Hello welcome to Acorn & Amber
Acorn & Amber is a curated assortment of wellbeing events, services, and products that draw inspiration from the beauty of nature, earth wisdom and herbal remedies.
Acorn and Amber are two elements of nature that evoke a sense of autumnal beauty and warmth. The acorn, a small, nut-like seed from the oak tree, symbolizes growth and potential. It whispers to us "from small beginnings come great things".
Amber, on the other hand, is fossilized tree resin that has been appreciated for its colour and natural beauty for centuries. Often found in golden hues, amber captures the essence of time and the stories of ancient forests. Together, Acorn and Amber create a picturesque scene of Autumn, where the potential of new life meets the timeless beauty of nature's history and stories.
Acorn & Amber is a website committed to delivering seasonally inspired curated content, products, events, and services that resonate with the natural world.
Inspired by nature, folklore and stories. Art work inspired by cosy illustrations and aesthetics such as cottage core and academia.
About Marisela
I have a back ground in Visual Merchandising, Buying and Retail Management, I love curating products, and believe good design effects everything. Over recent years I have been teaching Yoga, which has opened many doors in other holistic and divination practises such as Tarot Reading and Plant Medicine healing.
I've always felt a natural connection to plants and flowers; at 14, I purchased my first essential oil – Lavender. I was captivated by its delightful fragrance and intrigued by its healing properties. Later, at 25, I considered enrolling in an Aromatherapy course, but life had other plans. Later on I left corporate retail to work for a fab business called Rhubarb & Roses where I spent almost 5 years buying, styling, managing and helping to design and arrange some beautiful floral arrangements. I loved working with the plants and how each season brought about a new theme and look. It was wonderful to curate the shop and floral arrangements and found styling the flowers came quite easy and natural to me. Now, at 41, I am thrilled once again to be working with plants and their medicinal properties and sharing them with others.
I enjoy creating homemade remedies, oils, and teas with plants as the foundation. There’s something truly fulfilling about using produce that you've nurtured from seed and crafting products from nature's gifts. I cherish the journey of making, curating, and creating.
