Curly & Caffeinated is the creative expression of artist Jessica Manelis, on a mission to plant seeds of positivity in everyday life.

Our designs blend whimsical details with bold botanical elements, creating an aesthetic that is undeniably joyful. We are a little obsessed with florals, and it shows—our pieces are all about capturing the vibrant energy of the outdoors and bringing it into your personal space.

Jessica’s love for art began with traditional sketching, but today she brings her floral worlds to life on her iPad. This digital approach allows her to combine the soul of hand-drawn illustration with bold, scalable versatility—perfect for modern products. Flowers remain her favorite muse, offering an endless array of shapes and colors that tell a story of their own.

At Curly & Caffeinated, we believe in embracing life’s beauty the way flowers do—uniquely, colorfully, and unapologetically.

Based in New Jersey, Curly & Caffeinated is a flower-centric design studio. While our roots are in stationery and gifts, our passion has grown into creating art for outdoor living and home decor. From garden flags that greet your guests to kitchen textiles that brighten your morning routine, our goal is to create designs that are fun, uplifting, and bring a little "happy" to your day.

Together, we'll discuss and settle on payment terms. I’ll maintain the copyright to my artwork, but you’ll have the rights to use it on your products for a specified time. I’ll also provide you with fully prepared, production-ready files. From there, you’re all set to bring the product to life!
