Holiday Spirit & New Beginnings
Embracing the Holiday Spirit: New Beginnings with Valeria and Guru Candles
The holiday season is here—a time for warmth, connection, and inspiration. At Xpress Yourself Boutique, we’re not just celebrating traditions this year; we’re celebrating new beginnings. We’re thrilled to introduce two incredible artisans whose creations have added something truly special to our boutique: Valeria and Guru Candles.
The Spark of Inspiration
As Mark and I (Janelle) navigated our days in the motorhome and sailboat, we found ourselves drawn to creators who bring heart and passion into their work. The magic of the holiday season brought Valeria and Guru Candles into our world—and we couldn’t resist sharing their talents with you.
Meet Valeria: Handcrafted Elegance
At just 14 years old, Valeria has already honed her talent in Charquira, a traditional beadwork art form that weaves vibrant patterns into intricate, story-filled designs. Her pieces are a stunning blend of cultural heritage and youthful creativity, making each one truly unique.
When I first met Valeria, I was immediately struck by her passion and the pride she takes in her craft. Every bead she strings reflects not just her skill but her story—a celebration of resilience, tradition, and individuality.
Now part of our boutique family, Valeria’s handcrafted charquira jewelry is here to bring a meaningful, personal touch to your holiday season—and far beyond. Let her artistry inspire you as much as it has inspired us.
Introducing Guru Candles: Warmth with Intention
There’s nothing quite like the soft glow of a candle to set the mood for the holidays. Guru Candles takes this experience to the next level with artisanal candles crafted from natural ingredients and infused with love.
Each candle is thoughtfully designed to evoke comfort, joy, and mindfulness. Whether you’re creating a cozy atmosphere at home or looking for the perfect gift, Guru Candles add more than light—they add meaning. Their commitment to quality and care made it an easy decision to welcome them into the Xpress Yourself Boutique family.
Celebrate the Season with Us
Partnering with Valeria and Guru Candles is about more than adding products to our boutique—it’s about celebrating the connections and creativity that inspire us to keep growing.
