Hi, my name is Antonija, and I’m a single mom of two amazing children. For the past five years, I’ve been raising them on my own after surviving domestic violence. Life hasn’t been easy, but through every challenge, I’ve found strength in creativity, love for my kids, and deep spiritual healing.

I currently work as a waitress, but the hours are long, the pay is low, and it’s hard to balance everything—especially here in the part of Croatia where I live. My dream for years has been to start my own crocheting business, where I can finally do something that feeds my soul, supports my children, and makes a meaningful impact on others.

I’m also a shamanic practitioner, and everything I create is infused with intention, love, and spiritual energy. My handmade items aren’t just decorative—they’re made to support people on their healing and spiritual journeys.

With your support, I want to start creating and selling:

Unique crocheted bags and purses

Healing mandalas—not just for wall decoration, but to aid in energy work and emotional balance

Spiritual and classical, boho jewelry, keychains, and small pouches

Practical and pretty items like hair scrunchies

And eventually, even offer custom energy-infused pieces

I’m raising 1100e to help cover:

Materials like yarn, lining fabric, beads, and high-quality tools, genuine crystals and crystal beads for my healing wall mandalas.

Branding, packaging, and photography

An online shop to reach people outside my small community

Marketing and promotion

A cushion so I can reduce my hours as a waitress and dedicate time to building this dream

Help with the bills for the first month od starting the business so i can reduce my waiting hours and fully commit to crocheting.

Rewards:

10€: A heartfelt thank-you message and a digital blessing

25€: A handmade keychain or hair scrunchie with good energy

50€: Your choice of spiritual jewelry or a small pouch

100€+: A custom healing item (any purpose mandala for your need, bag, or spiritual gift) made just for you

Every donation, big or small, helps me move toward a life of freedom, creativity, and purpose. You’re not just supporting a small business—you’re helping a mom rebuild her life and bring healing beauty into the world.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
