Here are some words from Coraline:
-What made you want to start creating?-
“I wanted fun Christmas earrings. But silver and gold was too heavy for my love. So I went on Etsy And when I looked it up I thought I would just make them myself (even though I ended up purchasing a nice pair for Christmas from another maker).”
–Would you like to share any family info? Pets?-
“I have two cats, Wini and Luna. Luna always assists me in the making while Wini sleeps on my photo backgrounds. I also have three adult ducks and just got two ducklings. They are basically water outside cats!”
-What is your MOST FAVORITE item you have created?-
“All of my earrings. I don’t stick to one style of earrings. I love creating different styles that will match different women/people. So I’m proud of all of my designs. But the Sienna earrings are my favorite. I have them in a lot of colors. Because they can be worn for an everyday style or a dressed up outfit.”
-What makes your shop unique? What is your specialty?-
“Maybe the fact that I don’t stick to one style.”
-What is the story behind your business name?-
“I am French. I have only been in the US for 4 years after meeting the love of my life. I started reselling silver/gold jewelry but didn’t like it because something was missing in this business. So I started making my clay jewelry around Thanksgiving 2020 and had so much fun! It erases all my anxiety and stress and allows me to show my creativity!”
