ALL I WANTED TO BE WHEN I GREW UP WAS A:
Stay at home mom with a billion dollars, a nanny, 2 chefs, 3 maids, liposuction & a boob job.
Gia Roma was a close 2nd place. Since I'm not a billionaire yet, here we are ;)
Pandemic Woes
Picture this: a journey sparked by the demise of my husband's 15+ year business closing during the pandemic. Merging with a decade of my online graphic design business; becomes the birth of quirky, timeless home goodies. AKA Gia Roma.
Tucked away in Upstate, NY, we're not just an online store; we're a vibe baby!

Meet the team
The Owner
Hey there! I'm Angela, the hot mess mom behind Gia Roma. I live off coffee, have an addiction to Polly-O Cheese Sticks and a naughty late night Ben & Jerry's habit.
The Box Stuffer
I'm Chris. Slowly learning that my wife is always right. Obsessed with LFC. I also coach kids Soccer, can fix almost anything, and can fall asleep within 2 seconds of laying down.
Chaos Coordinators
Gia & Parker. Love to give our mom gray hairs + help dad bald by tormenting each other. Gia loves all holidays, chocolate, taking care of others & anything arts/crafts. Parker loves sports, gaming, Hot Cheetos + Ramen.
The Protector
This is Ollie, he was rescued from a Kill Shelter down South and the only Family Member Angela has been able to train thus far. He will do zoomies longer than any dog you know & helps break down boxes by ripping them to shreds.

GET REAL & GET LAUGHING
With Style & Humor
The expectations set by social media for parents, especially mothers, felt overwhelmingly unrealistic to me. The constant portrayal of flawless lives with pristine homes and perfect parenting painted an unattainable picture for most of us.
OUR AIM
Through our products and our online presence, is to normalize the genuine feelings we all experience. Whether it's admitting to feeling "tired as a mother" or acknowledging when the kids are being "sassholes" – it's about embracing the messiness of real life.
It's perfectly alright not to have everything under control constantly, to feel stressed, and to embrace the chaos.
In my view, laughter acts as a powerful remedy on the toughest days. Additionally, having a supportive community to rely on during these times is invaluable.
