We're Stuck With You. And We Wouldn't Have It Any Other Way.
Hi, we're Bryan and Alyssa — a father and daughter from Ely, Minnesota, and we are the heart, hands, and humor behind Stuck With You Design Co.
Every magnet we make is handcrafted by us, right here in Ely. No factories. No outsourcing. Just two people who love making things, love making people laugh, and love the idea that something small and magnetic can hold a memory you'll see every single day.
How It All Started
It started at the farmers market!
Alyssa and I were walking the stalls, soaking in everything the local vendors had made, when I stopped in front of a collage frame filled with photos. Something about it hit me. All these moments, visible — not buried in someone's phone or lost in the cloud. Alyssa and I had already been kicking around the idea of making photo magnets after coming across a creator who was doing exactly that, and standing there looking at that frame, it all came together.
This was it. This was what we could build together.
We're the kind of people who love a good meme, appreciate a well-timed pun, and are always looking for ways to make someone's day a little better. I'd stepped away from a job that was anything but exciting, and we wanted to create something that was ours — something creative, something fun, something that could support us while also putting a little more joy into the world.
And honestly? The name wrote itself.
Stuck With You. Alyssa and I are stuck with each other — in the best possible way. Our ideas are meant to stick with you. Magnets literally stick to things, move around, and stick again. We're stuck to this community, to this craft, and to the belief that life is better with a little humor and a lot of heart. It all just fit.
Why Magnets? (The Real Answer)
Here's something that bothers us: you probably have thousands of photos on your phone right now. Beautiful ones. Hilarious ones. Ones that make your heart full just looking at them. And most of them? Buried. Forgotten. Swallowed by the cloud.
We used to flip through photo albums. We used to have pictures on the fridge, on the walls, in frames on the coffee table. Somewhere along the way, our memories went digital — and invisible.
We want to change that.
A Stuck With You magnet takes a photo you love — a face, a moment, a memory, a joke — and puts it somewhere you'll actually see it. On your fridge. Your locker. Your filing cabinet. Your office whiteboard. Somewhere real, somewhere physical, somewhere that makes you smile on a Monday morning when you need it most.
We even bring our setup to farmers markets and live events, where we can create your custom magnet right in front of you — on the spot, while you wait. Because there's something magical about watching a memory become something you can hold in your hands.
Ely, Minnesota — Our Home.
I was born in Ely, moved around a lot over the years, and came back about 25 years ago. Alyssa was born here and has been here her whole life. We continue to actively choose this place — not because we have to, but because it's genuinely great. The community, the people, the outdoors, the Boundary Waters right in our backyard. Ely gets into your bones.
Starting something here matters to us. When you support Stuck With You Design Co., you're not just getting a magnet — you're helping a small family business do what it loves in a town we're proud to call home. That means something to us every single day.
