A Year of Growth, Grit & Hope at Rockin’ Threads Creations
This year hasn’t been the easiest one for Rockin’ Threads Creations — and that’s something I want to be open about.
Behind the pretty photos and carefully stitched flowers were quiet craft fairs, lower-than-hoped-for sales, and moments of wondering whether I was doing the right thing. Running a small handmade business can be incredibly rewarding, but it can also be tough — especially when things don’t go as expected.
There were times this year where it felt heavy. Times where I had to step back, rethink, and learn the hard way. And yes, next year I may be getting a job alongside my business — not because I’m giving up, but because sometimes you do what you need to do to keep going.
And that’s okay.
What This Year Taught Me
Even in a difficult year, there was growth.
I learned:
What truly works and what doesn’t.
How important community and genuine support are.
That handmade still matters, even in quieter seasons.
That resilience is built one small step at a time.
Every slow fair and quiet week came with lessons I’ll be carrying forward.
Still Blooming
Despite everything, Rockin’ Threads Creations is still here.
This year, your favourite crocheted flowers included:
Birth Month Flowers
Sunflowers
Lilies
Delphinium
Gladiolus
Each order, message, and kind word reminded me why I started this journey — to create meaningful, lasting flowers for life’s moments, big and small.
Looking Ahead to 2026
I truly believe 2026 is going to be a better year.
Not a perfect one — but a more focused, sustainable, and thoughtful one. A year where I refine instead of rush, grow at my own pace, and build a business that works with life rather than against it.
Rockin’ Threads Creations isn’t going anywhere. If anything, it’s growing stronger roots.
A Small Thank You: End-of-Year Sale
As a thank you for supporting my small handmade business , especially through a tough year, I’m running an end-of-year sale until 1st January 2026.
If you’ve been thinking about:
Treating yourself to flowers that never fade.
Gifting something meaningful.
Supporting handmade as we head into a new year.
This is a lovely time to do so. 💛
Every order truly helps support this small business as it steps into its next chapter.
Thank you for being part of this journey — the good, the hard, and everything in between.
Here’s to learning, growing, and hopefully sorting out a blooming business in the year ahead 🌸

Willeke
