Hello! I’m Alessia, the hands behind Nina Handmade.

I am Italian and I live in Lisbon, Portugal. What started as a hobby slowly became a way to turn simple pieces into something personal and meaningful. I love using embroidery to tell small stories and celebrate the things we care about most.

The name Nina comes from my dog. That’s how pet portraits became a big part of Nina Handmade: little stitched memories made to last.

If you’re looking for a handmade piece full of personality, for yourself or as a special gift, you’re in the right place✨
