About Us

HI, I'M NATALIA

I am the owner of Island Beads Collective, but I am also a new mom to the cutest little boy, (Daxon), a dog mom to Charlie and Ford, a Fiance, and a Pharmacist. I started Island Beads Collective because I could never find the cute, dainty jewelry I was looking for—so I decided to create my own.
Island Beads was born while I was living on Vancouver Island, inspired by the effortless beauty of the coast while still holding on to my prairie roots. I’ve always loved the “coastal cowgirl” vibe—a blend of soft, minimal pieces with a little western soul.
As a busy pharmacist, I needed a creative outlet to unwind. What began as a way to de-stress quickly became something much more meaningful.
Now, Island Beads allows me to do what I love—create beautiful, personal pieces, attend events, and connect with the most incredible people. Every bracelet, necklace, and charm tells a story, and I’m so grateful to be a small part of yours.
