Our story
Oliver Lane Co. was founded by Shayna Lane in January of 2020- I (Shayna) have spent the majority of my adult life working in Law Enforcement and I left my career to stay home with my wild child Oliver. I quickly realized that I wanted to do something from home to bring in an income. Oliver Lane originally started as a children’s clothing boutique but with COVID and all of the shipping delays, I started my research on different avenues and eventually went back to my roots.
In high school, I excelled in all things art, painting, and woodworking. So I started college to become an art teacher to share my passion for art with the world. In a crazy turn of events, I ended up getting multiple degrees in general studies, criminal justice, and addiction studies and excelled in my career in Law Enforcement. But sometimes you have to leave one dream to chase another.. being a business owner has always been a pipe dream of mine and I am thrilled to say I am just that, a business owner.
My dad introduced me to the laser world when he showed me the Glowforge and made a comment saying that I would do well with one. After a few months of talking about it, I made the plunge and purchased my first laser. Within 3 weeks of owning my hobby laser, I invested in an industrial laser. Now I maintain a fully functioning business out of our spare bedroom while chasing my toddler around. I couldn’t run this business without the help of a few very special people; you guys know who you are. I would not be successful without every one of you guys.
Oliver Lane has turned into a one-stop-shop for all things custom from laser cutting and engraving to embroidery and sublimation. We have shipped to 46 out of 50 states since July of 2020. In September we decided to open up wholesale contracts for our products- so if you know a vendor looking for products let us know we would love to connect!
