In May of 2025, after 22 years in a corporate career, I felt God calling me in a new direction. At 52, I was struggling with identity and purpose, but every sign pointed toward change. I didn’t know where the path would lead, but I chose to trust Him and step out in faith.

That summer, during a beach vacation, the weather kept us indoors as the coast recovered from a recent hurricane. While searching for things to do, my husband found a decoupage class at a local art studio. We decided to try it — and it became one of the most peaceful, calming experiences I’d ever had.

Later that week, I dreamed I was walking along a river, looking down at beautiful stones beneath the water. In that moment, I felt God place something on my heart: use these simple, natural things to share His love and encourage others. I began collecting rocks, shells, and pebbles, decorating them with Scripture and messages of hope. On the days when I felt lost or unsure, creating these pieces kept me grounded and reminded me of His promises.

That is how Jesus Rocks and Shell Creations was born — out of faith, healing, and a desire to inspire others. Every piece is made with prayer, purpose, and gratitude. I give God all the glory for entrusting me with this opportunity to encourage hearts, one creation at a time.
