Small Wonders

Small Wonders is a playful series celebrating everyday joy through small-scale making and sharing.

I love exploring all kinds of handcraft — from folding paper cranes and pressing flowers to beading and beyond. Each project is an opportunity to connect, create, and exchange ideas with others. Through a variety of materials and techniques, Small Wonders grows into a living community where the smallest gestures, a folded Origami, a pressed petal, a hand-beaded card — spark genuine connection and delight.

Snail Mail Club

nana's gathering monthly energy zine by Nana's Gathering

Nana's Gathering is a monthly mail club handmade in Frogtown, Los Angeles. Every month, a little package arrives in your mailbox — made entirely by hand, from one pair of hands, one intuition at a time.

✦ A botanical art print (8×5.5") An original painting printed and mailed to you — a new theme every month, inspired by the season, the energy, and whatever is growing.

✦ A hand-printed mini zine — Still Waters A small, palm-sized publication you can carry in your bag or keep on your shelf. Each issue weaves together the month's collective energy reading, Eastern astrology and the transition between zodiac seasons, chakra activation practice, guidance for love, work and self, a monthly ritual to carry with you, and a quiet zen story — a small parable to sit with. Something to return to throughout the month.

✦ Frogtown Secret Hours A personal diary insert — a behind-the-scenes dispatch from the Los Angeles neighborhood where all of this is made. Every issue reveals a hidden corner, a favorite place, a slow afternoon worth knowing about. A little map of the world behind the work.

✦ A hand drawn card (3×4.5") with envelope Made uniquely for you every month. No two are ever the same.

✦ Botanical aura stickers (approx. 1.5×1.5")

This is healing art made slowly, with intention. Organic in every sense of the word.

Frogtown Arts

Nana collaborates with arts organizations and nonprofits to bring hands-on creative experiences into the community — designing and leading workshops that are accessible, playful, and grounded in everyday materials.

In partnership with Frogtown Arts, Nana led an Earth Day workshop teaching participants how to make handmade botanical cards using pressed dried flowers and handcrafted paper — a quiet, sensory practice that connects people to nature and to each other.

If you're an organization looking to bring a creative workshop to your community, Nana would love to work together.
