Our Story
The Light Factory started with a weekend project. In 2013, our founder Ashlie had just finished the renovation on her first house. A chandelier was the last touch she needed to complete her living room, but she couldn't find one that was the perfect mix of modern and playful. So she decided to create her dream chandelier! Arranging hand-blown glass bubbles into a shape reminiscent of floating clouds, Ashlie designed the first Glass Bubble Chandelier. She loved it...and so did everyone who saw it. Within a year, she had received so much interest and so many requests, that she decided to move forward with production. The first year, she worked 80 hour weeks learning, designing, and building, while always keeping her focus on quality and customer service.
Since then, The Light Factory has grown from a one-woman show to a small-but-mighty team, and our products have expanded to include a wide array of unique lighting designs and home decor. Our growth has been careful and organic, with an unwavering focus on customer satisfaction and product quality. Our pieces are still made by hand in our Pacific Northwest studio, allowing us to personalize every glass bubble light to meet your specific needs. Ashlie herself still works with clients one-on-one to create the perfect light fixture for their space and taste. We customize the bubble finish, cord option, overall height and canopy for each and every client. When you open the box, you know you'll be getting something one-of-a-kind that's perfectly tailored to you.
One thing that makes The Light Factory special is that we are an entirely female owned and operated company. We're proud of that fact, and thankful for our team of talented, amazing women.
We're also proud of our company mission to give back. The Light Factory donates 10% of all our profits to charities, supporting a variety of organizations both locally and nationally. Our customers have blessed us with growth and support, and we like to pass on the generosity, and to make a difference in any way that we can.
