LisaSarah Celebrates 18 Years of Art, Garden Decor & Custom Steel Signs!

January 08, 2025

LisaSarah Celebrates 18 Years! 

This month marks a monumental milestone for LisaSarah, as we celebrate 18 years of creating with steel. Starting from humble beginnings, we've grown into one of New Zealand's largest online stores for original garden art and decor and we've become the premium choice for designer custom house signage.  It’s been an adventure!  Let’s take a moment to look back at our achievements.

The Beginning of a Beautiful Journey

It all started by chance  – when designer Lisa Turley moved homes and needed garden art to hide an ugly feature wall in the newly landscaped garden.  The Landscape Designer told her there wasn't much on the market and suggested she "google it".

Lisa researched the best materials and set about creating her own.  With a desire to create, a growing passion for steel, together with interior design training, Lisa launched her brand "LisaSarah" in 2007.  Her brand quickly became synonymous with quality, minimalist design and meticulous attention to detail. 

Highlights include:

• 2009 - the curator of her first exhibition advised he could have sold Lisa's piece, "Our World" three times over in the short duration of the show.
• 2010 - launching a sellout wholesale collection at the New Zealand Gift & Homeware Fair - picking up 100 retail stockists almost overnight. 
• 2013 - Lisa's now iconic "hello sunshine" was featured in Home Beautiful magazine.

Innovation and Excellence

Over the years, LisaSarah has introduced at least two new original collections of steel works each year.  Our commitment to using only the finest New Zealand steel, coupled with the simplicity of minimalist design, ensures that each piece is not only aesthetic but also durable.

Mid 2018, wanting to add texture to her collection of steel works, Lisa set about the search for the most eco-friendly functional and best looking rope she could find.  Lisa's rope works have since become synonymous with her brand.  Whether it’s her best-selling garden sculptures or the more recently launched wall hooks and custom address signs, every item is finished by hand by our amazing (and very valued) team.
