If you’ve been following along, you know we’re not your average digital design studio. We’re a tight-knit family of makers—Laurie, DeDe, Chelsey, and Samantha—each with our own chaos, creativity, and calling. And this past month? Let’s just say we’ve been in full creation mode.
So here’s a peek behind the curtain at what we’ve been crafting, launching, and dreaming up:
🎨 From Passion Projects to Powerful Printables
We’ve poured our hearts into new digital tools that we actually use, designed to help you live more intentionally and creatively.
- Gratitude & Grace Mini Journal – A free guided journal filled with soulful prompts, gentle affirmations, and meaningful reflection to help you slow down and soak up the beauty around you.
- Get ’Er Done! Printable To-Do List – For makers who need a no-fluff, get-it-done system that’s simple, motivating, and beautiful enough to want on your desk.
- Budget Like a Boss (Even If You Hate Numbers) – Laurie’s personal journey with money inspired this tool. It’s the anti-overwhelm budgeting workbook for creatives who’ve avoided spreadsheets like the plague.
📚 Empowering Homeschoolers, Unschoolers & Lifelong Learners
As homeschool veterans ourselves, we know the power of raising kids through real-life learning. That’s why we’re building tools that help families do just that:
- The Texas Homeschool Quick Start Guide – Our no-nonsense freebie that breaks down legal requirements and options for getting started in the Lone Star State.
- The Homestead ABCs + Handwriting Sheets – A children’s book and printable pack introducing homesteading vocabulary and values through fun, educational illustrations and writing practice.
- Life Skills by Age Checklist – A practical PDF showing parents how to teach real-world skills naturally; no lectures, just life.
💪 Mental Wellness Meets Tactical Design
We’re all about healing and human wholeness here. That’s why we’re creating wellness tools that don’t feel clinical but instead feel empowering:
- A Tactical Reset Guide: Mental Clarity for Men Who Don’t Back Down – A bold, straightforward reset workbook made specifically for men, packed with stress tools, resilience trackers, and grounding techniques. Launching Father’s Day weekend.
- Coloring Through Chaos – An adult coloring and mindfulness book to help reset your nervous system through art, reflection, and radical self-compassion.
🌽 Rebuilding the Village, One Farm Stand at a Time
Chelsey’s launching something huge—TradeRoots, a community-powered farm stand locator app built with a whole lot of intention. This is about connecting neighbors, reviving local trade, and saying no to billion-dollar middlemen. More details coming soon.
📰 Our First Newsletter (and Why It Matters)
On June 1st, we’re dropping our very first monthly newsletter to celebrate one month since our official launch. Expect:
- VIP access to our 8 recent freebies

- A special tribute to The Men Behind the Makers

🌟 Why We Do This
We’re not just making digital products. We’re creating tools that support real life—the messy, meaningful kind. Our mission is simple:
Design tools that empower people, especially women and families, to live intentionally, stay organized, and create space for what truly matters.
So if you’ve downloaded one of our freebies, shared a post, or just cheered us on quietly from the sidelines, thank you. You’re part of this too.
Let’s keep making magic together.
With heart,
The Mothers & Makers Team
