The Shape of Winter – A Reflection on Twelve Days of Winter Collection

TRANQUIL • LUMINOUS • ROOTED

Stories from the studio, reflections on process, and the art of the handmade.

Before the unveiling comes reflection. Twelve winter words — once scattered and separate — now gather as one: a story that became books, ornaments, and pagekeepers in the Twelve Days of Winter Collection.

A Winter Story: The Twelve Days of Winter Collection

For months, the studio has been steeped in words. One by one, they arrived — short, luminous, and full of promise. Each carried its own texture, its own light, its own way of speaking to winter. Now, gathered together, they form something whole: a map of the season, drawn in language and making.

The Twelve Days of Winter Collection is about to be revealed — the culmination of these twelve words translated into handmade books, pagekeepers, and ornaments. But first, a pause. A moment to see what the words themselves have created — how they’ve intertwined and shaped this story of winter.

A Winter Story in Twelve Parts

🕊️ Echo — the lingering sound of memory and return.

❄️ Frost — stillness crystallized, silence made visible.

🔥 Kindle — the spark that begins warmth, connection, and story.

🌙 Shimmer — movement caught in light, the briefest gleam.

💧 Glisten — water and radiance, the sheen of quiet beauty.

🌲 Pine — rootedness and scent, the forest’s steady breath.

🩶 Ember — the last glow of fire, the persistence of warmth.

🌨️ Drift — the hush of snowfall, the soft surrender of time.

🕯️ Glow — the pulse of light within the dark.

🤍 Snowfall — the sky’s gentle offering, layering the world anew.

🫶 Gather — the act of drawing close, of holding and being held.

🌟 Radiant — the culmination, when everything shines from within.

Twelve Words of Winter

Twelve small anchors in time. Some whispered of stillness, others of return. Together, they shaped the rhythm of the workbench — paper cut and stitched, thread drawn through linen, light shifting across metal and snow.

Gathering the Threads

Every season has its vocabulary. This one spoke softly — in silver mornings and slow afternoons, in the scent of pine and the hum of work. Each word became both guide and reflection, helping me see how light gathers even in stillness, how story takes form through repetition and care.

Now, with all twelve revealed, the story they’ve been leading toward is almost ready to emerge — a compilation of art and meaning drawn from these twelve simple words.

Soon, I’ll share what they became — the pieces themselves — each wrapped and waiting, each carrying its own small glimmer of winter.

Before the unveiling, a reflection. Soon — the full story of winter will unfold.

Your presence, your curiosity, and your time mean more than you know.
