For such a time as this.

Téia grew up with parents that taught her to be resilient, reliable, and resourceful. They taught her there is hardship and joy woven together into every person’s tapestry that can be expressed through creativity. Most of all they taught her not to be perfect. They taught her how to ask for forgiveness and how to forgive. There is a strength in the vulnerability it takes to be truly and wholly seen, despite her imperfections.

 

Everyone is creative and created to be so by the Creator himself.

The ability to take something discarded and make it beautiful is a gift.

Failure is a lovely part of the process, embrace it and look for happy accidents.

Like a black skirt or blue jeans, vintage never goes out of style.

Handmade is always better and imperfections make it perfect.

Enjoy Your Journey!

Be Thankful!
