At Mainely Tidal, every piece begins with a love for the coast, beachcombing, and creating meaningful keepsakes from nature. Long before Mainely Tidal became known for personalized oyster shell ornaments, sea glass art, sympathy gifts, wedding keepsakes, and luxury coastal details, it all started with collecting treasures along the shoreline.
We are honored to have been featured in the The Portland Press Herald in their article, “Homegrown: Lifelong beachcomber turns her hobby into art.”
The feature highlighted how Mainely Tidal founder Melanie Enman transformed a lifelong love of collecting sea glass, shells, driftwood, pebbles, and other natural coastal finds into a thriving business built around handcrafted keepsakes and meaningful gifts. The article shared the story behind the business, the inspiration drawn from Maine beaches, and the passion for creating one-of-a-kind pieces that help customers celebrate life’s most meaningful moments.
From personalized sea glass art and memorial gifts to coastal wedding decor and oyster shell ornaments, Mainely Tidal has continued to grow while staying rooted in the same creative passion that inspired the business from the beginning. Today, Mainely Tidal proudly creates handcrafted coastal keepsakes from South Carolina while still honoring its Maine roots.
Being recognized by the The Portland Press Herald was an exciting milestone and remains an important part of the Mainely Tidal story. We are incredibly grateful to every customer who has supported our small business over the years.
