Almost One Year of Curious Octopus – A Journey in Creativity

It’s hard to believe, but Curious Octopus is almost one year old! What started as a small idea - to help people explore new crafts and enjoy the joy of making - has grown into a little creative community that I’m so proud of.

When I started Curious Octopus, my aim was simple: to give people the chance to be more creative, try new skills, and make something beautiful with their own hands. Life gets busy, and creativity can easily take a backseat. My hope is that every kit and every workshop can be a little invitation to pause, experiment, and discover the satisfaction of creating something from scratch.

✨ Why Creativity Matters to us at Curious Octopus

• It’s for everyone: You don’t need to be an expert - crafting is about exploring, learning, and having fun.

• It’s mindful: Spending time making something by hand helps quiet the mind and reduce stress.

• It’s empowering: Every project you complete is a reminder that you can try new things and succeed.

• It connects us: Sharing the process with others - whether in a live workshop or a gift for a friend - brings people together.

Over the past year, I’ve loved seeing people step out of their comfort zones, learn new skills, and take pride in their creations. Curious Octopus isn’t just about sending craft kits - it’s about inspiring a little more creativity in daily life, and helping people make time for themselves in a busy world.

🌟 Looking Ahead with Curious Octopus
