What is Marigold Moon Comfort Gift Boutique?

6 days ago3 min read

Well, welcome in friends! My name is Shelby and I'm a 31 year old gal from Louisville, Kentucky who joined the grief club way too early. In 2020, I watched the man I love unexpectedly pass away at 36 years old from a sudden pulmonary embolism. Two weeks later the world shut down for Covid-19. Now five years later, I am finally starting to see the light and love again. From a girl who has truly sat in the dark, maybe I can bring you just a glimmer of more light.

So, I am starting your new favorite cozy corner of the internet with Marigold Moon Comfort Gift Boutique. Comfy gifts for rough times you can actually relate to. Designed and curated by yours truly. This boutique is absolutely perfect for any person wanting to feel more normal while they heal, for any person having no idea how to support their loved one during a difficult time, for any person feeling like they might not survive their own journey, for any person wanting to give back and shop with purpose, or for any human being with a beating heart. (Click here for grief and mental health resources today.)

At Marigold Moon, we understand the impact of a thoughtful gift, and especially at the right time. Our mission is to uplift you and your loved ones with our comforting collection of decor, apparel, and self care gifts completely curated from our own experience with love, loss, and healing. Our favorite part about Marigold Moon, is every single purchase donates towards a charitable mental health or grief support organization that we cherish. It takes time to feel ready for help, but when you are, please know you are never alone. You can already find a beginning list of mental health or grief support foundations through our resources page here.

While we prepare to launch our full collection of comforting candles, lockets and jewelry, cards for tough occasions, healing essential oils, intentional journals, and more, we are designing our own line of apparel! We'll have the comfiest t-shirts, beanies, hats, and more with witty graphic designs all to normalize and lighten your healing era. And all completely designed by Marigold Moon! Here are a few samples of our preliminary designs:

Be sure to follow us on our Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook pages to stay the most up to date with sneak peeks, news, stories, and more!

We are so excited to form this family! In addition, keep checking back here weekly for future blog posts about the stigmas and stories of the healing journey! Our Instagram and Blog page will not only give great insight into our online boutique, but also insight into the healing era from a girl who's in it herself. With real stories from our other's in our community too. We all know this journey is anything but linear. And anything but easy. But you know what it really is more than we realize: normal. So many people are grieving and feeling alone than we realize. Everyone's healing journey is their own, but it's amazing how we feel when we have someone to relate to.

So thank you for following along as we get ready to launch our original Marigold Moon designs for you! Please email or DM us with any questions, suggestions, stories, or concerns at all! It might take a moment while we get started but we can't wait to connect with each and every one of you. It's taken a long time to find space in my heart for a goal that wasn't simply getting through the day. And if you are feeling this way too, stick around for Marigold Moon. You will get through the day. And you don't have to do it alone.
