Why We Create

How Mermaid Finds Came to Life with Love, Faith, and Ocean Dreams

Mae and Fay’s Mermaid Finds began the way the best things do — with friendship, faith, and a shared love for the ocean.
We’re Katie & Caterina, two moms and best friends who first bonded at work, then grew even closer when our daughters became inseparable.

Inspired by motherhood, beach days, and our passion for creating meaningful things by hand, we started making ocean-inspired jewelry and keepsakes that reflect our values: love, faith, and joy. What started as a creative escape quickly blossomed into a small business fueled by purpose and heart.

Everything in our shop is:
- Handmade with love by us in St. Petersburg, FL
- Crafted from beach-inspired materials and meaningful designs
- Infused with faith and positivity, often inspired by scripture
Thoughtfully packaged and shipped with care from our home studio

We’re always working on new ideas and seasonal treasures, be sure to follow us to see what’s new. And if you ever want something custom, we’re just a message away!

To Reflect God’s Beauty

Every shell we use is a reminder of God's creativity and the beauty He placed in the smallest things.

To Spread Love Through Handmade Treasures

Each piece is made with care and intention, designed to bring joy and connection to those who wear it.

To Build a Legacy of Faith & Creativity

As a mother-daughter duo, we’re creating more than jewelry—we’re building memories and a legacy of love, purpose, and self-expression.
