Vanina was born and raised in Argentina, and she now lives happily in SF with her husband Michael, her dog Juancho and Bob the Super Cat. She is a graphic artist / crafter / independent designer who likes to use her two hands to create things that make people happy. She also likes to wear what she believes and do good for the world.
After years of creating for friends and family, she decided it was time to take the next step and created 12 mood studio, where she now sells her creations to the public.
Inspired by our daily life in San Francisco, here at 12 mood studio we like to use our hands to make stuff that make us and other people happy.
All of our goods are crafted with love, dedication and care.
We offer hand screen printed tees and hoodies that will make you smile when you wear them.
Our silk scarves are one of a kind, individually hand painted, and the perfect accessory to brighten any outfit. We created the Arbol canvas shopping bag because we believe in no more plastic bags. And of course, we recycle - take a look at our T-Skirts. We also like to collaborate with other talents, and created our Bambi Sling Bag with Nappa Studio.
We began designing our “Wear what you believe” line. Please check out our new designs and help us make a difference while you shop.

Michael has lived in California long enough to feel like a native, though he is originally from Texas. He loves the fresh air, but still complains about the fog.
Michael likes to play the guitar, go on walks with the dog, read a book with the cat in
his lap, and try new things.
He has been designing things since he was a kid and has been getting paid for it for the last ten years.
