About The Gracewell Studio

Where artful living meets well-being.

Hello, and welcome in. However you found your way here, through a handmade piece, a story, or a friend who shared the link, I am so glad you came.

Gracewell is a studio, a shop, and a magazine, woven into one. A family built home for creativity, healing, and a life lived with intention.

What we stand for

Our values, lived every day.

  • 01

    Intentional Living

    The way we live our days is the way we live our lives. Every choice, every creation, every path at Gracewell is made with intention.

  • 02

    Authenticity

    We practice wellness here, the real kind. Real stories, real joy. You are welcome exactly as you are.

  • 03

    Creativity as Healing

    Making things is medicine. A bag, a journal entry, a Tinker Cube in restless hands. Creativity is one of the most powerful wellness tools we have.

  • 04

    Community and Connection

    We were made for each other. Gracewell is a gathering place, a group of people who see each other, lift each other, and show up for each other.

  • 05

    Sustainability and Purpose

    We upcycle. We repurpose. We breathe new life into what others set aside. Everything has worth.

  • 06

    Joy as a Practice

    Joy is a compass, a practice, and a birthright. We let it lead. It is woven into everything we make and every path we build.

Mission and vision

The intention behind everything we make.

Our Mission

To create a wellness ecosystem where healing, creativity, and intentional living meet, and where every person who enters finds a path that feels like it was made for them.

Our Vision

A world where people live fully and authentically. Where wellness is woven into the everyday through art, community, honest reflection, and the things we make and carry and share with one another.

Our Promise

To show up with warmth, honesty, and creativity. To make things that matter. To build community that holds. To grow this space in a way that honors every person who finds their way here.

Five paths · One studio

Each path, a chapter of a real life.

Each path was created from a season of my own life, so that wherever you are in yours, there is a place here that meets you. Walk one. Walk them all. Take what works.

01BelieveQuestioning, seeking, something stirring.

Born from years of spiritual seeking and the moment I said yes to becoming an interfaith minister.

Walk this path → 02ReinventionChanging, starting over, gold in the cracks.

Born from breaking open and choosing to rebuild differently.

Walk this path → 03WellnessTired, healing, slowing all the way down.

Rooted in the practices that carried me through the hardest seasons.

Walk this path → 04ConnectionLonging, belonging, finding your people.

What I know to be true about family, community, and belonging.

Walk this path → 05JoyPlayful, present, fully alive.

The thread that runs through all of it.

Love notes

They came. They stayed. They want you to know.

This bag is the perfect blend of practicality, charm, and craftsmanship. From the moment I held it in my hands, I could feel the care and attention poured into every detail. What truly sets it apart is how personal it feels. It is a statement piece that was made just for me. Every time I take it out, I get compliments, and I gush about how it is both beautiful and built to last. Catherine · Gracewell Tote

I love the cube. It is calming and fun to play with. When I am doing tasks at my desk I often use it with one hand and it improves my focus. A trip to the Gracewell website is a great reminder to reflect, create, and take care of yourself.

Victoria · Tinker Cube

I am very happy to have an upcycled cover for my Kindle. It feels like an extension of myself and I get compliments for how it matches my aesthetic. If someone wants something unique and handmade with intention, Gracewell is the place.

Amalia · Kindle Cover

I love the design, it is beautiful. And I love knowing it is a way of reusing and repurposing fabric. The size and the pockets inside make it really versatile. I would absolutely recommend Gracewell.

Joanie · Studio Tote

I purchased several Tinker Cubes and my grandchildren love them. My notebook cover is bright and beautiful. I have a small bag and a large bag, both fabulous. Best quality. One of a kind. All the products are just fantastic.

Márel · Tinker Cubes, Notebook Cover and Bags

Yes, this was easy. And I can not wait to order another.

Nick · Tinker Cube

I gave it to my daughter as a gift and she loves it. I would recommend Gracewell to anyone looking for something unique and meaningful.

A Gracewell Friend · Tinker Cube

Real people. Real pieces. Real stories. Yours is waiting.
