on earth

as it is in heaven

Et in Terra

Et in Terra Collections was born from a response to continue; continue to follow an ache of stewardship and intentionality.

Angela, the artist behind Et in Terra, started her rosary making journey at the age of 10 and continues to critique and refine the crafting of her rosaries that more perfectly reflect her heart for design and eye for simple elegance. Taking different methods and resources she’s researched and practiced through the years and making use of natural and ethically sourced materials, Et in Terra rosaries are truly one of a kind.

collections

In addition to rosaries, Et in Terra Collections will hold a place for apparel and home goods inspired by God’s creation and theological truths that remind its customers of who they are and help point them to where they belong.

Angela started Et in Terra Collections in a response, but also in a hope to access The Divine here on earth by making these physical, domestic reminders and sharing them thoughtfully with others.

We are happy you are here and are excited to serve and create beautiful pieces for you and your friends!

PATER NOSTER, qui es in caelis, sanctificetur nomen tuum. Adveniat regnum tuum. Fiat voluntas tua, sicut in caelo et in terra. Panem nostrum quotidianum da nobis hodie, et dimitte nobis debita nostra sicut et nos dimittimus debitoribus nostris. Et ne nos inducas in tentationem, sed libera nos a malo.

Amen.

beauty through intentionality

I.

Background

theologian

collector

photographer

Angela grew up a collector. She saved everything she found beautiful and spent hours sorting through rocks, drawing, and playing mom. Later, she found a passion in thinking in the clouds and found her place studying theology amid an architecture major crisis.

A part of her still holds on to what first drew her to study architecture through her continued pursuit of design and precision. After discovering her appreciation for moral theology, particularly in marriage and family life, she started a photography business with the goal of providing Catholic couples moment-in-time, storytelling photos that celebrated the beauty and wonder of Catholic marriage.

Vocation

wife

mother

Married and a mother to two earth-side, Angela now spends her time decluttering and drawing “fish” (aka dolphins) per her two year old’s requests.

Between naps, snacks, and potty breaks she’s learning how to find her place back in her younger self’s creativity and dreams.

Dreams

a genuine gift

Et in Terra Collections came to be from an ache to fill a creative void in a foreign space.

Deciding to place her photography business to the side and surrendering her life to motherhood, Angela felt a pull to put all the pieces together. Where desires and challenges meet, here Angela has a place to create while contemplate, to balance living in the in-betweens, and to discover the mysteriously beautiful Catholic call of self-knowledge and surrender.
