What’s it all about?
“Little works of art with small carbon footprints” was the basis for this company when founded in 2020. What began as fairy houses and jewelry soon evolved into an entire line of whimsical, folklore-inspired artworks which span across Magic wands, Mystical potions, Enchanted fairy doors, stunning fairy houses which photos hardly do justice for and jewelry for everyday wear and cosplay.
Little Small & Co.’s collectors are imaginative thinkers who embrace the beauty of nature with deep respect. They are in-touch with their inner child and feel an overwhelming sense of nostalgia when outdoors. They’re savvy art collectors on a budget who have a keen eye for conversation pieces, and they are unafraid to believe wholeheartedly in magic.
Little Small & Co. today includes completely original artworks which are all designed and made by a single artist in Connecticut, engaging workshops and celebrations via “Little Garden Gatherings” and art collective, “Once in a Little Blue Moon” with global artists and their work which is, from start to finish, created by a single artisan.
As of 2027, Samantha’s work has been featured at Spectrum Art Gallery, The Florence Griswold Museum, Camp Harkness, The Lyme Art Academy, The Day, The E List, Riggio’s Garden Center and more. She has also earned a following of over 70,000 people from around the world on social media under @samfromlittlesmallandco where she shares a behind the scenes look at running her business, shares paranormal experiences from around the world, discusses Tv & Film such as the Netflix hit, “Stranger Things” and shares her artworks.
OWNER & ARTIST
Along the quiet beaches of New England and wandering through the forests, Samantha Barlow-Beamer grew up closely with nature on her doorstep. It was during a trip to Monhegan Island off the coast of Maine when her creative inspiration for building fairy houses and designing jewelry really took off. Monhegan Island has one rule which five-year-old Samantha never forgot and still follows today: You must only make fairy houses with natural materials which have already fallen to the ground.
for the next 30 years or so she did just that; at the bases of trees across the US and Costa Rica where she lived for a summer, Samantha built little fairy houses in the hopes to keep her childhood magic very much a part of her life. The one place she had trouble building fairy houses was in New York City where she lived and worked for ten years as a sales director for a UK based corporate consulting firm and later at a different consulting firm where she developed and launched a software integrated with AI. Trees are hard to come by in New York City, so she packed up her sticks and beads and moved back to the shoreline where she found her husband.
Today, the family travels through New England gathering natural materials for her fairy houses and visiting antique stores searching for beads to repurpose for jewelry. Samantha's art is designed to remind collectors of the beauty of nature and inspire them to continue to do what they can to preserve our incredible planet and respect our natural ecosystems.
