Maison Du Lagniappe is our family’s faith-rooted, woman- and veteran-owned studio in Alexandria, Louisiana. As a breast cancer survivor, Michelle brings gratitude and grit to every piece—laser-cut wood and acrylic signs, ornaments, wreaths, and personalized gifts. We design with purpose, finish with lagniappe (a little something extra), and aim for quick, caring turnaround—so your moments feel seen and celebrated.

Give a Little Something Extra — Straight from the Heart
At Maison du Lagniappe, every gift is crafted with meaning. Whether it’s a keepsake ornament, a custom sign, or a hand-painted portrait, I believe the best gifts are personal — the kind that make someone feel truly seen and loved. Each piece is thoughtfully designed, handcrafted, and finished with that special lagniappe touch that turns a simple gift into a treasured memory.

Bring a Little Lagniappe to Every Corner
At Maison du Lagniappe, every décor piece tells a story — a blend of artistry, craftsmanship, and that unmistakable Louisiana charm. From hand-painted wooden signs to delicate seasonal displays, each creation is designed to add warmth, beauty, and personality to your home. No two pieces are ever alike, ensuring your décor is as unique as you are.
At Maison du Lagniappe, I offer bespoke painting services that bring a touch of personal artistry to your space. Whether you're looking for a unique portrait, a vibrant landscape, or a custom piece that tells your story, each painting is crafted with the same care and creativity that defines all my work.

Celebrate Every Season with a Little Lagniappe
At Maison du Lagniappe, I believe every season deserves to sparkle. From Christmas ornaments that twinkle with warmth to cheerful signs that welcome the holidays, each piece is handmade to bring joy, color, and a touch of Louisiana charm to your celebrations. Every festive creation carries that “little something extra” — the heart, care, and creativity that make your décor feel truly special.

Handcrafted Art, Made Just for You
At Maison du Lagniappe, creativity meets craftsmanship in every bespoke piece I create. From intricate woodwork to hand-painted details, each design is made to order, reflecting your story, your style, and that touch of Southern artistry that makes it one-of-a-kind. No mass production — just genuine, heartfelt creations crafted with patience, passion, and a little lagniappe.
Make something beautiful—together.
