The Pieces That Make Us: The Story of Terrazzo

Not all wounds are visible, and not all stories are told out loud. But they are there—woven into who we are, shaping us in ways the world may never see.

Every Frogmented Feelings frog carries something special inside—small, mismatched terrazzo pieces, each one representing trauma, experiences, and the moments that shape us. Some terrazzo is visible on the outside, standing out against the frog’s color, a reminder of the struggles that are seen. Other terrazzo is hidden deep within, just like the pain and resilience that exist beneath the surface. Some frogs have just a few specks, while others are filled with them—because trauma looks different for everyone.

And if you look closely, you may even find your own story within your frog. A single terrazzo piece, a different color than the rest, waiting to be noticed. A reminder that your past, no matter how mismatched or unexpected, is part of what makes you beautifully whole.

We don’t always get to choose the things that shape us, but we do get to decide what we carry forward. Let your frog be a symbol of healing, a grounding presence in the moments when the weight of the world feels too heavy. Your experiences matter. Your story matters. And just like your frog, every piece of you belongs.
