Inspiring Conversations with Trae’C Dumas of Christine’s Creations

Today we’d like to introduce you to Trae’C Dumas.

Hi Trae’C, so excited to have you with us today. What can you tell us about your story?
I started Christine’s Creations in July of 2019 as a college students at Bethune Cookman University In DAYTONA BEACH, FL. During my senior year, I wanted to focus more on enjoying college my last semester vs. working my call center job, so one day I when into to work and I quit! A week later, I was looking on Amazon for some items to make my own bracelets not knowing that this would be the birth of Christine’s Creations. With me also being a Plus Size women I knew the struggle of trying to find pretty and trendy jewelry that would fix, so I thought to myself why change up the jewelry game. Now three years later, I have made an avenue for Plus Size women to have custom affordable jewelry!

Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
My road have been smooth for the most part. With starting my business a few months before the pandemic business was booming and thriving. During the pandemic, that’s when my business flourished the most honestly. That was my first 6 figure year, I started teaching classes and offering starter kits to customers who wanted to start their own business. Once 2021 hit, my business kinda slowed down because the jewelry business became very saturated and I lost my joy for my business because I started to wholesale charms to other business owners. 2021 was an eye-opener for me. It honestly was my worst year in business if you ask me, but I sat down at the end of 2021 and decided to go back to my passion for making custom pieces for women. Now in 2022, I am happy with my decision, I have my passion for my business and Christine’s Creations is back thriving!
