Alyanna’s Nook is a little corner for creativity, collecting, and discovering things you’ll love.
Since 2016, we’ve brought together DIY crafts, creative tools, collectibles, toys, character favorites, and special finds for makers, collectors, families, and fans of all ages.
WHERE IT ALL BEGAN
Alyanna’s Nook was founded by husband-and-wife team Alvin and Lani Dela Cruz and named after their daughter, Alyanna.
The idea began with something simple: finding a way to build a business while still being present for family.
With a background in Computer Engineering and a growing interest in online selling, Lani began researching products, brands, characters, and creative finds that were difficult to find locally. What started as an idea at home became Alyanna’s Nook in November 2016.
FROM DIY TO DISCOVERY
Some of our earliest products were DIY frames and miniature kits, which became longtime customer favorites and helped shape what Alyanna’s Nook would become.
Over the years, our Nook grew.
We expanded into creative supplies, toys, collectibles, character merchandise, dolls, figures, hobby items, and products from international brands—serving customers not only in Metro Manila but throughout the Philippines.
But even as the selection grew, the idea behind Alyanna’s Nook stayed the same:
There should always be something delightful to discover.
MADE FOR DIFFERENT KINDS OF JOY
Some people come to Alyanna’s Nook because they love making things.
Some are searching for the next piece in their collection.
Some are looking for a favorite character, a thoughtful gift, something for their children—or simply something that makes them smile.
That’s why today you’ll find a little bit of everything in our Nook: creative tools and DIY projects, collectibles and figures, toys and learning finds, character favorites, home and gifting pieces, and plenty of unexpected discoveries in between.
STILL OUR NOOK
Alyanna’s Nook has changed a lot since 2016, just as our family and our customers have grown.
What began as a small online business has become a place shaped by years of discovering products, learning what our customers love, and carefully choosing what deserves a place in the Nook.
And we’re still discovering.
