Carly Quinn Designs Expands with the Rebirth of Earthtones Tile

I hope this message finds you well. First and foremost, I want to personally thank you for trusting me with your custom tile projects and for being a valued part of my artistic journey. Your support has allowed me to grow, create, and bring vibrant, handcrafted tile art into more homes and businesses than I ever imagined.

Today, I’m thrilled to share some exciting news that marks a new chapter for Carly Quinn Designs, and for handcrafted tile lovers everywhere.

A Bold Step Forward: A New Studio and an Exciting Acquisition

Over the past year, Carly Quinn Designs has been growing rapidly, and to keep up with demand, I’ve made a big move, literally. I recently purchased a new building that will serve as a hub for expansion, creativity, and even more stunning tile designs. As we remodel and settle into this new space, I’ve also taken another major step forward, acquiring Hand-N-Hand Designs, a longtime Tucson maker of beautiful, hand-glazed ceramic tiles.

Since 1981, Hand-N-Hand Designs has been a respected name in the world of handcrafted tiles, known for their unique address number tiles and beautifully designed gifts. With this acquisition, I am honored to carry forward their legacy while infusing it with the bold artistic vision that defines Carly Quinn Designs.

The Return of Earthtones Tile

As part of this exciting transition, Hand-N-Hand Designs will be reborn under a familiar name, Earthtones Tile. This brand name honors its original roots while embracing a fresh, new era of tile artistry. Earthtone Tile will continue to offer the high-quality, hand-glazed ceramic pieces that customers have loved for decades, and the rebrand will come with a retro-inspired aesthetic that celebrates bold color, playful patterns, and timeless craftsmanship.

All of this will be happening right here in our Tucson, Arizona factory, where our expanded team will continue crafting beautiful, one-of-a-kind tiles. Inspired by the vibrant landscapes of the Southwest, Earthtones Tile will blend tradition with innovation, keeping the spirit of handmade craftsmanship alive.

Two Unique Brands, One Passion for Tile Art

While Earthtones Tile will focus on colorful, retro-inspired ceramic gifts and address tiles, Carly Quinn Designs will remain a separate fine art tile company specializing in intricate, custom designs and large-scale installations. This expansion allows us to serve a wider range of customers, from those looking for timeless home accents to those seeking highly detailed, custom tile murals. Both brands share a passion for handcrafted excellence, and I’m excited to see them grow side by side.

What This Means for You

If you’ve previously purchased from Hand-N-Hand Designs, rest assured, your favorite products, including address tiles and giftable ceramic art, will remain available under the Earthtones Tile brand. In fact, you’ll soon see new designs and collections that celebrate both the rich history of the brand and the creative evolution ahead.

For my longtime customers at Carly Quinn Designs, this expansion means even more opportunities to bring handcrafted tile art into your life. Whether you’re looking for a bold statement piece, perfect gift, or a personalized touch for your home, the future is filled with exciting possibilities.

Thank You for Being Part of the Journey

This is a thrilling time for Carly Quinn Designs and Earthtones Tile, and I couldn’t have done it without you, my loyal customers, supporters, and friends. I can’t wait to share more updates as we bring this vision to life and continue crafting beautiful, meaningful tile art for homes, businesses, and collectors across the country.

With gratitude and excitement,
Carly Quinn
