A woolly kind of love

Having a penchant for fabrics, Hollie Stone always has had a fascination with wool from a very young age especially after playing with her mum’s stash on the side of the couch. However, she didn’t think much about it until a few years ago she used ‘knitting’ to bridge...

  • VISIBILITY // For those familiar with the Persian poet, Rumi, you would know one of his most famous quotes: "What you seek is seeking you". I truly believe in this and this is only possible by putting yourself out there. If you are seeking to make a difference in the lives of others and improve basic human functionality within yourself and those around you, then you have to put your energy out there and actively seek for these opportunities that will help you fulfill your purpose. The Universe does have a funny way of giving you exactly what you wish for if you are willing to emit the right energy. My latest article published on @entrepreneur touches on the importance of being visbile and how you can't be your industry's best kept secret if you genuinely have the solutions to fill a gap in the market. Putting yourself out there has become a necessity to stand out from your competition but there's a structured and mindful way in doing so. Link in bio to read article and then share with me in the comments what are your thoughts on visibility! 💗💁🏻‍♀️🌿
  • SHOW // You can gain all the advice in the world, all the mentorship, tips and hacks but don’t forget that it’s your show and it is waiting to be run by YOU. Not anyone else, because sometimes we can subtly get sucked into what someone else is telling us or what worked for someone else. Every business just like every brain is different. Different levels of intelligence, different levels of needs and wants - no matter what it’s always your show and only you will intimately know what’s best for it xoxo 💗💁🏻‍♀️🌿
  • SELF // Some people have asked what’s different about the Tribe Empowerment Journal and why it’s not the same as the ones you can find in a stationary store. Well, for starters, this journal gives you focus and structure. It forces you to contemplate about yourself and that’s not a bad thing because we women contemplate on pretty much everything EXCEPT on self-care or self-space. With our days being so jam-packed, this journal gives you that space for contemplation and allows you to think about just you for that 5 minutes. The questions you have to respond to in the journal are intended for you to set your intentions, pick your attitude and go about your day with a mindful approach. For a scatterbrain like me, the journal gives me the spiritual guidance and structure I really crave sometimes. In honour of International Women’s Day, my recent article on the Sustenance of the Self featured in @naturalmummamag will give some insight into where I’m coming from in terms of self-care and self-preservation and how the true element of sustainability and creating impact starts from within. Link in bio to read article and check out @the___tribe to purchase a copy of the Tribe Empowerment journal! 🎥 @petitpixeldesign
  • GROWTH // Very often, we place limitations on ourselves and make up excuses for what we supposedly can’t do or perhaps what we don’t want to do. Nothing can grow from a place of comfort, where everything is overly familiar or repetitive. Security might give you stability but true growth comes from being flexible and open to new opportunities, even those that may seem risky xoxo 🌿💖🙋🏻‍♀️
  • MORTALITY // Part of my mission is to use Baby Peppers not only as a platform to showcase some of India’s finest artistry and slow fashion methods, but also to serve as an avenue for education about an issue that is at the heart of my brand: the health and welfare of children. While my passion sometimes challenges me to dig deep into the heart of difficult issues, real change is hard without engaging in tough conversations. Change is needed where things have been fundamentally wrong or unethical. For example, the 2018 UNICEF report on child mortality states that 5.4 million children aged under 5 died in 2017, with half of them dying in their first month of birth. In nearly all cases, the deaths were caused by preventable diseases or injuries and/or lack of treatment. While developing nations have far higher childhood mortality rates due to lack of medication, clean water, and sanitation, they are also plagued by issues that face economically advanced nations, such as carcinogenic chemicals in clothing, accessories, and skincare. This problem is compounded by the fact that children's immune systems are extremely sensitive to any pollutants in their surrounding, clothing, and toys. That's why, through Baby Peppers, I ensure that our textiles and dyes are safely derived. For instance, these beautiful kids are sitting on our Kalamkari blankets where the block printed fabrics and the wooden toys are dyed with organic vegetable dyes. Our products do not contain any materials that can negatively impact your child's health. As a #mompreneur, I want to be sure that any item that touches my children - and yours - will not harm them. While these small actions will not eliminate childhood mortality, we can all do our parts as smart businesses, consumers, and parents to ensure that we are protecting our children to the greatest extent possible xoxo 📷 @hawkswoodphotoanddesign
  • LEAP // After the Oscars rave last week, Nathan and I decided to watch the new spiderman animation - Into the Spiderverse which won Best Animation 2019. We hardly watch animation flicks as it is just a genre we don’t come across often but after watching this, we wish there were lots more like these. The film was absolutely mind blowing and we never thought an animation could bring so much emotion and energy to the plot. Big shout out to @phillordy and @chrizmillr for a brilliant screenplay and animation. There were so many concepts explored in the film, pretty rare for a superhero animation flick but it was astounding all round. In the film there is a line and scene that really moves the audience, when Peter Parker tells Miles that you will never know when you are ready and you just got to take that leap of faith. I think we have many situations like these in our life where we often mistakenly wait for the ‘right’ time or tell ourselves we are not ready. These moments are a form of self-sabotage but the only way you will ever find out what you were meant to do is to take that leap of faith. That solid moment that defines you is when you have faith in yourself and tell yourself let’s do this. Special thanks to @tezalord for bringing this movie to our attention! Have an awesome week everyone! 💗🌿💁🏻‍♀️
  • SUSTENANCE // Today I did a little celebratory dance because today marks the day of us being featured in 26 publications either through my own writings or through other brilliant writers. This 26th publication is extra special because it is not only in the amazing @naturalmummamag but it is also a special edition in honour of International Women’s Day and jam packed with an eclectic mix of articles - from gender bias, to female agricultural workers, to slavery, to brands threatened by Brexit. Every piece will leave you inspired to spur even the smallest of changes right from where you are standing. Big shout out to Holly Daffurn, the beautiful editor in chief who believed in me and generously gave me a 3 page spread to work on. The question of what sustainability means has been on my mind for a long time and after 3 years of running a business and tonnes of research, I think I finally have a hang of it and I have come to the conclusion that sustainability is first and foremost the sustenance of your ‘self’. Article on Page 17. Link in bio - have a read and share with me in the comments what you thought of it! 🌿💖📷 @littleredrobinphotography
  • PIECES // If you are feeling like your life is really fragmented right now, know that all the pieces will fall into place when the time is right. Every piece that has left you puzzled is part of the puzzle and one day, you will see the full image crystal clear and understand why the pieces had to be apart before they come together. Every piece that leaves you hanging, is a lesson in itself and will see you through your darkest times xoxo 💗🌿💁🏻‍♀️
  • EPIC // To say that the @ladieswholaunchexpo was epic is probably an understatement. It’s pretty rare these days that an event leaves you hanging for more and unanimously has everyone asking when is the next one especially in regional Victoria. The market hall was a sell out and the social media workshop was a sell out. The turn out had the organisers saying ‘holy shit’ on repeat mode - the vibe was so eclectic and positive, it was certainly one of a kind. Thank you to the creators @get_outta_town_ and @motherlover__ for putting on this stellar event and for taking care of every little detail plus going out of your way to ensure that everyone was well looked after. The hall was full of ethical small businesses with some of the most beautiful handicrafts - needless to say I went a little crazy with the shopping especially with @clacclacdesign earrings inspired by the 60s fashion scene. I felt like Audrey Hepburn with Anna trying to style me with all the earrings. The expo ended on a high note with our intimate panel discussion where I took centre stage with two other boss babes to dive deep into the world of business entrepreneurship. I was blown away by the inspiring journeys of Christina of @verve.super and Kim of @oakmagazineau - Christina brings years of international experience to the discussion having travelled to nearly every part of the world with her role in the United Nations and now having started Australia’s first super fund for women, and then Kim from her humble beginnings as a passionate journalist and now finally starting her own uplifting print magazine which has me waiting anxiously for the next issue! Each business owner I met on that day brings a solution to fill the gap in the market and they took on the risk so that other people and communities can benefit from their passions and delivery. We certainly need more events like these on a regional scale! 🌿💁🏻‍♀️💗
