Charlotte Handmade is a unique jewellery store crafting handmade pieces with love and precision.
At Charlotte Handmade, Charlotte began her venture at the age of 15, fueled by the desire to replace a lost gold ring with something sentimental. Starting with $2 craft wire, she honed her skills through YouTube tutorials, gradually transitioning from copper to gold and silver.
Original designs gained popularity on Facebook and Instagram, prompting her to take custom orders with genuine gemstones. Facing early exposure challenges, Charlotte turned to Facebook marketplace and local markets for support.
The pandemic provided her with more time for creativity, leading to new designs. Looking ahead to 2024, Charlotte aims increase her sales through her website by fostering connections at markets and vendor sites.
Charlotte's business thrives on creating quality, customisable jewellery with genuine gemstones, each piece crafted directly for the customer.
Charlotte's advice to aspiring entrepreneurs: "Do it! Don't be scared to post, go to markets, and start. It's a rewarding experience to see your work grow."
