ABOUT ATYPICALLY MADE

Made for minds that wander.

Hi, I’m Amber — the human behind Atypically Made.

This started with a love of making things, finding things, and getting way too excited about the kinds of little objects that make your brain immediately go, “Oooh. I need to touch that.”

Atypically Made is full of colorful, tactile, fun, wonderfully distracting things. Some are 3D printed by me. Some are finds I loved enough to bring along for the ride. Some are useful. Some are sensory. Some are just ridiculously cute.

And sometimes that is the entire point.

I wanted this shop to feel like wandering through a really good vendor table: there’s always something to pick up, fiddle with, inspect, laugh at, or unexpectedly fall in love with.

There’s a definite neurodivergent heartbeat underneath Atypically Made, but this isn’t a store about fitting people into a category. It’s about the opposite.

Like what you like. Collect the tiny thing. Touch the fidget. Pick the ridiculous color. Get overly excited about the jellyfish keychain.

Your brain does not have to justify why something makes it happy.

Why “Atypically Made”?

Because typical was never really the assignment.

The name fits the things I make, the things I choose, and the people I hope feel at home here: curious people, colorful people, sensory people, collectors, wanderers, fidgeters, gift-givers, and anyone whose brain occasionally sees something and immediately decides:

That. I want that.

Atypically Made is based in Auburn, New York, and you’ll find me both online and popping up at local markets and vendor events.

Follow your curiosity. We did.
