How creativity has improved my mental health

by Lauren Heim on October 21, 2020

I started dabbling in lettering nearly a decade ago. I had just graduated from college, got engaged and started my first full-time job all in the same week (phew!). I was knee-deep…

My thing for sweets started at a young age, when my mom would take me to get a frosted sprinkle cookie at Oak Park Mall in Overland Park. She passed on her…

I miss #laurenheimworkshops, gathering in one room I miss #laurenheimworkshops, gathering in one room and lettering with you in person! With all the treats, creativity and conversation. I have high hopes of resuming Brush Lettering 101 Workshops in Kansas City in 2021. But I also find something so magical about being able to reach and connect with women I otherwise wouldn’t have had the opportunity to, by teaching online. I know Zoom gets a bad rap this year for endless boring meetings, but I couldn’t be more grateful for technology. Because at #laurenheimletteringclub, our live workshops are not your typical Zoom meeting experience! At #laurenheimletteringclub, my new monthly lettering community, we are able to gather with women both in and out of Kansas City. Women at all walks and stages of life, with busy schedules, 9-5s, running businesses, homeschooling children, in college, retired, starting first jobs, going back to school, raising newborns. Life is busy. But thanks to technology we we can fit creating together consistently into our busy schedules. Every single month, I share a new video, supply list and worksheets, encouraging you to create a new lettering project! Connection and creativity can and has happened from afar. I’ve seen lettering make waves in your lives, like it has in mine. I probably would not have taken this step had it not been for the pandemic. When I thought 2020 was slamming the door shut on my workshops, it actually opened a new door to teaching you online. I am grateful for you, for technology, and unexpected blessings this weird year has brought! Enrollment is open for #laurenheimletteringclub through TOMORROW, Wednesday 12/30 at midnight and won’t open again until spring. If you hope to bring some creativity and self-cafe to your new year, please join us! Have you tried a new creative outlet in 2020? Tell me! 👇
Just wanted to say hi, hello and welcome if you ar Just wanted to say hi, hello and welcome if you are new here! 👋 I’m Lauren, and I own a lot of pens. 🖊 I use them for work, so that is my excuse for my pen addiction. A few months of the year, I package and sell ornaments that represent my hometown, KC! The other 10 months of the year I teach hand lettering workshops. I taught myself lettering about a decade ago, and found it was such a feel-good creative outlet for my anxiety. I started teaching workshops because I wanted to share that feeling with others. For the past five years, I have solely taught workshops in person in Kansas City, but come 2020 I started teaching online. And wouldn’t you know it, I LOVE it. In October we launched #laurenheimletteringclub. It is a creative community, where I teach a new hand lettered project each month! The goal is regular self-care and creativity, and the ladies in this group are incredible. Enrollment for #laurenheimletteringclub is open through this Wednesday 12/30 at midnight, and won’t open again until spring. We are kicking off January with my most favorite project, bullet journaling! 2020 has been a lot of things, some of them really painful. But getting to be creative regularly with a group of women that I genuinely adore has been more than I ever could have hoped, and I am so grateful. I hope you will join us, and create space for yourself and your creativity!

I can’t thank you enough for supporting my small I can’t thank you enough for supporting my small (tiny) business this holiday season! 🎄❤️ You all have truly showed up again for us this year. Every year I think that interest in our ornaments will die down, and every year you prove me wrong. You have made all the difference for our family with every order, every kind comment and email, and especially by sharing about our ornaments on social media! Our KC ornaments are sadly sold out! If there is enough interest (and time!), we hope to re-stock soon. If you are still interested in purchasing KC ornaments, please comment below! 🎄❤️ As of today, every ornament order has been fulfilled! (Oh except for about 550 ornaments for businesses that we are approaching next week. But we’ll cross that bridge when we get there... 🙃). If you have placed an ornament order, you should have received an email with tracking information or pick up details. Please check your inbox first (and spam folder!), and send me an email to let me know if you didn’t receive any information. We love you all, and I’m thankful for another year to continue to spread hand lettered holiday cheer! 🎄❤️ #heimsspreadcheer
