Behind the Craft: Mirrors of Affirmation and My Journey to Positive Thinking

When I first started creating my mirrors of affirmation, it wasn’t just about making something beautiful—it was about something much deeper. I’ve always believed that what we surround ourselves with has a powerful impact on how we feel, but that belief was solidified through my own personal experiences with therapy.

The Spark of Inspiration

For years, I struggled with negative thoughts and self-doubt, something many of us can relate to. Therapy helped me understand the importance of mindset and how the words we speak to ourselves shape our reality. I learned that just like a mirror reflects what’s in front of it, our minds reflect what we feed it.

My therapist encouraged me to use affirmations to help rewire my thinking. This simple yet profound practice of repeating positive statements made me feel empowered, and over time, I began to notice a shift in my perspective.

Crafting My First Mirror of Affirmation

Inspired by my personal transformation, I wanted to create something that could serve as a daily reminder of positive thoughts for others. That's how my first mirror of affirmation came to life. I loved the idea of someone looking into a mirror and not just seeing their reflection, but being surrounded by words of encouragement and empowerment. It became more than just a decorative piece—it became a tool for self-love and affirmation.

The Meaning Behind the Mirrors

Each mirror I create carries the essence of what I’ve learned on my journey. The affirmations are carefully chosen because I know how powerful they can be. Whether it’s “You are enough” or “Embrace your strength,” these words are there to reflect back positivity and help reframe negative thoughts, just like they’ve done for me.

Why I Believe in the Power of Affirmations

Positive thinking isn’t something that happens overnight—it’s a practice. These mirrors are a visual reminder to pause and reflect on the good within ourselves. I hope that when someone looks into one of my mirrors, they not only see their reflection but are reminded of their worth and the strength they carry within.
