Introduction	Belle Adore, established in 2005 by Christine Klein, was a business endeavor by a mom who wanted to provide imagination inspiring items for children to play with. The shop was created as a means to share fun and interesting products with people who value hand-made items. About 10 years later, the boutique developed into a wife & husband team and was renamed Belle & Beau. Christine is the primary designer and developer while her husband takes charge on anything related to the wood shop. The team strives to blend American made materials with natural elements, to offer products that not only function well but are beautiful too. Christine took advantage of every art class made available to her in school. The skills she learned were later put to work in her shop and she's been sharing her items locally on a small scale for years. Christine learned the in's and out's of artist sales by participating in handmade events as an artist. Eventually, this path led her to co-owning and producing a successful, large-scale, handmade event in South Florida for five years, called the Odd Duck Bazaar.
