Hi everyone, Bonnie here. It’s World Bipolar Day this weekend, so first, I want to say —It is OK if you aren’t OK. Second, mental illness is REAL. If you’re fairly new to Archer & Olive, you may not know that my own mental health is the reason I started Archer & Olive. In college, I was diagnosed with Bipolar and Anxiety disorders. Journaling and art were a tremendous help in my journey and STILL ARE. I take medication and meet with a therapist twice a month, but journaling and art have become just as vital to completing my treatment puzzle. I recognize my privilege. I’m SO fortunate that my family supported me, that I had health insurance, and the income to afford therapy. These are huge hurdles for SO MANY others in the world.⁠ ⁠ We want to do our little bit to help change that.⁠ ⁠ If you struggle with mental health issues and it is difficult for you to be able to afford a journal or creativity tools, then we want to give it to you for FREE, because I believe everyone should have access to these tools that have helped me SO MUCH. To make it easy to reach out, just fill out the form linked in our bio, and we’re going to send creativity tools to as many people as we possibly can.⁠ ⁠ If you are looking for a way to support others, we’ve created a way for you to also donate, see the blog for more info.⁠ ⁠ Next, we’ll be sharing some content through the week on the blog and on Instagram, including videos, free printables, a day in the life and something extra special tomorrow. You are not alone in your struggles and it CAN get better.⁠ ⁠ [Image description: For World Bipolar Day we are hosting Creative Care Week March 28 - March 30]⁠ ⁠ #mentalhealthawareness #worldbipolarday #mentalhealthmatters #wellbeing #mentalwellness #mentalwellbeing #mentalhealthadvocate

Have you tried one of our UNBOUND eCourses? Christine has been sharing her amazing work on our community group, and we just had to share it with you! Using techniques from the 12 Days of Creativity eCourse, Christine used her collection of washi to "Springify" the tutorials and get creative in her journal this past week. And in her words, it "justified" the many years of collecting washi 🤣 Do you relate?⁠ ⁠ Our digital eCourses provide personable in-depth tutorials and detailed instructions with our guide @lorigeorge_art . Pick from the UNBOUND Color Course, 12 Days of Creativity or both! They will help take the barriers out of creating, teach you new skills and simply get you creating for your wellness! 🌱🎨⁠ Do you need some help just getting started?⁠ ⁠ Credit: Christine McMillan⁠ ⁠ [Image description: completed projects from a community member of some of the 12 Days of Creativity tutorials]⁠ ⁠ #archerandolive #archerandolivecommunity #creativewellness #creativewellbeing #unboundbyarcherandolive #crafttutorial #arttutorial #artbeginner #craftbeginner #artformentalhealth #springcrafts #12daysofcreativity #watercolorpainting #abstractart #springart #springcraftideas #creative #painting #washitape #washitapeart
