Cosmic Design Studio

🎺🎪✨THANK YOU SWANSEA!✨🎪🎺
Wow. I’m completely blown away by yesterday’s turnout at the beautiful event organised by Craft & Flea!
You all shopped and chatted the day away, and during the rush of seeing all your lovely faces I completely lost track of time. What an incredible turnout and what a stunning venue. 🏰
This is one of only three photos I managed to take all day, which probably tells you everything you need to know because I’m usually determined to capture every market moment. 📸
I really need to tell you all that yesterday’s event felt like a turning point for both me and Cosmic.
In recent months it’s been increasingly challenging to keep up with the pace of my day job while also building Cosmic into what I know it can become. But please know that every time you stop by, have a chat, share a kind word, or make a purchase, you’re doing so much more than exchanging your hard-earned money for artwork, stickers, notepads and little treasures.
You’re putting a proverbial log on my fire. 🔥
You give me hope, motivation and the energy to keep going when things feel difficult.
You’re not just buying a notepad. You’re helping me make my dream come true and holding my hand while I take another step towards it. ✨
For that, I am eternally grateful. ❤️‍🔥
And to my wonderful maker family: I genuinely can’t imagine how much duller life would be without this incredible community of creative, inspiring humans.
I do most of these events on my own, so every time someone offers to help carry a heavy stock box, lends a hand during setup, checks in, or cheers me on, I feel so supported. We look after one another. We celebrate each other’s wins. We show up for each other.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. ❤️
I’m absolutely exhausted today, but I’ve been floating on cloud nine ever since.
Sorry for the long cheesy caption, but if you made it this far you’re a real G, so here’s a snack for your efforts 🍫🍬🍿

🖤✨ TOMORROW’S THE DAY ✨🖤

For everyone whose to-do list is 37% productivity, 28% emotional support, and 35% pure chaos…

My brand new notepad collection is landing on the website TOMORROW. 🖤

Because if we’re going to procrastinate, spiral, manifest, overthink, and somehow still get things done, we might as well do it on cute stationery.

Designed for goth girls, alt babes, emo hearts, spooky creatives, and anyone who refuses to settle for boring office supplies.

Expect:
✨ Sassy reminders
✨ Cute-but-slightly-unhinged energy
✨ Whimsical designs
✨ Desk accessories that actually make you want to write things down

Perfect for journaling, brain dumps, shopping lists, plotting your next life reinvention, or writing down all the things you’re definitely going to do tomorrow. 👀

🖤 Launching tomorrow at cosmicdesignstudio.shop

Tell me which design is immediately coming home with you… because I genuinely can’t pick a favourite.

March recap, aka: proof that I can do hard things… just sometimes dramatically and with snacks in between.

– launched the website (!! still feels illegal to have a real URL)– crawled back into the world of in-person markets and remembered… wait… I actually love talking to people??– spent my money responsibly (read: supporting incredibly talented local artists because self-control is a myth)– continued my long-term situationship with the pull-up bar (we are not exclusive yet, she’s still seeing other girls)

This month felt like stretching back into parts of myself I missed: the brave part that tries, the playful part that creates, the slightly delusional part that believes “maybe THIS is the month I get my first pull-up”

It wasn’t perfect. It wasn’t effortless. But it was movement. And right now, that counts for everything.

Here’s to building things, showing up scared, and celebrating the tiny wins along the way 🖤✨
