After the April Anticipation announcement, much more prayer, plenty of planning, and a whole lot of perseverance, it’s such a blessing to “officially” open the virtual doors to the Finley River Collection. This isn’t just a shop; it’s my place of peace and passion–to imagine, create, and design. Hopefully, to bring a little more “flow” into your daily lives.
Why did I name this the Finley River Collection?

To celebrate the grand opening of the Finley River Collection, I’m pausing to remember the waters that raised me. This specific spot, Hawkins’ Ford Bridge, isn’t just a location on a map; it is a sanctuary where my love for the outdoors first took root. I’m re-sharing this post from six years ago because it’s the heartbeat behind every purposeful piece I create today.
From the very beginning, I wanted this collection to be more than just merchandise. I wanted to create Purposeful Pieces that act as gentle reminders of God’s grace, reminders of rare (diseases & humans!), and the love of the Great Outdoors!
Whether you are browsing our:
- Terrific Totes (perfect for carrying your “Nana Things” or “Mom Things”),
- Sturdy Stickers (shoutout to my “Zebra Strong” warriors!),
- Faith-Filled Fashion & Cozy Clothing that feels like a warm hug,
…every item is an invitation to walk—and flow—by faith. You can explore every single piece right here at the Finley River Collection Store.

Policies and Peace of Mind
I know that “fine print” can sometimes feel cold and clinical, but I wanted ours to feel like a compassionate conversation. I’ve just finished polishing our Refund and Returns Policy. Because our items are custom-printed just for you, we handle things a little differently, but always with the goal of making sure your experience is as smooth as a calm current.
A Season of Strength
Launching this store in the same week I’m planning new cancer treatments and not feeling my floating self, my faith still flourishes. This will be a season of strength because I’m trusting the One who walks on water. Ripples are ahead. I’m sure there are low waters, too. At times, I’ll probably turn the canoe over (remember my bio?). No matter what, the Savior who is indwelling inside of me will keep me river ready! It is well with my soul, friends!
Is your faith flowing? Are you River Ready?
Please, come on in, stay a while, sit by the river and see what speaks to you. May your faith be firm, your joy be full, and your life flow like a river today!
Friends & family, your support—whether through a purchase, a prayer, or a simple post share & just being HERE—means more to me than words can weave together.
“When peace like a river attendeth my way, when sorrow like sea billows roll, Whatever my lot thou hast taught me to say, It is well, it is well with my soul.”
With peace, love, and profound gratitude,
Karla & Finley 💚🙏🏻
Keep the faith 💚
