Jamie - Heart Shaped Box

❤️ Jamie – Heart Shaped Box

In a quiet workshop, a gift was born from deep love and hope—crafted not just from wood, but from the unwavering strength of a family’s heart.

Jamie is my niece, and she had just received life-changing news: a cancer diagnosis that cast a shadow over her world. But even in the face of uncertainty, her courage did not waver. Known for her spirit, resilience, and warmth, Jamie lights up every room she enters. And when life tries to dim that light, those who love her are determined to remind her just how brightly she still shines.

To honor her strength, I crafted a heart-shaped box from purpleheart wood—a vibrant, durable material known for its deep hue and lasting beauty. It was chosen not just for its appearance, but for what it symbolizes: perseverance, grace, and inner strength.

On the front, Jamie’s name curves above a blooming sunflower—a symbol of warmth, hope, and unwavering faith, always turning toward the light.

On the back, a message engraved to carry her through:

“You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and loved more than you know.” — A.A. Milne

This heart holds a piece of mine— stay strong, you are never alone. Love, Uncle Tim May 2025

This small, handcrafted gift is more than a box. It’s a symbol of courage, a touchstone of love, and a reminder that her strength—and the bond we share—is deeper and more enduring than she ever imagined.

Material: Purpleheart wood — selected for its deep hue, lasting beauty, and symbolic strength.
