5 out of 5 starsHad this hoop made for our wedding. It’s going to go on our dessert table where our pie will be made with fruit from our hometowns! Super happy with the result. Shipped very quickly and was wrapped adorably. Would buy from again!

The Navigator's Tale:
The Navigator Handmade is a St. Pete, FL based craft business founded by Melanie Kielich. Melanie is an avid thrifter with an artistic eye and a creative streak; she loves to re-purpose found and vintage materials and give them new life.
After graduating with a BA in Art from New College of Florida, Melanie searched for a way to bring her love of found and vintage objects into a useful medium. The Navigator Handmade is the culmination of that endeavor, fusing these materials with imagination, nostalgia, and a sense of adventure.
The Navigator Handmade is an eclectic collection of jewelry, trinkets, and home decor created from vintage maps - featuring ready-made or custom-made objects for anyone who values a sense of place // home // travel //adventure.
Melanie loves to travel and find new places, people, landscapes, colors, words, and life. An eye for the vintage aesthetic and a strong sense of adventure keep her moving and making new beautiful accessories for The Navigator Handmade.
Our products are all one-of-a-kind treasures created with vintage and recycled materials, and a lot of love, while we navigate our way through this life//world//endless adventure.
