. Dogwood Dunes is dedicated to showcasing local artisans and helping you create beautiful, unique spaces. We focus on distinctive, small-batch, handcrafted goods and luxurious linens. But more than just beautiful pieces, Dogwood Dunes is about bringing a sense of place into your home, a home that tells your story and reflects the richness of life in North Carolina and all across the American landscape.

As a North Carolina native, I've been blessed to spend my summers at the beautiful NC coast. Here, warm southern traditions and the simple things, like a Saturday night fish fry or kids playing on the beach, feel like the most meaningful parts of life. These memories and experiences shaped my vision for Dogwood Dunes. 

I love exploring local vendor fairs and small town markets. The more I met and spoke with talented artisans, learning the stories behind their work and the passion that drives them, the more their work inspired me. In a world where handmade craftsmanship is becoming a lost art, these pieces stand out not only for their beauty but also for the skill, time, and heart poured into them.

One of the first artists to inspire me was my beautiful sister-in-law Emily. Her coastal-inspired art is full of life, capturing the movement of the sea, the serenity of the shore, and the untamed beauty of nature in a way that brings me such joy. After acquiring multiple pieces for my own home, I realized it would be such a shame not to share her incredible talent with the world. 

Then, while visiting a vendor market in Beaufort, NC, I met Laura Welborn and was immediately drawn to her stunning, handcrafted baskets. The attention to detail, the organic textures, and the way she weaves natural elements into each piece embody everything I love about true craftsmanship.

Dogwood Dunes is more than an online boutique, it’s a reflection of the lifestyle we love. Inspired by the soothing colors of the sea and the warmth of southern hospitality, our collections are designed to help you create a home that feels uniquely yours.

We believe in quality over quantity, offering handcrafted goods that celebrate artistry, function, and timeless beauty. In a world of mass production, we’re committed to supporting artisans and bringing you pieces with meaning, ones you’ll cherish for years to come. 

We invite you to start your search with our Heart of Carolina Collection, featuring a curated selection of handmade treasures that celebrate the beauty, culture, and traditions of the Tar Heel State.
