You Creative Beach, San Diego

What services does your business offer and what makes your business stand out from the competition? All of our products are made in Ocean Beach, California. All merchandise is made available to purchase online, or in a workshop for the Ocean Beach community to learn how to make themselves. There are classes for kids, adults, and seniors with Alzheimer's disease.

Of the products you sell, which are your favorites? Handmade body lotion with just four ingredients; photo transferring onto shirts and tank tops using something other than iron-on transfer paper to make it last longer; and the Rustic Illuminated Divider is gorgeous!

What was the inspiration to start or run this business? A passion for art and drive to make products I see in stores better, because they are cheaply done. I know I can add style and creativity to something.

What do you love most about your job? All of it! But especially the workshops. I love showing others they are capable of doing what Pier One does but better, without having to spend a fortune!
