Christa Nilles is self-taught, and she founded Reminded Designs in 2011. She makes most of the pieces in her home studio in Squamish. Sterling silver and gold-filled metal meet gemstones and freshwater pearls, along with the odd material she picks up on her travels.
The name comes from the idea of a token of remembrance, a piece that reminds the wearer of a special person or moment. She sources materials as locally and ethically as she can. Got Craft lists Reminded Designs for the first weekend of its 2026 Holiday Market.
Worth knowing
- Ask about a piece to mark your Sea to Sky trip, since remembrance is the whole idea behind the brand.
