Hey, I’m Anna Grace
Welcome! I’m glad you’re here! I could’ve never dreamt that this is where I would be five years ago starting this little business as a little 13 year old. I am now a freshman at the University of Sioux Falls working towards my degree in graphic design and photography with a minor in marketing! I grew up in small town Marshall, Minnesota where this little business really grew its roots. I am passionate about the gospel, relationships, & everything involving creativity. I live and breathe art & I want to do everything I can to create beautiful things for others. When I am not creating new things, you can often find me studying, working a few other amazing jobs, playing volleyball, hanging with my friends and family, or bike riding with my sister Kate! This being said, I am a busy college kid figuring out how to navigate this whole thing on the side. I will try my best to work around deadlines and get your orders to you on time. If my life starts to get a little too crazy, I will be shutting down shop for a while to catch up! As always, my hope for this business is that you would catch a glimpse of just how beautiful Jesus really is. Want to know how this whole thing started? Here’s how it all began…
It all began with an idea. I was a little girl with this wild thought in my mind that would not go away… How do I know who Jesus is if I don’t know the very word of God? In December of 2018, I asked for a blank bible for Christmas. My parents gifted it to me on Christmas Eve, and I painted it the very next day. From there, I started reading it every day, and my life changed. Jesus met me where I was at. It was such a deep peace that I had never felt before that drove me to the quiet place every day & I wanted others to know about it. I was a 13 year old girl filled with awe at how good our God really was. I saw how much the word of God was alive and active after just a few months of being in the word and I decided I needed to share that with the world. On May 24, 2019, I started my own account on Instagram to share my art with the world. I did this with the hopes that maybe a few people would decide to follow along. I had no idea what I was doing but I was going to do it anyways. I started with thirty followers, and let me tell you, they were SUPPORTIVE. I started getting custom orders. It was wild. I had no idea what I was doing. I started learning as I went & I made a million mistakes. I started painting signs, journals, and ornaments. I was invited to set up at Crazy days here in Marshall, and that was when I realized this could turn into something big. I started selling my products at Nessa’s Naturals and Noble Woman in downtown Marshall. I bought my own iPad and taught myself how to do digital design. I started to paint my own journals and bibles each time I would run out of room in the last one and my collection started to overflow. High school got crazy and life got crazier. Through Covid, cancer, anxiety, & two really difficult years - the word of God was my anchor through all of the difficult things going on in my life and creating was my outlet. It was something that connected me with the father and gave me a peace that I cannot explain. It allowed me to step away from reality and use my silly little hands to create silly little things & it was all a gift from Jesus. Since I started that instagram page that random afternoon, I have illustrated a book with my cousin, taught an art class to younger kids at SMSU, worked with countless people, shipped orders all over the US, launched my second website, and started a clothing brand that has been on my heart for nearly four years now. Somehow that little 13-year-old’s idea turned into something huge & I still can’t believe it. Here I am three years later as an 18-year-old & nothing gives me more life than being able to create beautiful things that I get to share with the world. None of it would’ve happened without all of you & the people who have been there from the beginning. Thank you Jesus for being faithful through it all.
