Requirements were read, papers were filed & waiting ensued. I was convinced for weeks that I had filled out every form incorrectly & there was no way that I would be approved. But sure enough a few weeks later I got word while on vacation with my husband that PS was official & so started this crazy wonderful ride.<br />
<br />
At the time PS formed I was a Corporate Accountant in need of a creative outlet. I didn't know that two years later I would quit my full time job for Painted by the Shore, & that two years after that we would be launching our second collection- a line of brightly colored tropical inspired totes perfect for summer. A line I'm officially obsessed with & can't wait to use everyday.<br />

Releasing The Moana Collection today was definitely one of my proudest moments ever with Painted by the Shore. I put my heart into our new tropical designs, along with my favorite colors- pink & green! </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
You know by now that we at PS are HUGE coastal lovers, & shifting that inspiration from our beaches in New England to the warmer south & west shores of the U.S. took research. I learned more about different types of sea grass, coral, palm trees & tropical blooms than I ever dreamed; something that left me grateful that designing this collection led to the opportunity to educate myself.</div>
<br>
Moana means ocean in Hawaii, & I stumbled upon the word while searching for synonyms for "sea". The second I saw "Moana" pop up I knew it was the noun I'd been searching for. And thus The Moana Collection, our first launch of 2017, was born.<br>
<br>
Even through we just officially shared the Spring collection this afternoon I'm already brainstorming for 3 other releases in 2017. The creative juices just won't stop flowing & I'm not one to slow that down! Get ready for an a-ma-zing year. I personally can't wait.<br>
<br>
Pop over to our shop <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/PaintedbytheShore?section_id=21111705" target="_blank">HERE</a>, check out the collection & comment below to let us know what you think! <br>

One of my favorite things about <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/PaintedbytheShore" target="_blank">Painted by the Shore</a> is seeing photos of our pieces after they leave the studio. When they reach their destination with our customers & are put to use- glasses filled with wine in front of the fireplace, salt & pepper shakers on the table, totes at the farmer's market & (in this case) <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/PaintedbytheShore?ref=hdr_shop_menu&section_id=18756025" target="_blank">sand keepsake bottles</a> on the beach.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Our <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/PaintedbytheShore?ref=hdr_shop_menu&section_id=18756025" target="_blank">sand keepsake bottles</a> started as a request from a retailer in Cape Cod (one of our favorite vacation spots!). Their shop was looking for a souvenir that their customer could use to take a bit of the beach home with them. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
That first order inspired a half dozen nautical designs. Which in turn led me to start making bottles for events in our own lives- a place to store the sand I'd been saving from our wedding day & honeymoon (coincidentally in Cape Cod, are you noticing a trend?) & now one for our baby's first vacation coming up this summer.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Filling our own bottles was so much fun, & having them on display at home brings back sweet memories every time I walk by that bookshelf. I can't wait to fill Cooper's on his first trip once the weather warms up!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Thanks for stopping by & I'd love to hear your go to vacation spot with baby (bonus points if it's on the East Coast near us!).</div>

If you know me, you know I love art. It's one of my biggest passions, along with writing, & has been for my whole life. Some of my fondest memories of childhood include crafting with my mother & using my imagination to create things & play games with my Grandfather. </div>

Drawing inspiration from everyday life & living on the Connecticut shoreline I founded Painted by the Shore (PS) in April of 2013 (nearly 4 years ago, I can hardly believe it!). At the time I was a 40 hour a week Corporate Accountant in need of a creative outlet.</div>

Since then PS has grown into more than I could have imagined that spring. Leading me to leave the corporate world for my home studio.</div>

I am constantly amazed when customers share stories of how our pieces brought joy to them or to their friends & family as gifts. It warms my heart beyond words.</div>

All of our painting is still done locally in my hometown of Branford CT & we source as many supplies as possible from other small businesses around the United States.</div>
