Hello, little spirits! ✨
First of all, I hope you’ve all had a wonderful time—whether you love spending the holidays surrounded by family and friends, or prefer savoring the quiet peace of your own company.
Over these past days, I’ve been deeply disconnected from social media for the first time since starting this little project, and honestly, both my body and mind feel so grateful for it. I really needed a break from the digital world, especially during this time of year, which is often a bit challenging for me. Now let’s cross our fingers for the famous algorithm when I return to my usual activity—haha!
A week has passed, and I’m slowly starting to feel like myself again. For now, I’m still spending some quiet days in my hometown. These days have been filled with sketching new designs, experimenting with gemstone combinations, and writing down the stories each piece whispers to me—the little tales they sing.
I love imagining a story behind every one of my creations. Who would wear them in a magical world? A dryad, a green witch, a graceful elf? And why? What meaning would this piece hold for them? I’m not sure why I do this, but it’s something I’ve done for as long as I can remember, even before I started making silver jewelry. It keeps my imagination and creativity alive and thriving.
Looking back at my two latest autumn collections, I can see a style emerging, a cohesion in my work. I’m so proud of those collections! And knowing how much you loved them fills my heart even more. Only two pieces remain unclaimed, and some were sold on the very day they were released—a HUGE milestone for me. I cried out of joy that day (no joke, trust me—I cried).
2024 has been a complicated year. Even more so than the year before, when I started my current “day job.” The days kept getting busier, and my time at the workbench grew scarcer. My collection releases became a little erratic, and some months I only managed to share individual pieces without much context. Still, each piece carried so much love because every single creation I make encapsulates those precious moments I get to spend crafting in silver—a craft I discovered in 2022, and one I’ve fallen so deeply in love with.
Beyond the stress of my day job, I also had to shut down my shop for almost three months while traveling to Italy for my research duties. That was such a challenging time, and when I returned, I realized the break had taken a toll on my inspiration and confidence. Soon after, my partner and I had to move to a new flat, and the stress of that transition made getting back on track feel almost impossible.
But today, I want to stand proud of the work I’ve done and express my deepest gratitude to you—every single one of you walking this path with me. Thank you for your kind words, which, little by little, helped me find joy again in creating and sharing my work. Thank you for your support on Instagram, for your purchases, which allow me to reinvest in this dream, and for the happiness you bring into my life. I truly hope that when you wear one of my pieces, you can feel the effort, emotion, and intention woven into every detail.
I wish you all a Happy New Year! May 2025 bring you joy, comfort, and endless little moments of magic.
Cheers to you! 🥂
With love, Eva
