✨ MEET THE OWNERS | KARA + MIKE ✨
Hi! We’re Kara and Mike, the husband-and-wife team behind Designs by KaraMarie. If you’ve shopped with us at a market, stopped by our booth, or followed along online, there’s a good chance you’ve met one—or both—of us!
Designs by KaraMarie began in 2014 with a love for creating meaningful, personalized jewelry. What started with hand-stamped pieces has grown over the years into so much more—birthstone jewelry, everyday pieces, earrings, our build-your-own Charm Bar, and an ever-changing collection of pieces we genuinely love.
While Kara is the creative force behind the jewelry, product design, displays, and all of the little details you see throughout the brand, Mike is very much a part of what makes it all happen. He’s our builder, problem solver, booth-setup expert, behind-the-scenes muscle, and the person helping turn Kara’s latest “I have an idea…” into reality. 😄
Together, we’ve spent years traveling to markets and events, meeting thousands of customers and building Designs by KaraMarie into a brand that is about more than simply selling jewelry.
Our favorite part is helping you create pieces that feel like you—whether that’s a necklace stamped with the names of the people you love, birthstones representing your family, charms that tell your story, or simply a beautiful everyday piece that makes you feel good when you put it on.
We believe jewelry should be fun, meaningful, wearable, and made to become part of your story.
And even after all these years, one of the best parts of this business is still getting to meet the people who wear what we create.
Thank you for shopping small, stopping by our booth, telling your friends about us, following our travels, and allowing our little business to be part of your special moments.
We’re so glad you’re here. 🤍
— Kara + Mike
