Rose Schlagel

Designer and Maker

Hi, I’m Rose — the hands, heart, and creative mind behind this small business. My journey began in 2017, when I set out to create handmade pieces for my own wedding. I was determined to bring my dream day to life while staying on budget, so I rolled up my sleeves and started crafting everything I could by hand. What began as a simple way to personalize my own celebration quickly grew into something much more meaningful.

By 2019, I had transitioned from purely hand-crafted items to using craft cutters, design software, and specialized equipment. With every new tool I learned, my creativity expanded — and so did my passion for sharing it with others. What started as a DIY wedding project transformed into a genuine love for creating beautiful, personalized pieces for anyone who appreciates the art of handmade work.

Today, I’m grateful to craft items that hold personal meaning for my customers. There’s something special about knowing my touch becomes part of someone’s milestone, memory, or business dream. I especially love being able to support other small businesses by offering both budget-friendly options and professional customization services. With so many ways to personalize — from sublimation and vinyl to laser engraving and more — the possibilities truly feel endless.

Every order, every idea, and every wish inspires me to keep creating.
Thank you for being part of this journey and for allowing me to bring your vision to life.

3D Artist, creator and designer

Ever since I first sat around a table with friends, rolling dice and trading sheep, board games have sparked something special in me. Games like Catan, Horrified, Gloom, and Dungeons & Dragons weren’t just a pastime — they were a way to connect, imagine, and create stories together. Over time, that love for gaming blended with another passion of mine: crafting.

I discovered 3D printing as a way to bring the worlds I loved to life. What started as simple curiosity quickly grew into something deeper. Watching a miniature slowly emerge — layer by layer, as the resin printer dips and rises with steady patience — felt like watching imagination become reality. Each print was a small piece of a bigger story, and I couldn’t get enough.

Of course, the journey wasn’t without its challenges. Achieving the level of detail and quality I wanted meant countless hours of fine-tuning, troubleshooting, experimenting, and learning the quirks of every machine. But every misprint, every clogged nozzle, and every late-night adjustment made the successes even more rewarding.

Those experiences led me to create Contagious Inspirations — a place where creativity spreads, stories grow, and tabletop adventures gain depth and character. My goal is simple: to help bring the joy of board games to everyone, whether they’re seasoned adventurers or brand-new explorers.

Thank you for being part of this journey. I can’t wait to help bring your worlds to life, one miniature at a time.
