Hi, I'm Valerie

I am the kind of person who expresses love through gifting. I love the thought, the tiny details, and the quiet joy of making something with my own hands just to make someone else smile. I started this because I believe we all deserve a simple break from the daily go-go-go rush. I wanted to create a tactile monthly ritual for you. It is something that arrives in your mailbox and feels exactly like getting a thoughtful letter from a friend.

The seed for this journey was planted back in 2025. A dear friend of mine was diagnosed with cancer while living in another state. A text message just didn't feel like enough, so I started mailing her letters. I drew on the envelopes, tucked in little paper surprises, and poured my energy into sending her small, real moments of comfort. She saved every single one.

A year later, I unexpectedly lost my job. I had spent the last decade in corporate learning and development, where my whole career was focused on intentionally designing experiences for people. Suddenly I was home with my two young daughters. While I was incredibly grateful for that time, I deeply needed a creative, tactile outlet for myself to help me navigate a really heavy season.

I realized I could use my professional background to design something truly meaningful. Not a corporate guide or a classroom lesson, but a gentle, screen-free experience for anyone else who needs a moment to catch their breath.

Every month, I hand-create these packages. It’s a creative blend of a heart-to-heart letter, interesting things I find, and a 14-page pocket zine designed to give you a space to step away from the noise and just relax for a few minutes.

My sunshine is in creating these small, handmade whispers of comfort. I hope yours is in opening them.
