In 2006, Sarina, a then single mom of one began making handcrafted jewelry as a hobby. The hobby became an obsession and the obsession became a small home based business. Sarina worked full time as an Accountant to support her son, Aden and crafted jewelry by night. Her designs were displayed and sold at street fairs, craft fairs, online and at privately held jewelry house parties hosted by friends and coworkers.
In 2007, Sarina met Neal. She taught him to bead and wire wrap and he happily supported her with her various events and joined her in her travels to Spain and Mexico to promote her designs. In 2009, they got married and the family grew! Today, Aden is now an adult and helping with the business, their daughter, Serafina (10) is following in mom's footsteps and designing her own line of whimsical handcrafted pieces (see the new SERAFINA collection), and Chance, the littlest (7) is planning to be a ninja.
Neal has been supporting SARINAstore since 2007 and also goes by "Sarina's Man". He has worn multiple hats for the business, including but not limited to Sales Rep, Flyer Distributor, Business Card Designer, Jewelry Maker, Booth Builder and Head of Travel and Promotions.

Brenda Swann, California
“Sarina is a dear friend, and I have learned on more than one occasion that you never mix business with friendship, especially when it comes to wedding stuff. BUT, Sarina didn’t let me down. The jewelry exceeded my expectations, we spent a while talking design, colors, look, feel, etc. She hit it on the nose with what she came up with for my girls, dogs and myself (not to mention she gave all kinds of options and mocked-up designs on the spot!). Best of all, they are custom pieces and were priced very well. It was hard to get a pic of the collars...but oh well...”
Lisamarie Holte, Maryland
“Sarina!!! Thank you so much for the opportunity to be one of your lucky buyers in PV! I love the waistlette and it's not going to be my last either! Now I'm looking forward to my new breast cancer anklette that I can wear so proudly as a survivor and much more. I already have a few favorites picked out and if I had all the money, I would buy your entire collection! ha ha ha.. Who knows maybe I will! Muuuwahhh! Xoxox”
