The Tall Order Story

Hello! My name is Charlotte Wayner. I started my hand crafted barware business, Tall Order Studio, in 2023 out of my (formerly jewelry) studio in Tacoma, WA. 

I have a decade-long background in fine jewelry design and production, and before that I spent many years working as a bartender. 

As a lover of cocktails and bar culture, I was so excited to set up my own home bar. I found beautiful vintage cocktail glasses, a nice Boston shaker, and a bar cabinet to put it all in, but when it came to bar tools, I couldn’t find anything other than the generic stainless steel or bamboo skewers that I’m sure you’ve seen in every bar. I wanted something more unique to compliment my curated bar set up.

Suddenly I decided that I should just make my own bar spoon and cocktail picks! I had all the tools and materials at my fingertips in my jewelry studio after all. 

I decided to start Tall Order Studio because if I couldn’t find barware that I liked, maybe other home bartenders felt the same way. 

I hope my barware will help elevate your cocktail experience and add a beautiful and unique touch to your bar cart.       

Cheers! - Charlotte Wayner, Owner/Designer/Maker
