Meet Jill Conlin

Today we’d like to introduce you to Jill Conlin. They and their team shared their story with us below:

Conlin Designs is a husband-and-wife team with a passion for creating, intertwining form and function making jewelry and wood furniture. The progression for hobby, to passion, to business was quite natural for Luke and Jill, officially starting the business in 2019. Luke is a second-generation woodworker that has spent his entire life learning and creating custom woodcrafts large and small, from furniture to cutting boards. Jill has been a creator and crafter from a very early age, making jewelry and art. On the furniture side of the business, the focus is building pieces that will endure time while being aesthetically pleasing; and the jewelry is fun and fashionable. Their shop is located in Navasota, and they sell jewelry and cutting boards in Southern Charm Boutique in Navasota. They attend several markets in Texas each year during the fall and Christmas seasons.

I’m sure you wouldn’t say it’s been obstacle free, but so far would you say the journey has been a fairly smooth road?
We look at this business as a way to spend time together and challenge our creativity. I wouldn’t say that we have had struggles, but I feel like we are constantly learning and adapting. Every business has its ups and downs, but we pick projects and products that we want to work on and want to produce, so it’s a passion for us rather than a job. 

Thanks – so, what else should our readers know about your work and what you’re currently focused on?
Conlin Designs is really two parts, one part woodworking, and one part jewelry design. Luke is known for his meticulous attention to detail and craftsmanship. His knowledge of wood species and their strengths allows him to build products and furniture that will last for years. He is also very creative, which has driven many of our charcuterie boards designs. When it comes to woodworking, our quality in the materials and processes used sets us apart, and we always want our customers to be happy. When it comes to the jewelry that Jill makes, she is known for “mixing it up” with different colors and materials while staying on trend. 

Before we go, is there anything else you can share with us?
We are very appreciative of all our customers who have trusted us to provide them with a product and service they can cherish for generations. If you are looking for a custom piece of furniture or wood countertop, please reach out! We would love to work with you.
