One whole year of Straps by CRASH.
This past year has meant more to me than I can even put into words. What started as an idea became something real - something built with my own hands, my own heart, and so much of myself poured into every single piece.
And this year didn’t happen under easy circumstances. In the middle of building Straps by CRASH, life threw me one hell of a challenge with my broken leg. Being slowed down, hurting, and forced to navigate so much physically and emotionally changed me in ways I’m still processing. But even through that, this little brand kept giving me something to hold onto. Something creative. Something meaningful. Something that was mine.
Straps by CRASH became more than just making straps. It became an outlet. A focus. A piece of my healing. A reminder that even when I felt broken, I was still capable of creating something strong, bold, and beautiful.
This year held so many emotions behind the scenes - passion, doubt, frustration, pride, pain, gratitude, and determination. There were moments I questioned myself and moments I felt overwhelmed, but I kept going. And somehow, through all of it, Straps by CRASH made it to one whole year.
That means everything to me.
To everyone who supported me, shopped with me, shared my work, hyped me up, and believed in me through all of it - thank you. Your support has carried me more than you probably realize.
Looking back, this first year wasn’t just about building a brand. It was about surviving hard things, finding strength in creativity, and proving to myself that even through pain, I could still create something worth being proud of.
One year later, I’m still here. Still healing. Still creating. Still dreaming.
And that means more than I can say.
One WHOLE YEAR of Straps by CRASH.
Built through passion, pain, healing, and heart.
And this is only the beginning…
