About Us

Every Maine Salty Girl piece is thoughtfully handcrafted in coastal Maine using authentic driftwood and materials shaped by the sea.

How Maine Salty Girl Began...

Hi there — I’m Cherie, founder of Maine Salty Girl.

Born and raised on the southern Maine coast, the ocean has always been my reset button — a place to breathe, wander, and feel grounded. After years of working as a graphic and web designer, life took an unexpected turn when I was diagnosed with Lyme disease. My body slowed down, my mind felt foggy, and I needed something to bring me back to myself.

That’s when I found my way back to the beach.

What started as quiet walks along the shoreline turned into something more — collecting driftwood, sea glass, and pieces shaped by the Atlantic. The ocean became my healing place… and Maine Salty Girl was born.

Today, we’re proud to be a leader in handcrafted coastal driftwood decor — creating everything from statement wedding arbors and handrails to one-of-a-kind home accents and DIY kits. Every piece is thoughtfully designed and built using authentic Maine driftwood, hand-selected for its natural beauty and character.

We’re a small, passionate team of beach-loving creatives who believe your space should feel like a breath of salty air — calm, effortless, and meaningful.

✨ No two pieces are ever the same

✨ Sustainably gathered from Maine’s rugged coastline

✨ Crafted with intention, built to last

If you don’t see exactly what you’re dreaming of, reach out — custom pieces are one of our favorite things to create.

We know shopping online can feel uncertain, but we’ve built this brand on trust, quality, and connection. When you bring a Salty Girl piece into your home, you’re bringing in a little piece of the ocean — and a story shaped by it.

Life is better at the beach. Always.

Cherie (a.k.a. Salty Girl)
