By: Coral & Tusk

To our excitement, New York Magazine's The Strategist featured our limited edition Mushroom House and Woodland Guest set in the November 2024 issue! *Updated May 2026
 
One of the best things about the Christmas growing up was the catalogs that came early and poring over everything you wanted to buy. We got that feeling again when we opened the new issue of New York Magazine with The Strategist's Holiday Gift Guide! 

What New York Magazine's The Strategist said:   

"An all- felt embroidered creation that comes with four woodland creatures that seem very down for a tea party.” — the strategist

Born and raised in the Ohio Valley, Stephanie Housley studied textile design at RISD and worked as a professional interior textile designer in New York City. After fifteen years in the industry, Stephanie founded Coral & Tusk with a single embroidery machine in her Brooklyn apartment. With her strong design background, inherent resourcefulness and the initial help of her husband Chris Lacinak, Stephanie transformed her passion project into a well-loved brand and independent business.

As Coral & Tusk has evolved over the years, Stephanie’s hand-drawn, machine-embroidered illustrations remain the company’s connecting thread. In 2016, after nearly two decades living in New York, Stephanie and Chris relocated to Wyoming. They share their mountain home with their rescue dogs Papi and Penny.
