Welcome to The Sunshine Letters Blog

I’m Michelle, and I’m so pleased you are here.

So, The Sunshine Letters began with two sisters – me and my lovely sister Victoria - and one crazy idea!!:

“Wouldn’t it be lovely to receive something beautiful, uplifting, joyful through the letterbox – not a bill, no demands on our time or energy…

…. Simply a little something just for us….. ?”

Life gets so busy and I think it’s so easy to lose the little things that make us feel like ‘us’ somehow.

Our energy and time is spent working, looking after others, problem solving, plugging the gaps, remembering things, sorting things out and getting through our endless lists and generally spinning plates. 

Simple pleasures and time to just be yourself become a bit of a luxury and often an afterthought… somewhere along the way. 

This happened to me for many years – I was creative and loved drawing during my school days and teens, then life seemed to click into ‘fast-forward-survival-mode’ – I had a lovely son then found the love of my life - yes that is the right way round 😊

… and picked up the pencils again twenty-odd years later – and here I am painting and drawing to my heart’s content and pouring this into our letters…

The Sunshine Letters were created as a gentle, beautiful antidote to life being too fast sometimes….

Thoughtful ‘Wise Owlie Reflection” – more about Owlie as time goes on – we all need an Owlie in our life …

And, most importantly, a little reminder to make some space for you – you are important …
