Intro:
Starting an Etsy shop wasn’t part of some grand master plan. It began with a spark—a feeling that maybe, just maybe, the things I create could make someone smile, feel seen, or connect on a deeper level. I wanted to share why I believe stories like mine—and yours—matter more than ever.
Connection Over Perfection
If I’ve learned anything, it’s that people don’t connect with perfection. They connect with authenticity. When someone clicks on your shop or visits your website, they’re not just looking for a product—they’re searching for a feeling.
For me, this journey started as a way to express myself. I’m not the loudest person in the room, and talking about my feelings isn’t easy. But creating? Ideas in my head kept coming. I was excited and I wanted to share these creations with others. I realized I wasn’t alone in wanting to connect with other people in a way that feels safe and meaningful – to bond. So, every design I make is a reflection of that—sometimes funny, sometimes sarcastic, sometimes contemplative, most times heartfelt, and always real.
Why Sharing Matters
We’re all navigating our own ups and downs, and it’s easy to feel invisible in a noisy world. That’s why sharing your story—no matter how imperfect—can have a ripple effect. When someone reads about your journey, sees your heart exposed and vulnerable (that takes a lot), or feels understood by something you’ve created, it’s like a little bridge of connection. And those bridges? They’re powerful.
