Aubrey has worked for our family for many years. Every item is handcrafted in her art & design studio in Kaimuki. She will have art prints, cards, wood puzzles, home goods, bags, pet bandanas, and awesome stocking stuffers.

QUELLZ CREATIONS
Raquel is a good friend of our daughter Sophia. Her island-inspired jewelry is crafted with 14k gold fill metals, ideal for those embracing beach and active lifestyles. Every girl needs a bangle ;)

BY SAKARA
Sakara (that's me), will be sampling her new all-natural, vegan bodycare line, which includes body wash, shampoo, conditioner, lotion, hand wash and handpoured candles. The scents are amazing! She will also have various handcrafted pieces from Bali such as visors, shell decor, wood plates and more.
