Meet Mylah, one of our young budding artists at Living Lands! She has been working hard on her earrings this summer, so we wanted to show her off and ask you all to send her a little love and support ✨ You can find her earrings and crystal necklaces in our budding artist section at Living Lands Collective 💜 her creativity and focus inspires us all daily!

"Hello, my name is Mylah I am a jeweler but I wasn't always one. It all started not so long ago at Christmas with my mom's side of the family, they saved a special present after all the other presents were opened and my papa had me come over to his chair and he said I have something to give you. It was a box full of jewelry making stuff! I was so excited I got to work right away on my first pair of earrings! They were very pretty. My first customer ever was my grandma. She bought five pairs so that was $50 because each of my earrings cost $10. So after that I became a jewelry maker and since then I've been making plenty of jewelry. We made a special display and my mom made me a stamp. It has my logo on it . My business is called Mylah Wilder creations. I am very proud of my business! That is how I got started!"

Artist Highlight time!

Singing Dove produces these fantastic, pure beeswax candles. We are always amazed at the new shapes Melinda creates! And, yes, she also makes lovely traditional tapers and colonial candles.

These make great gifts and decor! Stop by Living Lands Collective gallery and see all of Singing Dove's wonderful work!

We are proud to announce that we were nominated for Ozarks Alive 's Rock Picking Award for the Community Minded Group of the Year! We just love the idea behind this program and can't wait to hear all about each of the nominees and what they are doing for our community ✨✨✨ Thank you Kaitlyn for all you do!

Just me and an old rock cornerpost to give an update on Ozarks Alive’s Rock Picking Awards: 55 people and organizations submitted applications (across eight categories) for this year’s awards!

Those applications are now with the judges, and honorees will be announced by mid-September. I am thrilled with how many people took time to apply and share about the important work they’re doing across the Ozarks.

Thanks go to our sponsors for helping make this awards program possible: Century Bank of the Ozarks, the Community Foundation of the Ozarks, The Shepherd of the Hills and The Story House Bookstore. Stay tuned for more soon!
