AkinaMakes

Creating has always been a medicine for me — whether it's using words to craft a story, combining fresh ingredients to whip up homemade salad dressing, blending scents and waxes to make candles, or turning beads into beautiful, fun accessories. The latter is especially meditative and uplifting for me. Every Tuesday, no matter what else I have on my plate, I carve out time to just make whatever Spirit moves me to create that day. Here, I share the pieces born of that energy.

What I've internally dubbed "On Tuesdays, We Make" began in 2018, when I would just make bracelets, earrings, necklaces, etc. for myself, family and friends, and in September 2019, I decided to open this shop to share my handmade creations with others who love all things handmade.
