What you put on can make you feel confident and empowered, and have a positive impact. And when you wear something that makes you feel good, you exude an energy that is contagious!

When you feel confident in your choices you can take on the world with enthusiasm and optimism. It's not just about looking good, it's about feeling good in the pieces you purchase.

Here at Palettes and Petals, we’re all about feeling good in the choices you make, and approaching the world with optimism despite how heavy it often feels. 🧡

Go on, take on the world, pal!

Handmade with a purpose

Over 3k has been donated to ALS research thanks to your support!

Donations have been made to both I Am ALS and The ALS Therapy Development Institute.

The mission of this small business is not to make a huge profit- it’s to help create awareness for the disease that directly affected me, and help fund research for the amazing ALS community that continues to fight.
