Over 10 years of creating jewelry, I’ve received many kind messages.
They helped me through difficult times and encouraged me to keep creating.
Thank you to everyone who took the time to write them 💜
2016 … The Beginning
When I first started creating jewelry, I often doubted myself. My father once said, “Who’s going to buy this shit?”
Back then, a single encouraging comment could brighten my entire day. It meant so much to me and helped me keep creating.
24 February 2022 … The Day Everything Stopped
When the war began, my Etsy shop and PayPal account were shut down. Overnight, the business I had spent years building was gone.
The kindness of strangers helped me believe that I could start again.
June 2022 … The Road Into the Unknown
Starting over in a new country was both frightening and exhausting. We had no clear idea what the future would look like.
The support I received online helped me feel less alone during that uncertain time.
March 2024 … The Second Chance
In 2024, a blood clot nearly took my life. The doctors warned my husband to prepare for the worst.
The messages I received reminded me that there were still beautiful things worth creating.
2022-2026 … Starting Over, Repeatedly
Over the next four years, I rebuilt my workspace six different times in different countries.Constant relocation meant rebuilding both life and work over and over again.
Knowing that people were waiting to see what I would create next made those fresh starts easier.
2025 … When the Account Disappeared
In 2025, the Instagram account I had spent six years building was permanently removed without explanation.
The people who found me again and continued to support my work helped me keep moving forward.
