Find me here tomorrow with thoughtful and high quality Mother's day gifts!

Made one of these as a request and since ceramics are so unpredictable of course i had to make two just in case... I absolutely love how they came out! These sold immediately. So I have more in process now. Life has been a slow since having a stroke. It's been challenging to keep having to ask for help, as I am not supposed to lift more than 5 pounds. It's been humbling. But I've decided to take all of this as an opportunity to practice asking for help... since it's quite unfamiliar and uncomfortable territory. How do you feel about asking for and receiving help?

Ferns have survived every mass extinction this planet has ever seen. No flowers, no seeds... they reproduce through spores even though they're a plant not a mushroom. This is an ancient intelligence entirely their own. And that uniqueness is what has carried them through.
There is something in that for all of us.
This piece is for anyone who has ever felt like they move through the world differently. Your gifts may not look like everyone else's. But they are yours, they are needed, and you belong here.
Let this necklace be a small reminder of that.
