Hello, I’m Tanis — the maker and heart behind Created Mother.
What started as a creative outlet during surgery recovery — with three kids running around me and projects spread across the kitchen table — has grown into a full-time, women-owned business with over 100 retail connections across North America. What began as a personal journey of creativity has transformed into a mission: to craft products that bring comfort, style, and joy to everyday life.
When I’m not creating or packing orders, you’ll find me at the gym, learning a new skill just for fun, soaking up the sun, or fully immersed in family time. Those everyday moments inspire everything I design.
What We Do
Created Mother is where style, comfort, and care come together. We offer a curated selection of trendy, handmade scrunchies, stylish bows, and versatile hair claws — perfect for everyday wear or special occasions.
Our beloved Hot/Cold Therapy Packs provide natural relief and comfort in a variety of fun shapes, bringing soothing care to both kids and adults.
Every product we create is designed with intention, whether it’s to elevate your daily routine, simplify your life, or make a thoughtful gift. Handmade in Canada, our products reflect our dedication to quality, practicality, and beauty.
Our Values
- Connection: We believe our products help foster meaningful connections — whether through gifting, thoughtful gestures, or simply saving time in your busy life.
- Generosity: Giving back is at the core of Created Mother. We donate 10% of our revenue to local women’s shelters and food banks, and we integrate sustainable practices into our product lines, like our waste-not scrunchies. Radical generosity is our joy, and every purchase contributes to spreading love, care, and warmth.
- Community-Minded: Beyond financial contributions, we strive to cultivate a community of care and inspiration. Our mission is to give without expectation, creating a ripple effect of kindness and connection.
