About L’Essentials

L'Essentials blossomed from a love for nature and creativity. Inspired by a field of lavender, I turned my artistic hobby into a business. My handmade products, including coffee scrub and bath salts, gained popularity online in 2020. I continued to push my boundaries. With my customers' trust, I preserved wedding bouquets and showcased my work at events. Creating earrings for your soul has been a vital part of my life. As a child, I had a strong dislike for jewelry, but my mother encouraged me to wear earrings in both ears, with double piercings. My perspective changed during college, and I now have a deep love for accessorizing and spreading joy through my creations. Now, I successfully balance my full-time job and artistic pursuits, perpetuating a sense of optimism and growth!

From a young age, I've always been passionate about art. I took IB arts, IB Photography, Fine arts! I have experienced with several different mediums. Starting something special from the ground up has been so humbling. I remember my first market set up **starts to cry. My self-taught journey started when I had a little more free time during Covid. My passion for creating handmade art has grown immensely. I love the process. Learning different techniques and designing is what I love the most! We can walk through my journey together and create something beautiful.
