About Us
Creativity. Vision. Passion. Happiness.
This is what Tanya Linn Collections has been about since the day it was dreamt. We love the timeless and elegant styles of contemporary and traditional accents. So we began with building an online space for shopping and fulfilling your senses with collections of colors and styles.
Our online mission is to inspire you to create your own positive environment and creative energy as well as inspire those around you. We value our customers and strive for success in cultivating relationships with professionalism, trust and honesty.
TLC's mission statement centers around timeless design, outstanding quality, exceptional customer service and an experience for reinvention and creativity.
Founders
TLC's journey began while living in Long Island City, NY. Living on the east river, surrounded by the beautiful NY architecture, Tanya wanted to continue the dream of reaching people through design and home accents. Adopted at 6, she grew up in rural Kansas on a farm and since then she has had the opportunity to travel and live in some exceptional cities and communities. She is a positive and social person and believes in dreaming in triple X-Large.
As a serial entrepreneur she has had the privilege of being a part of several startup companies. Tanya Co-founded Brick Street Furniture Co. + Wine Lounge in 2017 with a vision to have a place for people to shop, eat, drink and socialize. Brick Street is a home decor, furniture store with a full restaurant/bar and bakery. At the time, it boasted the only Wine Dispensers in Kansas. It continues to be a successful destination for surrounding communities in Kansas. Although she has moved on from Brick Street, she has a special fondness for her first Creative Business. She continues her dream and passion through Tanya Linn Collections by offering beautiful and unique style with her products with a future goal of another brick and mortar location.
