A few quiet things for the days ahead

As we approach Palm Sunday and the beginning of Holy Week, I wanted to share a few small things from the studio that may be helpful in the days ahead.

Easter Digital Downloads
If you’re looking for simple creative resources for the season, our Easter digital downloads are easy to use at home, in classrooms, or within church communities. They include activities designed to encourage reflection and conversation around the Easter story and include our Easter Memory Verse Cards.

A Note for Holy Week
The studio will remain open next week, but our social media will be quiet during Holy Week. It’s a small practice of stepping back from the noise so we can enter the week with a little more attentiveness.

Using Public Domain Art for Easter
If you enjoy incorporating art into worship, teaching, or personal reflection, I recently wrote a Substack post about beautiful public domain artwork that can be used freely during the Easter season. It’s a wonderful way to bring historic visual storytelling into modern spaces.

How to fold a cross out of a palm is a digital PDF download from Carrot Top Studio.

A Gentle Invitation for the Week Ahead
Holy Week moves quickly if we let it. Palm branches wave, the table is set, the cross appears, and suddenly Easter morning arrives. One simple practice is to choose just one small way to slow the week down, lighting a candle, taking a few quiet minutes each evening, or placing a meaningful object where you’ll see it each day. Small pauses help us notice the sacred story rather than rushing past it.

With hope for the week ahead,
