5 out of 5 starsI love the ornaments! I had one that I needed made to my specifications and the rest I left up to Gina's creativity. I was thrilled with the results!! Even though I ordered several of one style, they were all unique. I can't wait to give these as gifts; I am sure everyone will love them too. I will definitely be ordering again. Thanks to Gina for all her hard work!

5 out of 5 starsI have ordered twice now, and will keep ordering. These pieces are made very well and to your specifications. I love my sun and moon, and again the seller/creator is great to work with.

4 out of 5 starsIt was so easy to work with Gina and so quick. The preview of the finished piece was exactly what I received - and very quickly. The only issue I had was that two of the pieces had come loose - perhaps during shipping. Overall, I am very happy about the finished product.

The story of Creations from the Sand
While on a girl’s weekend to Daytona Beach, Gina noticed the resort had a " Island Art” sand box. Gina and each of her companions were intrigued and decided to engaged in the sand box experience. It was so much fun! They each used their own handprint and created a memorable souvenir that they still treasure from their special weekend.
About a year and a half later, Gina was again in Daytona Beach with one of her friends who had shared in the sand box experience. They remembered the fun they had creating their own beach art. Gina jokingly said to her friend, “I think that is what I would like to do someday…Have a sand box kiosk set up on the beach!”
Ironically, Gina and Steve had been doing some soul searching. They had both run successful businesses in the past. The kids were now grown. It was time to have a little fun and make some positive changes in their lives and career goals. The love of the water, the beach and the salt air was a driving force for future change, but what could they do together that would get them closer to the beach?
Gina remembered a business card that had been given to her from the “Island Art” representative and pulled it out. She told Steve, “This is probably a crazy idea, but what do you think about this?” They went to the website and within minutes became very excited about the possibilities. The next day, they met with Ashley Willis and became the proud owners of “Creations from the Sand”.
Steve and Gina are beginning their 8th season of working in their sandbox and still loving every minute of it. It doesn’t feel like a job! Every day they get to meet and work with fun people who enjoy creating their special beach memory.
