Curlworks is an artistic collaboration between husbands Olly Gibbs and Keaton V.H. Founded in 2015, we design and handcraft bespoke goods out of our studio in beautiful artsy Northeast Minneapolis. Our roots are in our handcrafted custom kigurumi, but we've expanded our scope to accessories, apparel, stationary, and plush. We've partnered with brands, and always love a collaboration.
We have a fondness for funky critters, beautiful nature, and activism 🏳️🌈.
