Our Story
From the founder
Hi there! I'm Brooke Gabrielian, founder of Falling for Dainty. I started FFD in 2018 as a creative outlet during college. I have always loved DIY'S, scrapbooking, and creating art. Making jewelry was so fun for me because I could incorporate what I made with my favorite stones and then wear it after. After months of mastering my skills, I started to sell the jewelry I made. This quickly turned into a passion of making high quality, affordable jewelry that made women feel beautiful and confident. The best part of it all, is the connections my work has allowed me to make and all the amazing people that I have met along the way.
Since then, falling for dainty has grown in ways I never could have anticipated. From opening our first storefront, to collaborating with some of Sonoma County's finest brands and resorts, to having women wear our jewelry on their wedding day; I attribute our success to our amazing customers and our hard working team. So, thank you for being here and supporting my small business!
xoxo, Brooke

It takes a village
When they say it takes a village, it truly does! From starting out in 2018 with long days and nights doing markets every weekend, to November 2022 when I decided to open a storefront in my hometown of Healdsburg, Cameron was there with me along the entire way. So, this is a thank you, to my amazing husband Cameron, I could not have done it without you.
He brought my designs and vision to life and built me the storefront of my dreams. If you haven't been to the shop yet, come say hi and check it out. Right when you step in, you feel like you're in a fairytale. It truly is quite dreamy and makes for the perfect stop on your Healdsburg getaway weekend trip.
