Salty Girl and the Long Dog is a Maine based online shop comprised of a small group of beach-lovin' gals who choose to make a living doing what they love! Salty Girl creates Maine-made driftwood items that are crafted with care and tons of love.   

Growing up in York, Maine, folklore has it Cherie is part mermaid. With her graphic design education, a coastal wild spirit and her passion for the sun, sand and sea, Cherie and her assistant mermaids have created a successful online Etsy Shop that has generated nearly 8,000 sales. Using local natural resources, Salty Girl has become known for their stunning, one-of-a-kind driftwood and sea glass wreaths, driftwood handrails, driftwood signs, and beautiful driftwood wedding arches.

I'm an 8th generation native of York, Maine and DNA has confirmed that I AM definitely part mermaid!  After five years of having my Salty Girl shop, I have been able to live and work a salty lifestyle full time! I've gone from sitting at a computer all day, to going to a private cove or sandy beach every day.  I feel very fortunate to have an occupation that allows me to paddle-board to work! 

Stay salty,
Cherie | a/k/a Salty Girl
