A Magical Evolution: Tiny Gnomes and the Start of 2025

 As we step into 2025, my word for the year Evolution is already coming to life. The creative energy is flowing, and I’m thrilled to share what’s happening in the Heart n Soul Studios world!  

Tiny Gnomes: Big Love in Small Packages
This year, I’m introducing a new line of Tiny Gnomes — adorable, pocket-sized creations that bring a touch of whimsy wherever they go. Each one will be numbered on the bottom and come with its own meaning card. I'm currently working on the Spring line featuring Ladybug Gnome, Dragonfly Gnome, and Flower Gnome just to name a few.  These little treasures are perfect for spring and beyond. Priced at $11 each or 2 for $20, I can already feel the excitement building for these bite-sized bursts of joy. 


Mushroom Jars: For Tooth Fairies and Treasures 
I’m also diving into a making more mini mushroom jars. These little jars hold just 5ml and are perfect for kids to use as tooth fairy jars or for adults to store crystal chips, sand, or other tiny treasures. They’re a delightful blend of functionality and fantasy that I can’t wait to share with you.  

Upcoming Adventures  
My first show of the 2025 season, The Goblin Market on March 2nd, is right around the corner. It’s an exciting way to kick off the year, and I’m already preparing to showcase these new creations alongside familiar favorites like the Lucky Pocket Gnomes.  You can find all my upcoming events here

As I continue to evolve and expand my collection, I’m incredibly grateful for the support of my family and this amazing community. You inspire me to keep dreaming, creating, and manifesting magic.  

Stay tuned for more updates as the season unfolds and be sure to check out my website all my whimsical creations.  

Thank you for visiting.
You are loved,
Maria

Embracing Evolution in 2025: My Vision and Intentions


As we step into 2025, I feel a sense of excitement and purpose blooming in my heart. This year, my chosen word is evolution—a reminder that growth, transformation, and progress are the guiding themes for the months ahead. My vision board reflects the dreams and goals I’ve set, and I’d love to share them with you.

Infusing My Creations with Positive Energy

Creating gnomes, fairy bottles, unicorns, Pegasus figures, mushroom houses, and dragons brings me so much joy. Each piece I make is infused with Reiki and positive energy, and this year, I plan to deepen that connection by incorporating my newfound interest in chakras and energy healing. The process of creating whimsical items is my way of spreading light and magic to others, and I hope my work continues to resonate with those seeking joy and spiritual growth.

A Personal Journey of Movement and Wellness

After losing some weight, I’m feeling more mobile and ready to embrace new physical challenges. Starting a beginner yoga class in January is something I’ve looked forward to for a long time. Yoga represents more than just exercise; it’s a chance to connect with my body, mind, and spirit while finding balance and peace. I’m so excited to move with intention and incorporate these practices into my daily life.

Financial Stability and Future Plans

This year, I’m also focused on financial growth. Paying off credit cards, saving money, and planning for the future are top priorities. Once my son Alex graduates high school, my dream is to purchase a home—a place that feels like ours, filled with love and comfort. By staying dedicated to my goals, I know this dream can become a reality.

The Gift of Retreat and Decluttering

Another goal for 2025 is to go on a retreat with friends. Taking time to recharge, refresh, and reflect is something I’ve always wanted, and I hope to make it happen this year. Alongside this, I’m determined to clean and declutter my life—physically and emotionally. Clearing out what no longer serves me will make space for new, beautiful things to enter.

Gratitude for the Journey

Looking at my vision board fills me with gratitude—for my journey, my family, and the support of everyone who believes in my creations. This year, I hope to continue spreading love, light, and whimsy through my work while evolving into the best version of myself.

If you’ve made it this far, thank you for being part of my journey. Here’s to a year of evolution, transformation, and magic. What’s your vision for 2025? I’d love to hear it!

The Magic of the Black Mushroom Jar: A Special Creation

There’s something truly enchanting about mushrooms—they evoke a sense of wonder, mystery, and connection to the natural world.  I had the joy of creating a very special piece: a black mushroom jar, a one-of-a-kind treasure designed to captivate and inspire. It was so much fun to bring this idea to life that I am opening up custom mushroom orders. 



Custom Mushroom Jar Orders
As the New Year unfolds, I’m thrilled to announce that I’ll be taking custom mushroom jar orders starting NOW! This is your chance to create a piece that’s uniquely yours. Whether you envision a jar inspired by vibrant autumn colors, glowing accents, or specific spiritual motifs, I’d love to bring your vision to life.


Custom orders allow you to add personal touches—think initials, special numbers, or even symbolic mushrooms that resonate with your journey. These jars make thoughtful gifts or a cherished addition to your own collection. You can order your very own mushroom jar on my website.  

Stay tuned for updates on new designs, show schedules, and stories behind the creations. As always, thank you for being part of this magical journey.

Love, Light, and Whimsy,
Maria
