About Prairie Hills Studio 🌿

Hi, I’m Kayla — the heart and hands behind Prairie Hills Studio. Living and working in the wide-open landscapes of Nebraska for the past several years, I find endless inspiration in the rolling prairies, native plants, buzzing pollinators, and quiet wildlife that surround me. My career in natural resources has deepened my connection to these landscapes, and through my art, I’m able to blend that love of the natural world with my passion for vintage stationery and illustration.

I’ve always been drawn to the charm of old papers, botanical prints, and the timeless beauty of illustrators from the past. Their delicate lines, thoughtful details, and celebration of nature inspire much of my work today. Every piece in my shop — from handmade stationery and illustrated cards to curated vintage paper finds — is created with care and intention, often using natural themes, soft textures, and echoes of the past.

My hope is that Prairie Hills Studio captures the quiet magic of the prairie while honoring the artistry of vintage illustration, inviting you to slow down, savor the details, and reconnect with the beauty of both nature and history — one handwritten note, one pressed flower, one carefully chosen piece of paper at a time.
