Born from Heart and Fire: The Story Behind Ink and Magnets

Born from Heart and Fire: The Story Behind Ink and Magnets

It all started with a heartbeat — the kind that lives in every photo, every memory, every magnetic moment of the heart.

That heartbeat became Milestone Magnets (established 2024), a brand built on keepsakes, love, and family memories pressed into something tangible from each magnetic moment of the heart. Every piece was a quiet tribute to what matters most — the everyday faces and moments that pull us back to ourselves.

But the heart’s not all soft edges — mine burns with humor, fire, and a craving for truth that never did sit quietly in the “wholesome” corner. My own magnet collection was full of novelty pieces that could lift your mood, make you laugh, or leave you wondering if I was okay — and that contrast lit something in me.

Milestone Magnets was born to celebrate photo memories, but I found myself drawn to create pieces that speak from every chapter I've already lived — bold, funny, and unapologetically real. I’d bring novelty magnets from my personal collection, and they started catching attention and a lot of laughs at craft and vendor events. People didn’t just see magnets; they saw themselves. That’s when I stopped holding back. Rebranding wasn’t just a business move — it was me, giving myself the grace and permission to live out loud. That’s when Ink + Magnets took its first real breath.

Embracing both sides — the light and the fire — and becoming the truest reflection of who I am, and what this brand stands for.


From Sentiment to Spark

Ink + Magnets isn’t a departure from Milestone — it’s the evolution of it.
Milestone Magnets spoke from the quiet side of the heart. Ink + Magnets speaks from the soft, the savage, and everything between. Our heart is fierce, our tongue is sharp, and both are honest and true.
They’re two sides of the same creative soul: one shaped by tenderness and light, the other fueled by depth, wit, and heat.

Every design here — whether heartfelt, cheeky, or bold — is made from that same current of energy. It’s art that sticks, both literally and emotionally. Because life isn’t one tone, one vibe, or one mood. It’s a whole collage — equal parts love note and sarcasm, softness and spark — a space where you can be your whole self.


The Magnetic Middle

Magnets might be small, but they hold space for big things.

They live on fridges and filing cabinets, in your shop or office, but they also live in our daily rhythm — holding reminders, stories, laughter, and sometimes even truth bombs we didn’t know we needed.

That’s the power of Ink + Magnets.
Every piece is hand-pressed, intentional, and born from both heart and fire — from the gentle moments that ground us to the raw ones that remind us we’re alive.


What We Believe

We believe art should speak — even if it whispers, laughs, or drops an f-bomb.
We believe sentiment and sarcasm can coexist.
We believe the smallest things can hold the biggest meaning — that a magnet can be both a keepsake filled with personal memories and a mood that mirrors our personalities, quirks, and relatable truths.

Ink + Magnets is where that balance lives.
It’s where light meets dark, love meets wit, and heart meets fire.


From Milestone to Ink + Magnets — and Everything Between

Milestone Magnets will always be part of our story — the warm beginning that was built on a foundation of love, family, and our memories.
Ink + Magnets carries that legacy forward, but with a spark that says feel everything, say everything, and don’t apologize for it.

Because whether it’s a heartfelt keepsake or a cheeky truth on your fridge, it all comes from the same creative core —
magnetic works of heart, charged with a little more fire.
