MEET THE MAKER

 Welcome! My name is Catherine, I'm owner and designer of Bijoux. Bijoux is a brand that promotes self love and confidence in women. We hope to spread joy through accessories. 

Ask anyone who knows me - I've wanted to run my own business for as long as I remember. I was given a rock tumbler for Christmas one year and I guess you could say the rest is history. 

I began making jewelry in 2015 as a way to help pay for a college course abroad. I loved having an outlet to pour my creative energy into. Hanging out with friends turned into us sitting on my dorm room floor, designing jewelry, as the hours passed by. All of the sudden, Bijoux was born. 

What does Bijoux mean, anyway? When I began making jewelry, I had the daunting task of naming my business. With help and inspiration from my Grandfather, Chuck (who used to live near the French Quarter in New Orleans), we decided on using the name "Bijoux", which roughly translates from French to "jewels". 

Thank you so much for supporting a local business and family! I am so thankful for YOU!

XO, Catherine
