Start the Year With Self‑Love: Your First Look at Our Access to Love Drop
A new year isn’t just a fresh start.
It’s a chance to begin with intention, with compassion, and — maybe for the first time in a long time — with yourself at the center.
Here at The Ability Company, we’re stepping into 2026 with a message we believe everyone deserves to hear: Love is for all. And access to love should never be limited.
That’s why we’re thrilled to open the year with our first major launch of 2026: Access to Love Drop — a beautiful, meaningful, inclusive collection designed to help you celebrate love in all its forms.
And this year, we’ve created something special: not baskets, but curated Love Bags — intentionally designed with inclusivity, sensory needs, comfort, education, and joy in mind. We chose bags instead of baskets because they’re more environmentally friendly and far more practical. Everyone can reuse a good bag, and we loved the idea of giving something that supports sustainability while also being truly useful.
Here’s your first look.
Two New Designs for 2026
Our Access to Love Drop includes two original designs, available on t-shirts and long-sleeves, sold separately all the way until February 28. These are perfect valentine gifts for adults and children.

Why This Launch Matters
This is our first blog and first product launch of 2026 — and it’s more than merchandise. It’s our reminder that love should be accessible. That self love is foundational. That support, celebration, and belonging belong to everyone.
Every design, every item, every jar, and every word has been chosen with care, disability informed perspective, sensory awareness, and lived experience at the center.
February is Access to Love Month — but we’re starting early, because:
Love doesn’t wait.
Self love can’t wait.
And connection shouldn’t wait.
Start Your Year Love
Whether you choose the Self Love, the Made With Love, or the Love Bug Collection, each one is an invitation:
To pause.
To breathe.
To make.
To anchor.
To enjoy.
To reflect.
To start with LOVE
This drop is a warm welcome to a year that starts with kindness and LOVE.
