Cool, calm and uncollected

i'm just a girl who loves to make journals and started an entire diy trend on social media over a year ago. what started as a stubborn and determined craft for myself, quickly turned into gifts for my besties and then an entire business to share my creations with the world! from alaska to tokyo, my journals span the globe and it is such a surreal thing to ponder on. i'm forever grateful for my community on social media and the ability to follow my passions (outside of my corporate 9-5 lol) 🙃. 


i continue to receive notifications of people tagging me in their own diy videos, showing off their new journal companion. everytime i get to see these my heart weeps! i've even inspired many other crafty girls to open up their own small business selling handmade journals as well! i would one day love to follow this passion in its' entirety but for now i split my time between this and the day job. it limits my ability to really widen my creative portfolio so progress can be very slow at times. nevertheless, i wouldn't trade it for the world. 

  some recent works i just shipped out last week:
my "studio" right now is basically a guest bedroom/office space in my house that has been thrown into the chaos of a warehouse to store pounds upon pounds of leather, tools, charms, etc and is also used for my many other side crafts and projects.

 
 my third passion project is social media. i've started creating youtube videos may   back in highschool during the tube's prime, although it was for my dozen   followers (i still loved every minute). i last branched out to tiktok back in 2019   although for many years just posted silly little videos and on no matter of   consistency. over the last 18 months i've really crafted my voice on tiktok and try   to inspire others to lean into their childlike wonder by pausing to notice their life   as it goes by. whether through dedicated rituals (rituals for sensitive souls) or   practicing the art of noticing and getting out into nature as much as humanly   possible (on a perfectly splendid __ day). 

 

at the end of the day...i just love getting   to be creative in any way possible and hope to inspire others to do the same <3

   All my love,
