I am a strong believer in starting where you are and using what you have, wherever and whatever that may be.
Everyone should get to experience the joy of connecting to others through learning, experimenting, and creating.
Creativity doesn’t have to be expensive or wasteful. Whether we’re using natural materials, reusing materials, or shopping our own stashes first, creating mindfully goes beyond being present in the moment - it extends to being mindful of our environment and the other communities around us, too.
That’s why I donate a portion of our profits to support causes centered around human and animal welfare.
