💎✨ PETYO’S DIAMONDS OF HOPE – MONDAY UPDATE ✨💎

Another Monday, and time for our little weekly update. ❤️

This week Petyo has something new to show you — his sparkling Christmas canvases. 🎄✨

We have the smaller 15 × 15 cm canvases, plus the larger 20 × 20 cm “Letters to Santa” design. 🎅💌

Each canvas comes with its own display stand, making it easy to pop on a shelf, mantel, side table or amongst your Christmas decorations.

💎 THIS WEEK’S FUND UPDATE

There have been no new sales added to the fund this week, so our total remains:

❤️ £77.19 RAISED

🎯 GOAL: £4,000

✨ £3,922.81 TO GO

Of course I would love to see that number moving faster, but we’re not giving up.

Petyo keeps creating, I keep sharing, and we keep going — one little diamond at a time. 💎❤️

Remember, 100% of Petyo’s diamond-art sales goes directly towards his fund, along with 20% of my candle sales.

Thank you to everyone who follows his journey, shares his work and supports Petyo’s Diamonds of Hope. ❤️

New week. New creations. Same goal. 💎

✨ ONE ORDER PACKED… AND STRAIGHT ONTO THE NEXT! ✨
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
One order carefully packed and ready to go. 📦❤️
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
And before the tape is even properly put away… the next one has already taken over the table. 😂
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
☕ Coffee poured.
🧶 Yarn everywhere.
🪝 Hook in hand.
🤍 And the first little pieces are already appearing…
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
This is the bit you don’t always see behind the finished pictures.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Every handmade order starts somewhere — with a pile of yarn, an idea, a crochet hook and, in my case, definitely a cup of coffee. 😂☕️
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
I’m not showing you what this one is going to become just yet… 👀

💎✨ PETYO’S DIAMONDS OF HOPE – MONDAY UPDATE ✨💎

Christmas has arrived in Petyo’s little diamond-art corner. 🎄❤️

He has been busy working on these beautiful sparkling Christmas decorations — Santa, reindeer, baubles, bells, a Christmas tree and more.

One tiny diamond at a time. 💎

They can decorate the Christmas tree, hang from a festive garland, or simply add a little sparkle around the home.

And we have another little bit of good news this week…

❤️ One of Petyo’s cards sold yesterday for £5!

So our fund has moved again:

💎 Previous total: £72.19

💌 Card sale: +£5.00

✨ NEW TOTAL: £77.19

🎯 GOAL: £4,000

Every sale of Petyo’s diamond-art creations goes 100% into his fund, and 20% of my candle sales goes into it too.

We are raising towards the Vielight Neuro Duo 4 photobiomodulation device for Petyo. We know it isn’t a cure, and we continue to follow the research carefully, but it is something we hope to try as part of his care.

£77.19 may still look like a long way from £4,000… but every card, every decoration and every little diamond takes us one step further. ❤️

Thank you to everyone supporting Petyo’s Diamonds of Hope — by buying, sharing, commenting or simply following his journey.

Diamond by diamond, we keep going. 💎❤️

🎃🦇 WHO SAID HALLOWEEN HAS TO BE SCARY? 🦇🎃

We’ve been showing you lots of candles lately, so today I thought I’d give the wax a little rest and bring out the yarn instead. 🧶❤️

Meet our cheeky little Halloween Crochet Crew!

💜 Purple bats

🎃 Pumpkin basket

🧙‍♀️ A tiny witch’s hat

💚 And plenty of handmade character!

Everything is created stitch by stitch, making each piece just a little bit different and completely unique.

Halloween can be spooky…

But it can also be colourful, funny and ridiculously cute. 😂

After all…

BATS ARE YOUR FRIENDS TOO! 🦇❤️

✨ MONDAY UPDATE — A WHOLE YEAR OF SPARKLE ✨

Petyo has been busy again… and this time his diamonds have turned into something that can be enjoyed all year long. ❤️

Introducing his 2027 Diamond Art Desk Calendar. 📅💎

From January right through to December, every month has its own sparkling diamond-art design, changing with the seasons and special occasions throughout the year.

It has taken time, patience and lots and lots of tiny diamonds — but Petyo has really enjoyed working on something a little different. ❤️

These calendars will be available MAKE TO ORDER ONLY, so please order well in advance if you would like one.

Because each one is individually made, designs may vary from the calendar shown — which also means every one will have its own little character. ✨

They would make a beautiful Christmas gift, a New Year gift, or simply something cheerful and sparkly to keep on your desk throughout 2027. 🎁

And, of course, this is part of Petyo’s Diamonds of Hope — our ongoing project to raise money towards the Vielight near-infrared photobiomodulation device we hope to purchase for him.

💎 Fund update

Previous total: £72.19
Added this week: £0.00
Current total: £72.19
Our goal: £4,000

The number hasn’t changed this week, but Petyo has certainly not stopped creating. ❤️

If you would like a 2027 calendar, please message me in advance so Petyo has plenty of time to make it.

Thank you to everyone who continues to follow his little project, share his work and encourage him. It means more than you realise. ❤️

🍂🕯️ SUNDAY AT GLOW & STITCH JOY… 🕯️🍂

No orders to pack today 🥲 so I thought I’d use the quiet Sunday to clean, tidy and finish some of the projects already waiting for me.

That was the plan anyway… 😂🤦🏻‍♀️

Somehow the table is now covered in candles, autumn leaves, pumpkins, mushrooms, little characters, crochet, wicks, coffee… and even more new creations than I started with. 😂

This is the side of Glow & Stitch Joy you don’t normally see.

Not the carefully arranged finished photographs.

Not the pretty gift boxes.

Just my table, my coffee, my hands busy making things… and the wonderfully messy creative process behind it all. ❤️

There may be no orders going out today, but there is certainly no shortage of ideas coming in. 🍁🕯️🧶

And apparently I am much better at creating new things than finishing my to-do list. 😂🤦🏻‍♀️

Happy Sunday from my little corner of creative chaos. ❤️
