“I have used positive messaging to allow the recipient to feel uplifted and empowered every time they pick up the cup, and remember to feel love or be loved.

“Valentine’s Day in 2023 means a whole host of emotions - to love yourself, love those around you, take time for those that mean the most and be accepting.”
