A Quiet Determination
Nephele Atelier started as a dream.
While watching a livestream, on whatnot of all places, the streamer wasn't selling anything she was only chatting. Then someone asked for a tarot reading in chat which sparked a whole chain of everyone asking. The meaning behind the cards fascinated me to no end: the ritual of picking a card and the intentions of the cards sparked a flame in me. Then one thing led to another - crystals, rituals, candles, books, art, it was everything. It gave everything a meaning and purpose as opposed to just going through the motions day to day.
This shop is still very, very, very young and fresh and new. I am also a beginner in this world of craft. I'm still learning constantly! Sometimes the words escape me and I have no clue how to properly describe a feeling or vibe but I am trying my best to build a space around all of this new knowledge. Right now I am sourcing things I would personally purchase, I'm trying to be very intentional on what I add. One day I hope to make and ship everything directly, that is my biggest dream.
The name Nephele Atelier is for my daughter, Nepheli. The sweetest baby girl.
