Here I am, almost 62, and gearing up for the next chapters in our story. Do I wish I could retire, you bet. I’m tired from the hard knocks of life, but you know what my life has given me? Incredible joy amid some really tough circumstances. And sharing joy with you is my life’s mission.
My Joy Box is the one project that I wish would just take off and spread like wildfire. Imagine if I had people on a wait list! Imagine is I was able to mail 30 or more boxes a month. Imagine all the joy traveling to your doorstep. That’s the goal.
The joy is for me as well. Though this project has stretched me and made me dig deep, it’s been a highlight for me amid so pretty dark days. One day I hope I can lay down the artistry as a job, but without major miracles it won’t happen anytime soon.
So, I want your support. I’m opening the doors until tomorrow night for the October Joy Box. $58 includes your shipping for a box worth around $150! I make every single item that goes in the box with a few exceptions. Each month I choose a theme, paint the artwork and then create handmade goods and jewelry that supports the theme.
Then I make the box beautiful and ship them to your doorstep. Each month you help support my creativity and each month I deliver the joy.
Comment, “I Need Joy”, and I’ll get you signed up for the October box! 🫶🏻
