Where Precision Meets Imagination.

Hi, I’m Samantha Valentine. Welcome to my studio.

Valentine Innovations is a 3D fabrication shop based right here in Middle Tennessee. I specialize in creating kinetic art, functional home decor, and "clean and cute" designs that bring a touch of modern magic to your daily life.

My Story: From Logistics to Layer Lines

My path to 3D printing might not be traditional, but it makes perfect sense to me. With over 16 years of experience in military logistics and planning, my professional life has been dedicated to precision, strategy, and understanding how complex systems fit together.

I founded Valentine Innovations as a way to merge that disciplined, technical mindset with my love for creative design. I don't just see 3D printing as a hobby; I see it as a way to engineer joy and curiosity into physical objects.

The Lab: Meet "Brutus"

Every item you see in my shop is manufactured personally by me in my Old Hickory studio. I’m a firm believer that the best results come from the best tools. Most of my pieces are brought to life by "Brutus," my high-performance Bambu Lab P1S.

I spend hours testing and selecting the perfect filaments—whether it's an iridescent silk that shifts colors in the light or a matte clay that feels like artisan ceramic. My goal is to move beyond the "plastic" look and create pieces that feel like high-end sculptures. If you hear a satisfying "clack" from one of my kinetic stars or feel the smooth, weighted texture of a peacock bowl, you’re feeling the result of that obsession with quality.

Global Design, Local Fabrication

I love clean, functional aesthetics, which is why I often collaborate with world-class designers from across the globe, including talented creators in Sweden. Their Scandinavian-cool style perfectly matches my vision for the shop.

I am a strong advocate for artist rights, which is why I maintain active commercial licenses for every model I produce. When you buy from me, you are supporting both the original designer and my local workshop.

Proudly Veteran-Owned & Nashville-Made

I am a veteran-owned business and a proud member of the Nashville community. From the moment I start a print to the moment I hand-pack your order for shipping, I am focused on the details. I personally inspect every single piece to ensure it meets my standards for durability and beauty before it ever leaves my door.

Thank you for being part of this journey and for supporting local innovation.
