About me

Oddly enough I was not a crafty person while growing up.
It was not until I got married and moved to another country to support my husband's career that I found this passion in my life.

I started doing cards and gifts to people and they really appreciated it. It was gratifying seeing people's smiles when getting something handmade specially for them.

The pandemic was a hard period for me. It took a toll on my mental health and me and my family went through some personal tragedy. I don't know how I would be able to go on without the wonderful people in my life that showered me with love and support! 

Once I got back on my feet, I wanted to bring people a little joy in their life through my work and show them some love and support just like others have done it for me when I most needed it. I think the world could use more of it now.

This is how I started this journey, to spread happiness, support, and love. To help people be grateful and celebrate the good moments and their achievements. Join me in this mission!

Want to be more organized? For me what works best is to have a place for everything, dedicate a container, drawer, or shelve and label that place. It makes it easier to not need to think where things need to go and where things are! My first project

It makes it easier to not need to think where things need to go and where things are! My first project after alI learn the very basics of calligraphy was making labels. These were from the peak of pandemic, when I was sewing my own masks. I’d say my calligraphy improved a lot since then! Would you like to have some beautiful labels for your house? Let me know in the comments and I can make it for you!

I love doing place cards! Unfortunately I am not the kind of person who normally throws a party that would have assigned seats. If you do or know someone who does, please let me know and I would love to do them for your event!
On the old days (like over a decade ago) I used to like cutting designs with a craft knife. Now with all the cutting machines I don’t think it’s worth it all the work anymore. But they sure were pretty!

Who doesn’t feel overwhelmed and discouraged by life’s challenges sometimes? In moments of uncertainty and fear, this verse reminds us that we are never alone. God’s presence is a constant source of strength and support. #calligraph

I like doing pottery, but a big problem is what to do with all the little pots I make. So I decide to do a ‘tea corner’ with them. #pottery

Sometimes it’s easy to get overwhelmed by anxiety. When that happens I try to focus on the fact that God is in control of everything and remember of all He has done and provided for me and my family. Then I pray and trust that He will do it aga

I made those for a friend's daughter 10th birthday last year. It was supposed to be on black cat theme, and those were the party favor boxes. The party never actually happened, but I thought the boxes turned out pretty cute!
