So, I don’t know about you all but I personally need a lot of reminders throughout my day on how to keep my mind in a positive space. We all know there are too many ways and opportunities available in our society to get caught up in negativity. Do you feel me at all or is it just me?
I am a strong believer in positive messages and I’m constantly pondering ways in which I can bring some light, joy and happiness wherever I am. Mind you I am also an introvert so this is turning out to be quite a task. Pray for me, I’m working on it lol.
Back track to earlier this year on International Women’s Day an opportunity presented itself. I posted a design on the Simply Sleek Designs Instagram page that got a lot of attention. I received DMs, comments and text messages asking about merchandise for this design. I contemplated on what type of merchandise to create and decided on t-shirts after taking a poll on Instagram.
My aim with these T-shirts is to spread motivation, to inspire and to pass on a message that can brighten someone’s day. As some of you already know, I have a line of inspirational/motivational prints available in my Etsy store (coming soon to this site under the shop tab).
The way I see it, even if you don’t speak, having a shirt on with a short message that someone can read and feel uplifted, or a print in your space that can inspire you or others who may encounter it, is a small but powerful way to bring about change. We ask why things happen quite often or why no-one is doing anything about things. The real question is why not you? This might seem insignificant or even too small but the saying does go “little drops of water make a might ocean”. Here is to hoping reading a tee or a print brings even a slight uplift, smile or inspiration to yours or someone else’s day.
I will be adding on designs and other merchandise as time goes. But, for now, check out the 2 current options available below. Be sure to check back to see what’s new.
A huge thank you to all the people who reached out asking about merchandise and to all those who have already grabbed your merchandise. I hope you love it as much as I do! For everyone else, grab yours on Etsy today!

Hi Janet!
I absolutely enjoyed reading this post. As you stated, it’s very easy to let negativity influence our joy so it’s important to cultivate positivity to stay in good spirits. Thank you for the reminder. Also, the new page looks amazing! I’m going to go order my T-shirt now…😊
