“Snow was falling,
so much like stars
filling the dark trees
that one could easily imagine
its reason for being was nothing more
than prettiness.”
― Mary Oliver

If these stories encourage you, we’d be so grateful if you would consider sharing our winter collection with a friend. In a world of ever-changing algorithms, plain ole word-of-mouth continues to be our most powerful marketing tool. ❤️
P.S. Thank you so much to those of you who ordered our first ever print magazine! Pre-orders are now closed. We will be offering a limited stock again starting December 26th. Keep an eye on your inbox for the link!
This collection was not, however, free to make. ❤️ Did you know we pay our writers (and photographers!) for every piece we publish at Coffee + Crumbs? Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU to our paid Substack subscribers for supporting women & the arts, and for allowing us to present our work in a beautiful, ad-free environment. We are immensely grateful for you!
Instantly started with “Stay Curious” since curiosity is one of our family’s values, and the lessons at the end gave me chills in a good way! Fantastic! Cant wait to read the other pieces of art 💕
