Tiny Star Stories

Tiny Star Stories are so much more than just folded bits of paper – they are origami star-shaped thoughts, concepts, stories and poems to inspire, encourage and energise. They are my calm, my creative, my mindful, my passion and my splash of colour in every single day. They have been my guiding light through grief, illness and tough times, and each star is filled with joy, energy, meaning and purpose. For as long as I can remember, I have been in love with all things paper, and I am so happy to be sharing these beautiful, tactile little paper treasures with you.
