Our Process
HOW IT ALL STARTED
MOSSHOUND DESIGNS
est.2015
I met my husband in 2015 and he inspired me to dive deep into my love of textiles by introducing me to his family sheep farm, where we now gather the wool my art is made from. I relished in studying the history of fiber arts, its historic applications, and modern techniques.
Since opening MHD, I have dedicated myself to creating nature inspired, timeless, quality art that is symbolic of my connection with nature. It is my hope, that through my work, you may feel the warm, welcoming, soothing vibrations of the earth and all it has to offer us.
OUR SUSTAINABLE PRACTICES
Not only do we focus on creating timeless, long-lasting products with zero waste, we also work hard to source sustainable fibers and work solely with other like-minded businesses in the United States.
-
I start with fibers directly off of our sheep farm in northern Pennsylvania, then curate fibers from local hand spinners, dyers + other types of textile farm animals such as sheep, goats & alpacas.
-
All table runners, napkins and wool are dyed using the safest, highest quality MHD signature blend of natural dyes.
-
The fibers used in our wall hangings are purchased from a US based company that takes leftover waste from the garment industry and turns it in to beautifully recycled, top quality yarn and rope.
-
Here at MHD, we LOVE our senior rescue dogs! We adopt the elderly/hospice dogs directly out of the rescue and spoil them for the rest of their lives, no matter how long that may be.
I also make monthly donations to shelters all over the United States.

OWNER & ARTIST
Nicole Hemmerly
We all have places and people that shape the person we become, places and people that are the first things that pop into our minds when we think of childhood and how we grew into who we are.
For Nicole, that place is the family farm in her native northern Pennsylvania and that person is her father, a kindhearted hunter and fisherman with a deep respect for and love of nature. His love of the outdoors shaped and fostered her own and that dedication to respecting and bettering the earth instilled in her the values that Mosshound Designs was founded upon.
Mosshound Designs studio is located in Santa Rosa Beach, Florida, a place where all facets of Nicole’s life intermingle to create a haven unique to her. From the piles of driftwood (found and hand-selected by her and her husband) that will become the foundation of Nicole’s hanging pieces to the plants, rocks, and art within each room to the beautiful, vast array of fibers and textiles lining the walls, it’s clear that her studio is truly her sanctuary.
