Our Story
Rustic Threads began with a simple love for creating comfort by hand. What started as quiet evenings crocheting cozy blankets for family soon blossomed into a full-blown passion for crafting pieces that carry warmth, personality, and purpose. Inspired by the textures of nature and the charm of Southern living, each item—from chunky throws to festive wreaths and rustic wood décor—is made with intention and a touch of nostalgia.
Founder Heather Chiasson & Paula Comeaux turned their creative spark into a small business rooted in authenticity. Every stitch, knot, and brushstroke reflects her belief that handmade items tell stories—of seasons, celebrations, and the homes they belong to. Rustic Threads isn’t just about crafts; it’s about connection. Whether it’s a loop yarn pumpkin that brightens a mantel or a ribbon rose bouquet gifted with love, each piece is designed to bring joy and character to everyday life.

Our Inspiration
Inspiration for Rustic Threads comes from the everyday beauty of Southern life—slow mornings, warm gatherings, and the textures of nature that surround us here in Louisiana. Heather finds magic in the changing seasons: the golden tones of fall leaves, the cozy chill of winter, the fresh blooms of spring, and the sun-soaked charm of summer porches.
Her designs are often sparked by:
Family Moments: A quiet evening with loved ones or a memory from childhood can become the seed for a new blanket pattern or wreath style.
Local Scenery: Rustic wood, cotton fields, vintage lace, and bayou blues—these elements shape the palette and feel of each creation.
Festive Spirit: Holidays and seasonal traditions inspire décor that brings joy and celebration into every corner of the home.
Customer Stories: Sometimes, a message from a customer or a custom request leads to a design.
Our Core Values
At Rustic Threads, every creation is guided by values that run deeper than fabric and fiber. These are the principles that shape each stitch, each sale, and every connection made along the way:
Authenticity: We believe in staying true to our roots—Southern charm, handmade craftsmanship, and designs that reflect real life, not trends.
Heartfelt Craftsmanship: Every item is made with care, intention, and love. We don’t just make products—we create pieces that carry warmth and meaning.

Quality Over Quantity: We value durability, comfort, and timeless style. No shortcuts, no mass production—just honest work that lasts.
Celebrating the Seasons: Life is full of moments worth marking. We design with the rhythm of the year, helping homes feel festive, cozy, and alive.
