Coastal Art & Custom Memory Keepsakes.

I craft beautifully unique and distinct beach-themed art pieces and jewelry using my original photography and seashells I’ve collected while exploring the stunning shores of Plum Island, MA.

By transferring my photographs onto actual Plum Island Sand Dollars, combined with genuine purple Plum sand from the beaches of Plum Island, I’ve designed these unique, one-of-a-kind coastal-inspired mixed media home decor items to bring a tranquil beach aesthetic to your home or office.

I find great joy in photography and crafting, which has inspired me to blend these two passions into creating unique, custom art pieces and jewelry that add a special touch to any collection. By directly transferring my original photographs onto real sea shells, particularly the sand dollars I collect while visiting the shores of Plum Island, I have crafted one of my most treasured product lines!

"Beach Money" features my photography on actual sand dollars, gracefully merging the beauty of nature with fine art. These pieces are sealed & adorned with beads, charms, genuine sand from Plum Island, a starfish & shell, and designed to be hung anywhere in your home or office. They make a delightful addition to any collection & serve as a one-of-a-kind gift for beach and wildlife lovers!

Coastal Sourced

Heirloom Quality

Classic creation

My photography, artwork, and jewelry are directly inspired by and gathered from the beautiful Massachusetts shorelines, Plum Island in particular. My home away from home.

I handle your sentimental fabrics with absolute reverence, returning a durable companion to sit on your shelf or bed. Perfect snuggle companion when you're missing your special someone!

Having various interests and hobbies opens up numerous avenues for creativity. By blending my personal photography with my seashell discoveries, I craft distinctive decorative art pieces to showcase or present as gifts.

Nature's therapy

Seeking nature whenever I can, I find great joy in seeking wildlife to photograph & observe. I'm always in awe of the things I find & learn when out on an adventure. From woods to ocean to mountains & everything in between. I feel so lucky to live where I do!

Source of Inspiration

After losing my father in 2025 I decided I needed to create teddy bears using his flannel shirts. The joy & comfort these bears provide for myself & my immediate family was immeasurable. I have been able to find great comfort through this unthinkable loss in recreating that for other grieving individuals & families. These bears are made in his name. ♡

FAQ

What are Beach Money?

Beach Money are my little art pieces I create using real, Plum Island Sand Dollars & my own original photography. They are sealed, which strengthens the shell, adorned with real purple Plum sand, beads & charms & placed on string to hang around your home.

What do I do with "Beach Money"?

You can hang your Beach Money on various surfaces in your home. Hang them on your walls arranged with some beachy or wildlife photos or artwork. Hang a piece of drift wood & dangle a few Beach Money pieces from it. Use a small tree, a white birch branch or a display hook to display them on a table top surface.

Display hooks will be available for purchase soon!

Can you safely ship Beach Money?

Sure I can! These creations are precious to me! I seal them to strengthen them & then pack them with bubble wrap and packing popcorn to keep them cushioned & safe in transit.
