Dear Harriet is an homage to my grandmother. It is handmade jewelry made from seashells that I have handpicked from around Florida beaches. Beach-combing started as a form of therapy but quickly turned into a full-blown passion. Every single seashell has been found by me. They are dainty, elegant truly one-of-a-kind pieces that can be worn with anything.
Love, Sydney
Frequently asked questions from the Dear Harriet community
Where can I check out Dear Harriet jewelry in person?
You can find me at markets around South Florida, including Tiki Market on Riveria Beach most Sundays. Follow @dearharriet_ on Instagram Stories to see where Dear Harriet will pop up next!
Do you find all the seashells yourself?
Yes! I go to the beach at least 2-3 times a week and collect my shells. I spend hours digging through the sand to find unique colors and shapes. It’s truly my therapy!
Is everything handmade?
Yes again! I took a chance on myself and chose to pursue Dear Harriet full time. Between the beach trips to Michaels to creating hundreds of different pieces, everything is made by me. I put so much love and energy into each piece to ensure the highest quality.
Can I wear seashells 24/7?
I do! Everything at Dear Harriet is made out of real seashells, which are fragile and strong at the same time just like mother earth! If there are any issues, I am more than happy to communicate and figure out a solution.
