-What makes your shop unique? What is your specialty?-

-What is the story behind your business name?-
“I started by making earrings for my own, closest family and friends and just as a fun me time. I have a toddler so you know, having a relaxing me time is necessary to survive 😅 So, one day watched a video how to make clay earrings and decided why not start my own little business! I graduated with Fashion and always wanted to open something of my own and I am loving it! Each piece I make has a lot of thinking, love and care behind it! My brand name and products are inspired after Brazil, the tropical country I am proudly from! I want to bring fun colors, shapes, textures and comfortable earrings for my customers. I will always be looking to give them all my best.”
