Winter Renewal: A SilverSilk & Danielle Wickes Collaboration


Danielle and I designed Winter Renewal as a quiet reset — a breath of fresh air for your creativity. Inspired by snow-covered branches, golden light, and the slow beauty of new growth beneath winter’s surface, this theme is about clearing space and making room for what’s next. We were drawn to soft whites, warm topaz, and muted golds — like the shimmer of witch hazel blooming through the frost. It’s a gentle reminder that even in stillness, something beautiful is already beginning.

This collaboration combines Danielle’s Seed Bead Project Box and my SilverSilk Bundle, bringing together texture, color, and creativity in one inspiring collection.

This bundle is sold out. You can grab one of our other bundles from our Design Kits & Tools.
