About Us

Hi, I’m Alycia Rae—also known as Skelle.
I’m the founder, heart, and hands behind Artfelt Gifts, and also the visionary behind Terra Ema. I’m a singer, songwriter, jewelry maker, artist, dreamer, and devoted mother of four. Born and raised in Thunder Bay, I’ve grown alongside this community—blending the wild magic of country roots with the vibrant creativity of city life.

Artfelt Gifts was born from my love of creating, my passion for community, and my desire to share beauty with intention.
After working in a spiritual boutique, I discovered how deeply I cherished not just curating sacred items, but making them—infused with meaning, energy, and purpose. I didn’t want to just buy and sell—I wanted to create, to bless, and to offer truly heartfelt, artfelt pieces to the world. It all began with a single crystal—labradorite—that sparked a passion I couldn’t ignore. From selling locally to creating one-of-a-kind treasures, the journey has been organic, magical, and aligned with my soul.

Everything here is made or chosen with love, purpose, and connection in mind.
I craft unique jewelry, charms, spiritual tools, personalized gift sets, clothing, and more—all intuitively inspired. I believe every piece is meant for someone out there. Nothing is created simply to sell—each item is intended to find its right home, and to bring joy, healing, and a sense of wonder to the person who receives it.

At the heart of everything we do is love.
Artfelt Gifts is rooted in values of curiosity, trust, joy, and meaningful connection. As a neurodivergent woman, single mother, and multi-passionate artist, I bring my full, authentic self to every creation—and invite you to bring your full self here, too.

You are welcome here, just as you are.
Whether you’re drawn to crystals, art, local handmade goods, or just seeking something that “feels right,” this is a space to explore your intuition, delight your senses, and connect with something a little more magical.

My vision is to grow Artfelt Gifts into a warm, physical storefront—
a brick-and-mortar space filled with community, creation stations, spiritual events, and open-hearted experiences. We’re growing with love, learning from each customer, and building something meant to last—not just as a store, but as a feeling.

Thank you for being here. Thank you for supporting small, soulful dreams. You are a part of this story now.

With love,
Alycia Rae (Skelle)
