Happy International Women's Day!
Today, as we celebrate International Women's Day, I feel an immense sense of pride and gratitude. As a woman, and as the founder of Bone Boutique, this day resonates deeply with my personal journey and the values we strive to uphold in our business. It's a day to recognize the incredible achievements of women throughout history and in our present day, and to reflect on the ongoing journey towards equality and empowerment.
At Bone Boutique, we are more than just an art company; we are a woman-owned business built on the foundation of ethical principles and a profound respect for the natural world. We pour our hearts into crafting unique jewelry and sculptures from ethically sourced animal bones, honoring the animals and minimizing our environmental impact. This commitment to sustainability isn't just a business practice; it's a reflection of values that I, as a woman, deeply believe in – nurturing, responsibility, and creating beauty with intention.
As a female entrepreneur in the art world, the path hasn't always been without its challenges. When I first started Bone Boutique, peddling bones from my trunk on the side of the road and local parking lots in North Port was not an everyday thing you might see! It certainly wasn't the conventional to an art business! But with hard work, unwavering passion for the craft, and the support of my community, Bone Boutique has not only been well-received in my hometown but has grown into something truly special. This journey has taught me the power of perseverance and the importance of staying true to your vision, even when the path is unconventional.
This International Women's Day, we also want to shine a light on our sister art business, Images of Therapy. Founded by Phillip and myself, Images of Therapy shares our belief in the transformative power of art. Our mission is to ignite the creative spark within everyone. Through artistic exploration, we guide individuals on journeys of self-discovery and emotional well-being, transforming canvases into windows towards a brighter future. While Bone Boutique connects people to the beauty of the natural world through tangible art pieces, Images of Therapy uses art as a tool for inner exploration and healing. We see these two ventures as beautifully complementary, both rooted in the profound impact art can have on our lives and our well-being.
On this International Women's Day, let's celebrate not only the accomplishments of women in business and art, but women everywhere – their resilience, their creativity, and their unwavering contributions to our world. Let us continue to support women-owned businesses, champion women artists, and work towards a future where all women have the opportunity to thrive and make their unique mark.
