About Us

Hi! We’re Theresa and Jenn, the creative duo behind The Vinyl Elephant — a design studio built on personalization, creativity, and a whole lot of heart.

What started as a love for creating meaningful, personalized gifts has grown into a full-service design studio specializing in custom merchandise, seasonal collections, and one-of-a-kind designs. We believe great design tells a story — and helps people celebrate moments big, small, and everything in between.

The Vinyl Elephant was founded in 2020, when Theresa turned a spark of creativity into a small business during a time when connection mattered more than ever. What began as custom gifts quickly evolved into a way to bring people together through thoughtful, handcrafted designs.

So… why The Vinyl Elephant?
Vinyl represents the medium that started it all — the hands-on craft of turning blank items into something meaningful. The elephant symbolizes memory, loyalty, and community. Elephants never forget, they protect their herd, and they move with purpose — just like the stories, milestones, and people we create for.

In 2025, Jenn joined the herd as a designer, blending her creative eye and fandom-loving heart with Theresa’s vision to expand our custom designs, seasonal drops, and fandom-inspired collections.

At The Vinyl Elephant, we design with intention, create with care, and believe every herd has a story worth telling. Whether you’re shopping for a personalized gift, custom merch, or a limited-edition holiday or fandom collection — we can’t wait to help you tell yours.
