Hope Cranes

05/29/2023

I wore these out to celebrate my late birthday dinner and my mom’s later Mother’s Day dinner. She wore the black and white one’s I gave her. We had fun flying our hopecranes 😉 I’ve been having a rough time lately with a lot of physical, emotional, and mental changes and they just gave me a little feeling of peace. ☺️

My mom’s cousin Susan bought a pair of earrings from me and this is a picture of her unboxing from me. This is the text she sent to my mom after receiving them. It’s such a nice review 🥰🥰”Hi Kim,  I’ve been meaning to have you pass on a thank you to Katie for the beautiful crane earrings packaged so nicely with such a lovely crane on an envelope with a handwritten note…all so special and can really appreciate! I also loved how she wrapped my earrings in simple, slightly silver  glittered tissue paper with matching silver threaded string….all so tastefully done and special!”

These dangle pendants are bringing the elegance! I only have only have one style up on the website. For those that don’t know me, I’m a full time middle school art teacher so I work about 60 hours a week between teaching, running art clubs, grading and lesson planning. I LOVE coming home and making jewelry while watching tv in the background but adding stuff and editing my website is not my favorite task. On top of everything I have ADHD so doing tasks I’m not fond of (like photographing products, and anything to do with technology) is like pulling my own teeth lol It’s finally winter break though so I’ll have a few weeks off from school so I plan to update my website and add a bunch of new earring styles and necklaces. If you ever see anything on Instagram that you’re interested in that’s not on my website though you can always DM me! :) As always thanks for all your support, likes, follows, and shares!!! Happy Holidays friends!

Felt cute rocking a new pair of earrings I made last night. I’m masking up this week because I don’t want to get sick before I go out of town this weekend. Covid still runs rampant and the kids at school are sniffing and sneezing and snotty bleh!

Hope Cranes is my small business where I am the sole creator of paper crane jewelry and home decor. The paper crane is a symbol of good luck, happiness, good health, and longevity and it is my hope that my customers experience these wonderful things in their lives. It is also my hope that in the future I will be able to sell enough products to donate a portion of my proceeds to a charity in need. This is why I have created Hope Cranes. Please help to support by purchasing on hopecranes.com, or by spreading the word through following, liking, and sharing on Facebook and Instagram. Every little bit helps us small business owners. 🥰
