Hi there! I’m McKenna Hubbard, the creator of Creatively McKenna, a Knoxville-based small business specializing in handmade stationery and custom paper goods.

I was born and raised in Knoxville, Tennessee, and I’m the oldest of my sisters. Growing up, I was always exploring new hobbies, from guitar lessons to soccer practice to art classes. In middle school and high school, graphic design captured my attention. I began to think about turning creativity into a career. That was the beginning of Creatively McKenna, my small business focused on creating meaningful, handmade designs.

When my sisters and I were little, we spent hours in our chaotic, fun playroom. We often pretended to run a school or a business. This imagination was inspired by my mom and aunt’s small stationery brand, which they ran out of our home. Watching them sparked my passion for creating physical art for others to enjoy.

With Creatively McKenna, I strive to make every product feel handmade and personal. Each piece of stationery or paper good is designed by me with a specific purpose and audience in mind. I believe in creating meaningful designs, creatively made.
