About

Our Story

Welcome to Lorri Melas Home Goods & Decor, a heart-led online retail company that believes in transforming houses into homes and everyday routines into rituals. Offering an inspiring collection of home essentials, personal care products, novelties, and more, we are more than just a brand – we're a community that cherishes style, comfort, and individuality.

Our journey began in 2018 as ARTISTRY by L.A., a humble initiative born out of a love for crafting watercolor paintings, handmade coasters, and charming trinkets. What initially sprouted as a hobby for a stay-at-home mom quickly blossomed into a full-fledged passion, giving life to an entrepreneurial dream. By the close of that year, a pastime had evolved into a thriving business, redefining our understanding of success.


With the vision to expand our horizons and reach a wider audience, we embarked on a new adventure in 2021 by opening a storefront at a local market in Hollywood, Florida. This phase was characterized by a focus on tumblers and coasters, an exciting journey that brought learning and growth for our business and family alike. Our four-year-old son often accompanied us to the store every weekend, showcasing his budding talent as a charismatic little salesman.

Today, we stand stronger and more passionate than ever, eager to share our creative offerings with the world.


But you may be wondering, who is Lorri?

Meet Lorri, the indomitable spirit behind our brand. Born in New York and raised in the Dominican Republic, Lorri is a mother to two beautiful children, Adrian, 5, and Ava, 1. Juggling roles as a mom, wife, entrepreneur, and full-time college student studying Health Science with a concentration on Mental Health, Lorri is a testament to the power of passion and determination. She's an artist, a handy-woman, a star-gazer, and an ever-ready participant for a cup of tea or a round of karaoke.

We are grateful to each and every one of you for being a part of our journey. Your support fuels our creative spirit, and we hope our products bring joy and comfort to your lives. 

Meet Manny Melas - the unsung hero of the company. Working hand in hand with his wife, Lorri, the creative force of the brand, Manny propels the business towards new heights. Behind the scenes, he helps with operations and finding fresh avenues for company growth. He has a crazy determination to deliver top-notch service and help others.

When he's not working full-time or talking Home Goods with Lorri, Manny is a music enthusiast who loves quality time with his family and going to the beach. If there's meditation, personal development, or sales involved, count him in.
