Now that I am feeling a little more myself, I will be, for the time being (and maybe only occasionally) bringing back some favorites, such as the Tuesday Tutorial Treasure Hunt, video tutorials, and the "Finish It!" contest. Unfortunately, there no longer seems to be the interest required to continue the Tutorial Membership Discount Program. But hey.... take what we can WHEN we can, right? I'm very happy to finally, after all this time, have the energy to offer a free lesson here and there, and host a contest here and there and maybe throw in a video tutorial ... you got it... here and there. I can't go promising this will be a regular occurrence but it's for now, and that's got to count for something, eh?
My spiritual practice has recently allowed me to express myself creatively, with new crafts that have even inspired my jewelry making. So far this year, I've made rawhide rattles, wands, spirit dolls and poppets, headdresses, amulets and talismans, because when I have the energy, I like to share it with others, lift others up when they are low or sad, because I understand what it feels like to feel alone. It's a wonderful thing to make something, pour my energy and intention into it, and to know others are using it, enhancing their own spiritual practice. What a beautiful thing to be and feel so.... included.
and I feel I should credit all of you, who have rallied behind me, despite the emotional mess of my life these last three years (perhaps in spite of it). It is because of you that I now have it in me to give back to others which is, I feel, how it should always be, this cyclical movement of sharing.
When I was at my lowest, so many gave to me in so many ways, and I'm forever grateful. For today, I'm able to indulge my creativity AND my spirituality, with both Nicole Hanna Jewelry and The Witch's Rattle, and I couldn't feel more blessed. I'm excited for what's still to come. Thank you. Nicole
