An Inclusive Shop that Gives Back
Donation protected
Hello World!
My name is Adrina and I am the face behind the emerging brand self-entitled, Adrina Dietra. I am a single mommy of two amazing and rambunctious toddlers, working full time with individuals with disabilities.
I am passionate about helping others because I have, personally, fallen into many of the categories of persons in need of assistance. I would love to show, no matter what, if you have the drive, and if needed, the assistance, you can climb out of any dark corner life has placed you in. I have been the victim of mental, physical, sexual, and verbal abuse, suffer from anxiety, severe depression, ADHD, and OCD. After moving to Binghamton 2 years ago and starting life over, nearly from scratch, I decided to re-pursue my life-long dream of turning my hobby into an actual company that strives to give back to those in dire need!
Within this brand I create natural apothecary goods such as lotions, soaps, bath soak/bombs, candles, etc as well as intimate apparel garments from the most basic every-day wearable to high end extravagant for editorial shoots and ladies that like to add a cheeky pop to their wardrobe. I also create lingerie inspired garments like the wedding gown seen in the fund photo!
Currently, my products are found online and in Tesorina Boutique in downtown Binghamton, NY, but with your help, I would love to finally open my own brick and mortar storefront. Within this store, I would not only like to sell my basic apothecary and intimate/intimate inspired apparel, but I would like to make the process of customization more accessible.
I will convert regular bras to mastectomy bras. Just because life happened, does not mean one should have to give up their favorite bras! I will create garments for ladies on both ends of the size spectrum when/if their size is not available--everyone deserves to look and feel great! I will provide alterations to intimates and delicate clothes. I will provide custom scented apothecary goods to define a scent that is you!

With all of this, I plan to continue to give back to the community by:
1. Giving a portion of all proceeds accumulated by the shop, to a charity that will be selected {community input accepted} each month. These will range from locations both near and far as my products have been purchased and enjoyed by clients around the world.
2. Continuing to have shows and different events/small forums to raise awareness/funds for different ailments/illnesses/people in need/charities/Organizations. So far, money has been raised for/items donated to, Avenue D.I.Y., The Bundy Museum of History & Art, Binghamton's Femme Fest 2017, Abel's Birthday Bash, CERF+, & Victims of the Hurricane that devastated Texas/Louisiana. There are already several more, including collaborations, in the works!

Approximately $2000 will be allotted for notions, supplies, and raw goods/oils, etc. to create all of the stock for the store.
$1000 will be allotted for furniture, shelving, paints, and other cosmetic needs.
$1000 will go towards a security system and other electronic or security needs such as a lockable cash drawer and monitors/pads & stands for a point of sales system.
If total funds are raised and all needs met, any overage will spill into assistance with 1st year rent/utilities as this is one of the most difficult things to keep up with as an emerging storefront attempting to gain its base clientele. Currently, I plan to pay between 1/2-1 year of the lease in advance {depending upon which of the, 5 so far, scouted fronts are chosen}.
View a few inspiring items below to get a feel of the antique setting I would love to bring to you!
Wall Paper/paint/color inspo for non-brick exposed walls
Baskets for walls for things such as bath teas, bath bombs etc
Shelves for things that have no problem standing!
My hopeful deadline is Mid March - Early April as I would love to open the doors this coming spring! This way, I can utilize the wonderful weather to attract clients that are both local and just visiting.
Unfortunately, taking the leap to be a brick and mortar is much more costly than I would be able to afford in the next few years, but, with assistance, I am ready to take on the challenge of maintaining it!
I would like to thank everyone that contributes to this, in advance. I am beyond appreciative and humbled by those that genuinely share the spirit and want to help others. By assisting in this campaign, you are not only helping a small business owner achieve a life-long dream, you are also assisting those that will benefit from future donations!
Many thanks, and I hope to see you in thE.Shop ^_^
