About Teddy Ann aka @Hippie.Craft.Fairy

Hello there! I'm Teddy Ann, the enthusiastic stationery addict on Instagram at @Hippie.Craft.Fairy.

The pandemic prompted me to delve into the world of creative journaling and crafting unique paper snail mail, providing a delightful outlet while working from the comfort of home. This journey not only became a personal creative haven but also connected me with a wonderful online community of kindred spirits.

Sending mail, to me, is like dispatching little surprise packages of joy across the globe! While the realms of journaling, planning, and scrapbooking within the online community have become my canvas for expressing and sharing creativity on a global scale. Witnessing the power of Instagram in fostering a worldwide community of creatives has been truly inspiring.

I revel in creating and sharing items that bring joy and ignite the creative spark in others. @Hippie.Craft.Fairy is a virtual space where I curate and share all things I love, meticulously crafted by hand or through supporting small businesses.

Originally from San Francisco, I recently planted roots in Columbus, Ohio. By day, I'm immersed in the world of non-profit fundraising event planning for the arts. My passion for travel and cultural exploration, coupled with a love for diverse cuisines, shapes my worldview. Yet, at the core of my being, I am an avid enthusiast of arts and crafts, illustration, and all things stationery.

I firmly believe that sending cards and postcards is a unique way to engage with art from around the world on an intimate scale. While creative journaling, in my view, serves as a therapeutic journey, page by page, calming and healing the soul. Meanwhile, creative planning acts as the compass guiding the creative idea factory in the right direction. Through my snail mail adventures, I actively support artists and small businesses, consistently sharing my admiration for the makers and artists I cherish.

Thank you for taking the time to read about my crafty adventures!

Warmly
