A holiday BuzzFeed post brought lots of attention to Kate Hougen’s one-year-old custom textile company this past year.
And keeping with the momentum, the Arlington-based designer is bringing her wares to more local stores with hopes to go national. –Lynn Norusis

The name MiraJean Designs was inspired by Mira, Hougen’s daughter, and Jean, her mother, “the two people in my life that have inspired me. My mother encourages me to pursue a career that you love and is meaningful. My daughter is just very creative, very artistic and loves art.”
Available in local stores: Covet and La Maison Home and Gifts in Arlington; Reunions in Alexandria; and this spring: Red Barn Merchantile in Alexandria, Hardwood Artisans in Shirlington and Two the Moon in Arlington
Price range: custom yard of fabric starts at $95; pillows and throws $125; poufs $225, tea towels $28 in set designs
