2025, what a year.
A year filled with gratitude, love and some of the biggest losses in my life. I've met some of the best people and did some of the most fun collabs while having our shop.
The decision to close our store front was tough but also the best and biggest decision I've ever made.
Honestly, I feel lighter. Less burnt out. Something I used to do out of pure joy ended up becoming a chore. Forcing myself to continuously come up with new things even though no-one asked for it. Closing our storefront allowed me to have more time with family and create lasting memories with them. It allowed me to appreciate things in life. It gave me time to grieve even though I'm still going through it.
Over the past 6 months, I've felt like I could breathe again. Create things for fun without the pressure I would put on myself for not wanting to disappoint others. Continuing to overcome imposter syndrome.
If I'm being honest, I still don't know what 2026 holds for me and where I look to take all this. But, thank you for continuously supporting my journey and showing up for our mini pre-orders that I've been doing. Special mention to .nz for hosting us both times we did it. Thank you to you all for following and for this platform to showcase what I love and grew up with.
Love,
Wendy 💚
