Love, Rae

But first, introductions are in order. Hello, I’m Rae. The passion for crafts and an inspired life has given fuel to my little virtual space since 2009 under the blog moniker, Little Miss Pinay Crafter. From its beginnings as a way to document my handmade efforts, it has become a delightful trove of crafty projects, literary endeavors, and gastronomical adventures in my tiny kitchen in its eight-year run.

While I continued to live a creative life, the urge to tell stories about it, however, never really went away. I built Provenmille not only as an entrepreneurial pursuit but to also be a well of inspiring stories and creative living. With the intention of crafting a life with soul and success, this blog serves as an avenue to channel both the deeply meaningful and the whimsically exciting beliefs I hold dear as I strive to live a creatively purposeful and inspiringly significant life that is grounded on faith and grace.

I believe…

…in pursuing passions and following your curiosity.

…in living a simple but inspired and creative life.

…in eating wholesome and homemade meals.

…in the transformative power of prayers.

…in the pick-me-up potential of skirts, bows, and fresh flowers.

…in books and more books.

…in the beauty of handmade and the charm of imperfections.

…in the boldness of a red lip and the simple chicness of nude.

…in eating well and travelling once a year to a new place I’ve never been.

…in a well-executed cheese board complete with all its accoutrements (believe me, it goes better with movies than popcorn!).

…in God – His grace, His love, His forgiveness, His immense blessings.

…in the possibility of living a life I love when it is deeply rooted in faith and God’s favor.

…in the many things my hands can make…and the many things I can be.

It would indeed be lovely if one or two of these beliefs resonate with you. If you're one to join me on a creative journey, please feel free to explore my crafty adventures and inspirational endeavors.
