Northwest Arkansas is serving up chilly weather today… but my hands didn’t get the memo thanks to this drink sleeve ❄️

✨ My word for the year is: Cultivate ✨
After a few seasons of feeling stuck in a creative funk, I realized I didn’t need pressure—I needed patience.
I needed curiosity.
I needed space to grow again.
My mantra this year is:
“I cultivate curiosity, creativity, and conscious growth.”
And honestly? That intention is what led me back here—creating with joy instead of expectation. Making things because they light me up. Letting inspiration return naturally, without forcing it.
🌼 Wild Dandelion Collective was born from that shift.
A reminder that growth doesn’t have to be perfect to be beautiful.
That creativity can be wild, soft, intentional, and evolving all at once.
This year, I’m choosing to:
• try new things
• learn as I go
• honor my creative spark
• and cultivate what wants to grow
If you’re in a season of rediscovery too—welcome. We’re growing together 🤍
🌿✨

Don’t worry, I’ll still be sewing and setting up at markets but it will be more intentional and I’ll choose the market that best fits each of my creative outlets. It’s not goodbye to TCR, I’m just shifting my focus to find my creative joy.

I’d love for you to follow .dandelioncollective

All set up for market in Fayetteville today! TONS of vendors, food, and music!

P.S. as a side note 0/10 do not recommend hitting your head on a granite countertop when trying to pick something off the floor. The bruising spreads all the way down to your eyes and nose 🤦🏻‍♀️…lol

I’m no stranger to market prep! I’ve done this dozens of times. But getting ready for your first market in a new state is WILD! I’m starting to feel the jitters of not knowing what to expect from market coordinators, customers, the weather…you name it! I start asking myself all the questions I found myself asking at the beginning…how much inventory should I make? How much change should I bring? How will I know which product will be the most popular? So for the first time I’m going into peak market season as a veteran and newbie all at the same time. 😱

🚲 New! 🚲 This print captures the thrill of exploring Northwest Arkansas. Everyone loves biking here (endless trails!) and now you can have a bowl buddy to share in the adventure.
