Hello, I’m Diane Sison, the heart and hands behind Magic Wand Wonders. For many years, I was a teacher, helping children discover the joy of learning and creativity. I had planned to teach for several more years, but in 2023 life took an unexpected turn. I had to retire early due to long COVID and other health challenges. Through it all, I was blessed with the love and support of my amazing husband, family, friends, and, of course, my two dogs and cat—who gave me strength and comfort during the hardest days.
Although this chapter was difficult, it also opened the door to something new. As I began to feel stronger, I poured my time and energy into the passions that had always lit up my heart—writing whimsical children’s books and creating one-of-a-kind treasures. From sparkling, reimagined décor pieces to stories that inspire kindness and courage, I discovered joy again in turning the ordinary into the extraordinary. Living with chronic illness has taught me a valuable lesson: to make the most of every single day, especially the ones where I feel well enough to create.
Magic Wand Wonders is where my joy for life and my love of creativity come together: a place where stories sparkle, everyday objects get a magical makeover, and imagination knows no bounds. My hope is that through my children's books, digital creations, whimsical objects, and holiday decorating, you’ll be reminded that magic is all around us—sometimes you just need to wave your own “wand” to see it.
