Hello, welcome to my online store where you can find lots of Coastal inspired goodies for you and your home. All of my work is uniquely handmade using high quality epoxy resin, coloured pigments, inks and dreamy beaches.
Here, you can find some lovely gift ideas for that ocean lover creating a special little piece of the ocean to escape to.
MADE TO ORDER - These coasters are now sold but I can create something similar for you.
They're created onto real natural wooden tree slices. They come as a set of 4 and with a holder.
High quality epoxy resin is used with coloured pigments and mica powders giving you the feeling of the sea within your home. Perfect as an eye catching focal point on your table.
Each coaster has been sealed with wood oil protecting their finish and bringing out those stunning markings of the wood.
Coaster Size : Please note that due to these being real natural wooden tree slices, each coaster will vary in size within the set of 4 so some maybe a little larger than others but are more than adequate for holding your drinks on.
Each coaster can withstand high temperatures of upto 90 degree celsius but please still be careful.
* Please bare in mind that when I'm creating each piece, is that once the resin has cured there maybe slight imperfections on the surface. This is absolutely normal and is because resin has self levelling properties once going through the curing process.
Care Information :
* Wash and polish with a clean soft cloth.
* Clean gently and do not submerge in water
* Hand wash only. Do not place into a dishwasher.
* Keep out of direct sunlight to protect your piece

Having been creative all of my life and my love for sketching at a very early age, I would sit and draw as much as I could at any given opportunity after my day in school. I loved painting in watercolours, acrylics and oil paints. Salvidor Dali was my all time inspiration, where I'd sit and copy and study his work in great depth.
I would sit and make all kinds of things, as long as it consisted of texture, colours and patterns. My mum taught me how to use her sewing machine. I used to watch her make all kinds of beautiful things. My mum was definitely my inspiration when I was growing up and to see how creative I could be and to be just like her.
I went on to art college where I specialised in Textile Design and gained upto HND level. I then anded a job as the head artist for a silk screen printing company but it just wasn't for me.
My little girl, Ava, was born. During my maternity leave I decided to then leap into the Floristry world where I became a fully qualified florist. I studied at the Horticultural college in Wales. I always had a love for flowers and I still do 🌸
After working in a couple of florists I went onto having my second little girl, Esmée, so to fill in some of my time whilst on maternity leave, I tried my hand in metal stamping, creating pebble pictures and wanted to try working with resin, to which I now specialise in producing resin Coastal Art and have an absolute love for. Not long after Es turned 1, I sadly lost my beautiful mum to Lung Cancer. I felt my world had just fallen apart. Me and my mum were so close. I trained her up as a Display Merchandiser, where we worked together for 8 beautiful years.
I submerge myself into my Costal Art which I found to be my place to switch off, be happy and to learn what I truly believe to be my magical sanctuary.
I was sadly diagnosed with an Acoustic Neuroma, which is a brain tumour that was found by sheer accident, on my left side in 2021.This has turned our lives upside-down. I suffer with slight hearing loss, tinnitus and not to forget to mention my balance and dizziness. I'm currently under Watch & Wait with Aintree hospital in Liverpool where I go for my regular MRI scans, hearing tests and also I go regularly to see my Neurophsychologist too. She's like my brain tumour councillor and such a big part of my wellbeing.
My resin art has helped me so much in many different ways. I'm absolutely blessed to have got to this point in my life which has been a huge turning point for me and I've grown in confidence, especially in getting those waves just right, I'm still learning each day to perfect them!
Throughout this short space, I've been commissioned to produce different size canvases for my lovely clients. From small pieces as gifts for weddings, to tryptic pieces for large areas and for Holistic therapists to give their patients a place to relax & unwind whilst looking into my tranquil coastal pieces.
I'm so very proud of where I am now and I cannot wait for my future ahead of what I love so much - my Resin Coastal Art which helps to heal me every day.
Thanks so much for reading about me & hope you enjoy looking around my shop?
