From Hobby to Handmade Business
Hey Prints Studios began in February 2025 as a simple creative outlet. Both Hanzel and Diana are self-confessed gamers, and much of their inspiration comes from the worlds, characters and nostalgic moments they’ve experienced through gaming.
What started as experimenting with ideas soon grew into a small business built around creating pieces that spark joy.
“We hope our work inspires people to slow down, get creative, and surround themselves with things that make them smile,” they share.
That sense of creativity and playfulness runs through everything they make.
Every product from Hey Prints Studios is created in their mini home studio, where design and production come together.
Their process begins with 3D modelling, which is often the most time-intensive stage. Some designs can take days or even weeks to refine before they’re ready to print. From there, pieces are brought to life using PLA, a biodegradable and plant-based material derived from sources like corn starch or sugarcane.
The printing process itself can take hours, sometimes even days, depending on the complexity of the design.
Once printed, many items are carefully assembled and finished by hand, ensuring each piece meets their standards before it reaches customers.
Alongside their own designs, they also support other creators by working with Patreon artists and purchasing licensed 3D files, which they then print and bring to life.
