Two years ago, I never imagined this would be my story.
After more than 20 years in marketing and the restaurant industry, I found myself unemployed, facing interview after interview and wondering what came next.
Then one day, I bought a small bag of rhinestones and a tumbler.
What I thought was just a creative hobby became something so much bigger.
It became my therapy. It became my peace. And eventually... it became my business.
People always ask me how I have the patience to place every rhinestone by hand.
The truth is... every rhinestone helped put a little piece of me back together.
If you're in a season where life isn't going the way you planned, don't give up. Sometimes your next chapter begins with the smallest step—or in my case, one tiny rhinestone.
Thank you for following my journey. 💎✨
