Driftwood and Dough

Driftwood & Dough began as more than a small business — it became my creative outlet during one of the most challenging seasons of my life. I’m a wife, mom, registered nurse, and master’s student who splits my time between Florida and California. While navigating a demanding career, school, family life, and unexpected health challenges, creating gave me something positive to pour myself into. What started as a way to find a little peace and purpose grew into Driftwood & Dough. I create coastal-inspired candles, jewelry, home décor, gifts, ornaments, and accessories, many using oyster shells, pearls, sea glass, and other elements inspired by the coast I grew up loving. Each piece is handmade in small batches, and because I work with natural materials, no two are exactly alike. My hope is that when someone takes one of my pieces home, they’re getting more than something pretty — they’re getting something made with intention, creativity, and a whole lot of heart.
