ELLE MADE

These are the things I do and keep me busy when I'm not being a mermaid.

For the love of cooking and crafting, I will be sharing and posting my personal craft work and recipes here.

Calloused fingers and tired shoulders but always so worth it when it’s done! Another variation of my second favorite to make, angel wings!

These chunky knit blankets are just so comfy! They’re fluffy and just perfect to snuggle with!

Just holler if you want one made or if you’re interested in doing a class! We’ll make it happen! ❤️

Trying to do different variations and designs for my signature dreamcatcher wall pieces! What do y’all think about this one?

It’s been a while and I forgot how much effort and time I put into hand dyeing haha! But, love the color combo! Blues, greens and grey!!!

24/01/2023

I’ve been MIA. I got caught up with work, family visiting and other holidays shenanigans. But I’m here for you! If you want something made or if you’re interested in doing a class… Just holler!

What do you see in this piece??

I’m back! After months of moving, traveling and settling in to a new home…

It only took exactly 4 months for the commercial activity paperwork to be approved 😅 but yes! It’s finally approved and I’m back to being creative and ready to make custom pieces for y’all!

I’m so excited and just in time for the holidays season!

Finally got a chance to post again! I’ve been busy doing adult stuff for our move. 😓

But anyway! I’m obsessed with these little hearts! They’re super cute! And I’m still hung up on holiday colors! 😬

Again, thank you so much for all your support! I appreciate all of you and most especially to those that asked me to make commissioned pieces in support for my fundraising for my doggos! Love you guys! 💕

Angel wings… time consuming but always so worth it!

I’m forever grateful for all your support! 2021 was tough but I got through it! Dealt with loss, failure and everyday life stresses; but also met wonderful beautiful people and achieved great successes and personal growth.

Happy New Year’s Eve!

Wishing everyone an awesome and prosperous 2022!

Hi everyone! December has been super busy both creatively and dealing with PCS stuff. Thank you so much for supporting my fundraising for my baby pups 🐕 🐶 I really appreciate you guys! I just got done with all my custom orders! This is one of them and I call it Rainbow Dreams! 🌈

If you’re interested in my pieces, just reach out and I’d be happy to brainstorm with you and make you a custom piece that you’ll love! And of course, this would greatly help with fees to get my baby pups off island! Thank you so much again and I look forward to hearing from y’all! 💕

Most of you know how difficult and expensive it is to take your furry babies with you when you transfer especially being in Guam. The expenses and the paperwork are even more expensive and stressful.

So now, I’m officially fundraising for my girls’ PCS. All the proceeds from any commissioned pieces you lovely people ask me to do and make will go to Reese’s and Hershey’s PCS fund! They are part of our family and leaving them behind is not an option!

I specialize in fibre big decor pieces but I can also make chunky knit blankets, pet beds, baby beds and other smaller fibre items that are great for stocking stuffers!

We’d love your support and can’t wait to chat with y’all! 💕

A little late again, but better late than never! Happy thanksgiving you guys!

Here are my holiday bazaar leftovers and recent pieces. They are on sale right now! Grab yours now!

Also, my Facebook account is currently restricted for reasons unknown. 🤷🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️ So I can’t post or comment anything on Facebook. 🙄

If you need custom pieces or have any questions, you can still reach me on messenger or here on my Instagram!

Hope y’all had a great thanksgiving dinner! 💕

Photos from ELLE MADE's post 22/11/2021

I have a few leftovers of everything. I guess I made too many… haha! These are great stocking stuffers or just even for yourself!

I have these cinnamon and gnome Christmas Ornaments. I have regular (circle, triangle, etc.) and special (rainbow, clouds, etc.) shaped earrings. I also have keychains with gemstones and keychains with hand sanitizer bottles!

The moons are a stand-alone dreamcatcher or I can make them into an actual wall decor too if you’d like!

I also still have some of my wreaths and my knitted chunky blankets. (Not pictured, I still haven’t unpacked haha 😂) but if you are interested, just send me a message. I’ll probably share and post these on marketplace as well! Thanks again everyone! 💕

22/11/2021

Congratulations! 🎉🎊

I will be contacting all 3 of you and we’ll arrange for pickup!

Thank you so much again to everyone who took the time to check out my booth and sign up for this raffle!

A little late, but… Thank you so much to everyone that came out and supported local artists at yesterday’s craft show!

A huge thank you to people that stopped by my booth, checked out my stuff and appreciate the artistry and time that I put into my pieces! Thank you so much!
It was my very first event and I would say it was a great success! I had so much fun and I learned so many things from this. Also grateful for the crafters’ community we have and to to some that turned friends! Thank you! Definitely looking forward to my next one! 💕

A big shoutout to my forever partner! Thank you for being my cheerleader (literally saying go while talking to people, haha) and moral support as always!

And as promised, I will be posting the 3 lucky winners of my raffle in a little bit here.

I also have some leftovers that I will post here on my page and will probably share on marketplace as well! So, watch out for more posts to come! And as always, if you need some custom pieces for your home, just reach out and we’ll brainstorm together!!

‘Tis the season to be jolly! Feeling festive and excited! These minimalist wreaths will be available on Saturday at the holiday craft bazaar I’m part of. They are made of 100% merino wool and chunky chenille yarns. They both feel and look luxurious!

Come by and support your local artisans at Sunrise Conference Center at Andersen Air Force Base! We’re excited to see you all there!

Excited and nervous 😬 come by and support your local artisans! Also note, I will be accepting NavyFed transfer, PayPal and Cash!

13/11/2021

I’ve been super busy these past few weeks 😓 but here’s a great way to display your photos! This wall decor is so versatile; you can even use it as your hair accessories holder or jewelry or whatever you can clip and hang on it! 💕but I think pictures are the best to clip on it!

I’d also like everyone to know that I will be participating in a local craft fair next Saturday! I’m super excited and nervous about it! Haha 😂 I’ll post more info about it in the next few days, so, watch out! Come support local artisans!

I’m obsessed with this! It was just an idea and I didn’t think I would love it but I do!!! Who doesn’t like baskets and flowers?!!

It’s also crazy how it looks different with different lighting! It gives off a different vibe!

Now, off to making more! 💕

Light up your bedroom with this boho night lamp! It’s perfect for your night stand and it will just always remind you of the ocean!

I love how this turned out! I painted the anchor teal to have a beach-y vibe and installed a warm light on it.

More of my dreamcatchers! What do y’all think?

08/10/2021

Ocean & fish lover + family = Fish Family Tree

01/10/2021

I think it’s safe to say that dreamcatcher wall décor is my signature piece haha!

Love these colors! It gives you a sense of peace and calm when you look at it; just like the ocean…

24/09/2021

Tried my hands at weaving… it took so many hours and a lot of frustrations along the way… I even hated it and thought it’s such a waste of time about halfway through but I ain’t a quitter so I had to finish it! 😅 and I must say, I quite like how abstract this tapestry came out to be… I love the different textures and colors. It just gave it so much character!

Photos from ELLE MADE's post 17/09/2021

Took a break from wall décor and went back to my chunky knits! Ah how I missed it! They’re sooo fluffy! They feel sooo good!

10/09/2021

I love making commissioned pieces! I love the brainstorming of ideas and designs, deciding on colors and dimensions, starting on which driftwood to use, dyeing my cords, sending updates to clients and lastly, my favorite part of them all is delivery! 💕

03/09/2021

Feathers/leaves are tedious to make but always so pretty when done and put together as one!

It’s been a while…

Life happened and was busy with other things. But I’m slowly coming back to it and here’s my comeback piece.

The recent passing of my Grandma shut down my creativity and I wasn’t motivated to do anything. She is my inspiration for this piece. She was my light and my second mom. These angel wings represent her spirit and eternal life.

This is made up of treated driftwood, natural cotton cords and led lights.

05/03/2021

Simplicity at its best... Love how this driftwood art turned out and how the cords compliment it.

The color of the cords were actually done by accident. It didn’t dye the whole lot which I didn’t realize not until I unwinded them. I didn’t wanna waste it so I came up with this instead.

Protect your tabletops with these darling coasters! Perfect for personal use or for gifting too, especially Valentine’s Day is coming up soon! 💕

*Mug not included. 😊

To all my ocean lovers! Mermaids and mermen, anglers and divers, this design is for you! 💕

This was actually a mistake but a beautiful mistake. I was trying to work on making a yellow fin to immortalize a catch we caught but I cut the cords too short so I ended up just doing the tail. 😂 My angler friends think it looks like a yellow fin tail but diver friends think it looks like either a mermaid’s tail or a whale’s or just some random fish’s. So I guess it works! 😂

Colors and measurements are customizable, so, what are you waiting for? Get yours now or gift it to the ocean lover of your life! 💕

Elle Made

Hello! I’m Marielle.

This is what keeps me busy when I’m not in the water.

Let me explain that; I have a scuba diving and boat charters business. I’m always either on the boat or underwater. So, basically, I’m a mermaid. As you can see, I even fall asleep underwater. Just kidding!

I wanted a clever and witty name that’s easy to remember but still personal. I was playing around with words in my head then it hit me; the last syllable in my name is pronounced as “elle” which sounds like well and I added made since everything here is handmade by me. Elle Made came about and I definitely think it sounds like “well made”. I was ecstatic and excited to have thought of a name that represents both me personally and all my projects’ quality. Yes, they are hobbies but I definitely put my heart and soul in everything I do.
