Oh, it’s just a few weeks away before Christmas! Can you believe it?! I feel like the year has just slipped like a breeze 🍃 But, even though it does feel like it, a lot had happened and some may not be really pleasant. But, I’m much excited that Christmas is just around the corner. It’s my favorite time of the year! 🎄

And with that, I’ve prepared another line for my Heartily Collections! Especially for the Christmas season ❄ May I introduce my next collection, the Glowful Yuletide Collection 🎉✨

Inside Look of the Glowful Yuletide Collection 🎁

In this collection, I did new stuff that I haven’t done before and also embraced old-time crafts since Heartily Handcrafted started, which is something exciting for me too! Let me list what items are in the lineup and a little something about each! 🤩

  • ✨ New hand embroidery pattern: the Glow Seasons Wreath Pattern 💐
    • ◽ I’ve been really thinking of making a pattern that can be appropriate for the Holidays and all year round. I’m glad to be able to stitch one this year finally! 😃
  • ✨ Embroidered hairpins that come in pair 🌺
    • ◽ I actually thought of doing this early this year but wasn’t able to find the style I’d like it to have. Good thing I was able to actually sit down and get stitching and there it is! 🥳
  • ✨ Hand-painted bookmarks that come in pairs too! 🔖
    • ◽ It’s been a long time coming, and it’s here! The first ones that I crafted when I started Heartily Handcrafted are actually bookmarks, but mostly I just used pens to design them. And now finally I got to paint the designs! I used gouache for this and I’m really enjoyed using this new medium! 🎨

Glowful Story 🌟

I believe the message of Christmas is, Jesus came to transform us from within and let our lives shine the love of our Saviour.

Last summer I launched my first-ever collection, and this is the second time that I’ll be having one, just fitting for the coming Holidays! ❄ I’m really glad to launch another one. There had doubts and challenges if I can finish the items, but God has been good to give me strength and restoration from the past months’ hurdles.

I initially thought of a goldish motif, but I shifted the thought to something that’s more about intrinsic. And I believe “Glow” is a more fitting description that I can say about Christmas. It’s not about the sparkles and glitzes, but something more that touches the heart deep and radiates beyond the eye can see. And that’s what I believe the message of Christmas is, Jesus came to transform us from within and let our lives shine the love of our Saviour. Not only a joyful thought but also glowful meaning! 💖
