iris blossom designs

Hello and welcome, everyone! This store was created during a difficult time in my life when I was facing health challenges. After being diagnosed with ovarian cancer, I had to overcome a period of depression before I could formally start this endeavor. To lift my spirits, I began spreading awareness about ovarian and breast cancer, drawing from my own experiences and expanding to include other types of cancer affecting people I knew. As I received messages from individuals sharing how my design efforts had helped them encouraged me to do even more. Though I initially felt hesitant and withdrawn, a pivotal moment came when a man with breast cancer asked about my involvement in awareness campaigns. This pushed me to share my story. Over the past five years, I've gradually gained more confidence and become more open. Now, in 2024, I see this as a new chapter in my journey. Fortunately, I didn't need cancer treatment, but regular check-ups took a toll on my mental health since at first starting from three months to six months then annually for two years but decreased to every six months in the last two years. Anxiety and sleep troubles made everyday tasks tough. There were times when my mind was willing, but my body wasn't, or vice versa. It's been a struggle, but I've made progress. This store aims to spread peace, unity, and awareness through designs inspired by life, nature, and music. It has various categories with awareness as a special one, dedicated to raising awareness for various campaigns, causes, fundraising, and advocacy efforts, especially for those who are fighting, have fought, or have survived cancer. The goal is to help them overcome their struggles, feel more confident in themselves and be supported. The rest of the categories are for small businesses, events, and home and lifestyle needs.
