πŸ‡§πŸ‡¬πŸŽ„ THREE PIECES OF BULGARIA πŸŽ„πŸ‡§πŸ‡¬Three regions. Three candles. One beautiful tradition. ❀️Today, I’m delighted to introduce something a little different from my usual Christmas creations.A collection inspired by the beauty of traditional Bulgarian embroidery β€” ΡˆΠ΅Π²ΠΈΡ†Π°.❀️ BURGAS β€” Southeastern BulgariaπŸ’š SOFIA β€” Western Bulgaria🀍 KAPANSKA β€” Northeastern BulgariaEach candle features its own hand-embroidered design, carefully stitched one stitch at a time.And when I say handmade, I really mean it! 😊Each piece of embroidery takes me approximately one full day to complete.The candles are then individually decorated with rustic ribbons, festive greenery and traditional Bulgarian ornaments.But these are more than Christmas decorations to me.They carry memories, traditions and a little piece of the country that will always be part of who I am. β€οΈπŸ‡§πŸ‡¬πŸŽ„ Available individually or as a complete collection.✨ MADE TO ORDER ONLY! Because every embroidery is stitched individually, please allow plenty of time when ordering. ❀️✨ Handmade with love by Glow & Stitch Joy ✨

πŸ‡§πŸ‡¬β€οΈ WHEN THREADS TELL A STORY… 🧡❀️ This is not just embroidery. It’s a little piece of my homeland, Bulgaria.🌸 Traditional Bulgarian embroidery, known as shevitca (ΡˆΠ΅Π²ΠΈΡ†Π°), has been part of our culture for generations.πŸ‡§πŸ‡¬ The pattern I’m working on comes from the Burgas region, a place very close to my heart, where my husband and kids were born and where we spent many happy years together before moving to the UK.🧡 This beautiful design is featured in the book β€œΠ’Π°Π½Ρ†ΡŠΡ‚ Π½Π° ΡˆΠ΅Π²ΠΈΡ†ΠΈΡ‚Π΅β€ (The Dance of the Embroideries).❀️ The great Bulgarian writer Nikolay Haytov described traditional embroidery patterns as dancing in a certain rhythm, forming a living system.✨ DID YOU KNOW THAT EVERY COLOUR CARRIES A SPECIAL MEANING IN BULGARIAN FOLKLORE?❀️ RED – Protection against evil.πŸ’š GREEN – Nature, life and growth.πŸ’™ BLUE – Faith, wisdom, the sky and purity.πŸ’› YELLOW – The sun, warmth and light.πŸ–€ BLACK – The eternal struggle between good and evil.🀍 WHITE – Purity, innocence and peace.🌸 For generations, Bulgarian women have passed down these beautiful patterns, preserving traditions, beliefs and stories through needle and thread.❀️ And now, thousands of miles away from home, I’m bringing a little piece of that heritage into something new.🧡 Every stitch is made by hand.πŸ‡§πŸ‡¬ Every colour tells a story.❀️ Every pattern carries a little piece of history.πŸŽ„ Somewhere between tradition, memories and creativity, a little Christmas surprise is slowly coming to lifeβ€¦πŸ€« But I’m keeping the final creation a secret for now!πŸŽ„βœ¨ A LITTLE QUESTION FOR YOU…Would you welcome a touch of traditional Bulgarian embroidery into your Christmas decorations?❀️ I’d love to hear your thoughts!✨ Glow & Stitch Joy – Handmade with Love ❀️

πŸ’™πŸ§Ά TINY TEETH, BIG FEELINGS! πŸ§ΆπŸ’™

Candles can wait… πŸ•―οΈ

Christmas projects can wait… πŸŽ„

Even the never-ending list of unfinished crafts can wait!

But babies?

❀️ BABIES DON’T WAIT! ❀️

πŸ‘Ά Tiny teeth are on their way.

Baby is crying.

Mummy is worrying.

Daddy is pacing the floor at 3 am.

And nobody in the house remembers what a proper night’s sleep feels like anymore! πŸ˜‚

And Grandma?

Well… Grandma reaches for her crochet hook! πŸ§ΆπŸ’™

A little natural wood, soft cotton baby yarn, beautiful shades of blue and a generous helping of grandmotherly love.

Something completely different from my usual candles and Christmas creations.

A little handmade project inspired by real family life, those sleepless nights, and the tiny people who turn our world upside down. πŸ₯°

Because sometimes the smallest creations carry the biggest stories. ❀️

And believe me, with five grandchildren, Grandma knows a thing or two about babies, sleepless nights and creative solutions! πŸ˜‚β€οΈπŸ’™

πŸ’Žβœ¨ PETYO’S DIAMONDS OF HOPE – MONDAY UPDATE βœ¨πŸ’Ž

Another Monday, and time for our little weekly update. ❀️

This week Petyo has something new to show you β€” his sparkling Christmas canvases. πŸŽ„βœ¨

We have the smaller 15 Γ— 15 cm canvases, plus the larger 20 Γ— 20 cm β€œLetters to Santa” design. πŸŽ…πŸ’Œ

Each canvas comes with its own display stand, making it easy to pop on a shelf, mantel, side table or amongst your Christmas decorations.

πŸ’Ž THIS WEEK’S FUND UPDATE

There have been no new sales added to the fund this week, so our total remains:

❀️ £77.19 RAISED

🎯 GOAL: £4,000

✨ £3,922.81 TO GO

Of course I would love to see that number moving faster, but we’re not giving up.

Petyo keeps creating, I keep sharing, and we keep going β€” one little diamond at a time. πŸ’Žβ€οΈ

Remember, 100% of Petyo’s diamond-art sales goes directly towards his fund, along with 20% of my candle sales.

Thank you to everyone who follows his journey, shares his work and supports Petyo’s Diamonds of Hope. ❀️

New week. New creations. Same goal. πŸ’Ž
