No. 001 May 2026 Made with intention

Hello, I love being a creator and maker of things I hope genuinely help people. No schedule, no noise. Just finds, moon moments and things worth sharing when something's worth saying. This month I've been heads down building, finding good things and paying attention to the moon. Here's what's been on my mind. 🌿

During this month of May, I find myself waking up with the sun. I say hello to Max first, always. Then head into the kitchen to create my morning coffee and that first quiet moment of the day. I light an incense stick, sit in the stillness and the silence and just breathe for a minute. I hold my coffee, look at the light coming in and give thanks - for the day, for the little things, for all of it. Then I grab my pen and my daily planner and write out my to do list for the day. Slow, intentional, no rushing. It's become my favourite part of the morning.

Full moon
May Full Moon The Flower Moon

A little something for the soul.

May's full moon is called the Flower Moon. Named by Indigenous peoples for the abundance of flowers blooming across the earth at this time of year. What was once hidden underground, growing quietly in the dark, is now ready to emerge and be seen. This month also brings something rare. A Blue Moon on May 31st, the second full moon of the month. Once in a blue moon really does mean something.

What have you been quietly growing that's ready to bloom? 🌕

Things Worth Your Time.

May 2026

This month's finds are a little mix of things that have been on my desk, in my head and making my days a bit nicer. Nothing forced, nothing sponsored, just things I actually love.

Tisserand roller balls and room sprays

I've been reaching for the Tisserand roller balls and room sprays a lot lately. The scents are perfect for spring and they genuinely help me get into the right headspace before I sit down to work. I'm currently loving the Energy routine, a spritz of the room mist and a roll of the roller ball and I feel ready to go. A little natural ritual that makes a big difference in my day.

May's colour palette. Inspired by my recent trip to Amsterdam and a visit to the breathtaking tulip fields at Keukenhof. Warm reds, coral and the softest dusty pink. All pulled straight from the flowers themselves. Save the hex codes and bring a little spring into whatever you're building this month. 🌷
