About
Hi! I'm Rebecca. Thank you for stopping by my shop! Let me share with you the story behind my passion for creating gifts. It all began during my childhood, when I spent countless hours with my grandmother, crafting various items like quilts and ornaments. I fondly recall how she would introduce us to new crafts she had learned during her summers in Florida. Initially, I found joy in these activities, but as a teenager, I yearned for something "cooler" and grew disinterested, much to my grandmother's disappointment.
During my teenage years, I faced the challenges of an autoimmune disease (and continue to), which limits my physical activity. It was during this time that I discovered the world of computer design and began experimenting for my joy in creating. Little did I know then that this newfound interest would eventually intertwine with my love for crafting.
Life carried on, and suddenly, within a short span, I experienced the loss of my grandparents, my little sister, and my husband.
This is where the significance of gifts comes into play. I am a collector of memories, cherishing the gifts given to me by my late husband and the heartfelt cards created by my sister.
I would give anything to be able to exchange gifts with them once more, to express my love through that gesture.
Watching my mother as she ages, I see her wanting to forge connections with her grandchildren, hoping to leave behind a lasting bond with them. She wants to create something tangible for my nieces, a memento that will keep her memory alive for the rest of their lives. After enduring so much loss, I too want to establish that same meaningful connection with my nieces. I understand that they may not fully comprehend it now, but we are creating memories together, little by little.
That is why a necklace, for instance, is more than just an accessory. It symbolizes a warm embrace from your grandmother or a heartfelt hug sent to your granddaughter as she navigates through college or other life events. It encapsulates a profound "I love you" that may be cherished for years to come.
I am so gratitude for your support of my small business. Your support allows me to continue creating meaningful gifts that carry love and memories within them. And I hope it does for you as well!
Sincerely,
Rebecca
