Why Gratitude Stars

I created this flexible design form at the beginning of the pandemic and gifted my first 40 stars to front-line workers as tokens of my gratitude for their service and sacrifice during those trying times.

 

I started selling them in 2021 but I still donate stars to helpful workers as gratitude for their service. See how you can help by purchasing a star.

How Gratitude Stars are Made

Each gratitude star consists of 48 identically shaped strips of durable card stock paper. This provides a flexible "canvas" that can support over a billion possible star designs.

Subtle and Serene

These stars feature subtle transitions between shades of a single hue.

Bold and Beautiful

Bold collisions of colors make these stars stand out in any location.

My Art Therapy Journey

Focusing while building Gratitude Stars,

helps my chronic pain fade into the background.
