Simone Marie Designs

Simone Marie Designs was sparked by stepping foot into a clay makers paradise. A small locally owned business in Carson City, Nevada called Charlie B Gallery. Where a clay maker, Charlie, had created his own oasis of artwork collected from all over the world. He told me "If I die broke at least I am doing what I love." His passion for his work truly made an impact on me. It was the instant heart warming "this man LOVES what he does" feeling. I wanted to feel the same exact way. That is why I went home, bought an assortment of colors in polymer clay, and started playing with new designs in my kitchen. A desert storm was my second collection, first being a nautical theme that didn't turn out as planned. It's all about the trial and errors in everything, right?

​

Simone Marie Designs is a small business located in Alpine Meadows California. Working with clay comes from my passion for handmade, authentic items. Since I was little and attending a Waldorf school,  I have been interested in working with materials of all kinds. Creating with clay is making something out of nothing. You can never duplicate a design. This I find to be extremely intriguing!

One day I hope to open a sip and shop in our small town which will include an espresso bar + consignment store + locally made jewelry.
