From a young age, my world outside of school revolved around, books, swing sets, science kits, magic, mischief, mud pies, and the great outdoors. I was inquisitive and stubborn. A sensitive, curious spirit. A combination of sweet and sass with a limitless imagination.
Growing up a latchkey kid, we had to find ways to entertain ourselves for hours on end. An abundance of boredom and free time sparked a lifelong passion for collecting and creating things. I made the best mud pies and herbal teas for me and the Fae folk. I built tree forts, raided the neighbors berry bushes every summer, rode my bike and skateboard as if I was invisible. If it was shiny or I could catch it, it was "my treasure"—though the latter didn't always end well for me. 🤣 Those were some of the best and worst years of my life, so the nostalgia runs deep, but so do the lifelong scars of carrying it all.
This has evolved into a love for collecting books, art prints, handmade dolls, crystals and other fun quirky finds. My favorite finds are always from small businesses and artists who craft one-of-a-kind treasures.
I adore being surrounded by magical creations made with heart and soul. My collection isn't just about acquiring objects; it's about soaking up the creative energy and passion behind each piece. Every item I choose resonates with me, whether it's because it tickles a childish fancy, its unique, charming, quirky, or simply because I admire the amount of time, effort and skill put into its creation. Sometimes there is a story or adventure behind it.
This is going to be a peek into the things I love and what inspires me. The things that get me through the tougher days. I hope you discover something that speaks to your own childish heart or fearless soul.
Welcome to my inner world were creativity, and inspiration reign supreme!
