Hey Tumblr! This is something I made recently, I hope it can inspire you just like it did me.

Materials:

Salt Dough (with added spell ingredients)

Paper Beads (with affirmations written)

Wooden Beads

Jasper

Acrylic Paint & Embroidery Floss

Mod Podge

Acorn Capsule (from amazon, spell ingredients placed inside)

Recycled Keychain Clip

And, if you wish to indulge me:

Everyone has at least one experience in their life where they were irreparably changed. When a person or event chemically alters your brain. When theres no going back to how things were before, for better or worse.

Some of these experiences are momentous, some of them are traumatic.

This keychain is my new little reminder. No matter how many times and by how many people my trust is broken— no matter how many times the love I give or the care I show is thrown back in my face— I wont let that break me.

I refuse to let those people win. I refuse to let the world win, and I keep loving in spite of it. I keep trusting in spite of it.

And to anyone who ends up actually reading this:

Though the world may seem bleak at times, keep looking for the beauty and the love and the magic.

- Raine :)
