Annie Cochran
Jewelry & Pottery Handcrafted by the Sea
My name is Annie Cochran, and I'm the artisan, owner, designer and creator of C-Breeze Treasures. Since I was a little girl, I've always loved creating and crafting. I remember spending hours, by myself or with close family members, coloring and drawing! Crayons and coloring books were my most favorite asked for gifts!
As I grew older, the creativity became stronger and continued to grow. From handmade Christmas cards and ornaments to knitting scarves, I did it all. Now, my passion is handcrafted jewelry. I believe my creative gene was passed onto me by my Mom. Growing up, I remember her doing ceramics and crafting of all sorts for gift giving and selling. She passed away when I was 12, but my Mom is still my inspiration to this day.
Being surrounded by the beautiful ocean and the many gorgeous beaches is where my creations are inspired. These "treasures" are authentic, fresh, and are mostly one-of-a-kind. Most important, they are all handmade by me! When crafting, I take pride in each treasure as if creating it for myself. The joy of seeing the finished piece is then passed on to you as the "new owner!"

Jaida Narkon
New England Based Artwork and Home Decor
Raised on Cape Cod, I currently reside in the beautiful seaside town of Harwich, Massachusetts. After acquiring an undergraduate degree in Fashion Merchandising and a Master’s degree in Media and Innovation, I returned home in 2018 and have been using the skills gained in school to create a brand that is uniquely me and inspired by my time on the Cape.
My aim was to create something that encompassed my love for fashion, colors and design. I started with drawing on paper, then moving to drawing on an iPad Pro, to finally creating digital designs. From there, J.ALEXIS DESIGNS was formed. Combining design, decor and art, I’ve printed these digital illustrations on everything from pouches and wallets, to wall banners and stickers.
Thank you in advance for your support, and I appreciate your effort to #SHOPLOCAL

In the early days of her career, she owned Sugarbush Photo offering ski photography and transitioned to wedding and family beach portrait photography on the Cape. As digital photography replaced film, she focused on fine art and aerial photography.
Marcia has earned the prestigious Master of Photography Degree and Photographic Craftsman through Professional Photographers of America (PPA) and is also a Master Photographer of Massachusetts.
She lives on the Cape and travels to Vail, CO and Punta de Mita, Mexico in the cooler months for a variety of photo opportunities. Marcia is the host of the popular Cape Cod Photo A Day (FB) where the mantra is, ‘Making the World a Kinder Place Starting with a Photo A Day!’

Maggie Covell/Blue Chick Jewelry
Handcrafted Jewelry
I love stones and always have. Growing up, I collected all sorts – smooth, tumbled stones from the local Five & Dime, black and white beach rocks that wash up on Nauset Beach, river stones, silver flaky mica found in the hills of Maine... I'm inspired by different shapes, shades, textures, and facets. My designs are inspired by the simplest things – what I call the “minutiae of everyday life” – the changing light on the marsh throughout the day and into the evening, the ever-shifting colors of the ocean, the spring-to-fall garden blooms. Sometimes, it’s merely a feeling that sparks a design concept. Each piece is one-of-a-kind, and hand made. The materials are top quality and include precious and semi-precious gemstones, pearls, shell, wood, leather and suede, silk cord, sterling and Thai Hill Tribes silver, gold, and 14kt gold fill. I seek out stones that are unique in shape or cut and especially enjoy using uncommon or rare stones including Tanzanite, a violet blue stone found only in Tanzania, Africa, blue and white Larimar (the Caribbean Stone) found only in the Dominican Republic, Imperial teal kyanite, rich purple and black Russian Charoite, and vivid green Chrome Diopside. It is truly a joy for me to create pieces I can imagine someone wearing for a special event, giving to a loved one, or just enjoying it as that piece that “goes perfect with jeans.”
