Year End Reflections on Love, Connections, and Gratitude

27 December 2021
Ellie Thompson + Co. rings

Sometimes it felt like 2021 was just a long continuation of 2020 — 2020, the sequel, if you will. But there were good times, too, so we navigated the tough times and continued to grow with the help of you, our clients, family and friends.
 
The early days of the New Year are a chance to slow down and reflect on the past twelve months. So as the new year begins, I’d like to take a moment to express my gratitude to all of you.

I began the year with my Language of Love collection.  I sought to capture the spirit of love, a spirit that is open and vulnerable but also strong and resilient. This project got the year off to a strong start, and the spirit in which it was undertaken sustained me through these challenging times.

Connections with friends not only sustain us emotionally; they can drive us creatively. Over the course of the year, my clients have shared inspiring stories that have formed the basis of custom projects. These projects bring me closer to them, while guiding me to explore new creative ground. The pieces become a web of connection between me, my clients and their families and friends.

In other professions, people can produce something and never know who is on the other side of that product; rather than forming bonds and relationships, the thing that is made stands between them and the consumer or user. I’m so grateful to work in a profession where my work can bring people together. More than just a transaction, the joy of creating gets poured into each piece and passed on to the client, who then shares it with friends, family and in some small way everyone who sees it.

Those new friends and new clients (and clients who became friends, and friends who became clients) allowed me to move into a new location back in 2019. It has been perfect from the beginning, and took just a little work to get it up and running. This year, all that work paid off, and the store was featured in the “America’s Coolest Stores” series in Instore Magazine, taking 3rd place in the “Small Cool” category.

All of my success comes back to the friends I’ve made with my business. A small business thrives on word of mouth; satisfied customers telling others where they found that necklace or those earrings is what allows a business like mine to thrive. So with sincerity and a heart full of gratitude, I’d like to thank my friends and clients, both those I’ve known for years and those who just came into my life in 2021, and wish you all happiness, health, and beauty in 2022. Here’s hoping that 2022 is not 2020, too!

  • Dear Team at elliethompsonco.com

    My name is Aubrey and I am a volunteer with Hope For Ukraine Charity. I have found you on Facebook

    After two years since the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, at least 6 million people have fled Ukraine to escape the conflict and another 5 million people are internally displaced.

    Leaving behind their homes, jobs and loved ones, Ukrainians urgently need shelter, food and water. More than 17 million people, almost half the population, require humanitarian aid.

    Life for the people of Ukraine has completely changed. Fighting and indiscriminate bombing has killed families and destroyed houses, schools and hospitals. Millions in displacement centres and damaged homes face temperatures below -20C.

    An estimated 1.4 million houses have been damaged by the war, and it is mostly older people and people with disabilities who remain behind in homes with leaking roofs, broken windows and no access to heating.

    Your generous contributions to our Ukraine Humanitarian Crisis Appeal helped over 140,000 vulnerable women, men and children access vital aid including food, water, shelter and counselling support.

    Thanks to you, our local partners are helping people to rebuild their lives after experiencing trauma, losing loved ones, homes and livelihoods.

    We have also responded quickly through the Caritas network – which CAFOD is a member of – to provide shelter, food and safe spaces for families who have lost everything.

    The humanitarian professionals and volunteers working on your behalf live locally and are from the communities that you are supporting. Many have been displaced by the war themselves. They understand people’s specific needs: from food and water, to shelter and clothing, to medical, psychological, and spiritual support. No two people are the same, no two crises are the same.

    Thanks to your kind donations and support, we have delivered vital assistance to over 120,000 mothers, children and elderly people since the first months of the conflict. We are part of a Caritas response that has reached over 2 million refugees and internally-displaced people. By working together we are making a difference to the lives of those in greatest need.

    When the emergency needs of families affected by the Ukraine conflict have been met and international attention turns to other crises, we are committed to be there in the long-term, to ensure that the communities you are helping can rebuild and heal.

    How will my donation help?
    More than 17 million people, almost half the current population of Ukraine, are now in need of humanitarian aid. With your help, we can keep supporting the increasing number of families who are in desperate need.

    Your donation will help local experts in Ukraine to keep providing:

    - food, water, and hygiene items

    - shelter and clothing

    - healthcare

    - education

    - counselling and group therapy.

    Please show your support for Ukraine by donating to the below cryptocurrency wallet addresses. No donation is too small. All funds received will be used to buy humanitarian aid for the people of Ukraine. Unfortunately, we are currently not accepting bank payments as we are looking for a new banking partner.

    I thank you for your support and making a difference.
