OMG Friends!® were created by Ryan, a designer who lives in Portland, OR. Ryan is passionate about cute things, teaching, learning, craftsmanship, bringing delightful things into the world, and helping and supporting others. All of these things are fundamental parts of the OMG Friends!™ brand.

OMG Friends are called ‘friends’ because they promote the qualities of friendship. Qualities like caring, compassion, kindness, integrity, honesty, loyalty, patience and understanding.

Ryan’s obsession with cute began at an early age, when he pretty much refused to eat anything that wasn’t cute. A strict diet of marshmallows, cupcakes, waffles and gummy bears was the fuel he needed to transmogrify himself into a cute-dispensing machine. When Ryan moved to Portland he knew the place could use some more cute (what place couldn’t?), so the OMG Friends were born.
