As the year is coming to a close, I’d like to take a minute to reflect on the 2024 season. 🙏🏼

I want to say a HUGE thank you to all of our clients and supporters this year. Doing business with each of you is always so rewarding and means the WORLD to me! 😇

I always take time at the end of the year to reflect on the good, the bad and the ugly of the summer season. Looking into 2025 I have SO many exciting ideas and growth planned to better serve all of you!

Hoping that next year is filled with more

you know what this is 🥀✨🥰

Girl, you’re not sad… you just need a ✨🧺

If you know me.. you know I work A LOT, but it helps when you love what you do 🥰 I sometimes stand back in awe at how I took nothing & made something for me and my family. This may not be my ONLY gig, but it is FULL time. Being a business owner takes your heart & soul, and turns it into a way to better your life! The burnout is sometimes real 🫠. The nights, weekends and early mornings are at times tiring, but all worth it for the results! 🤩 This venture has turned into more than I could’ve ever hoped for & I am always surprised at the next door that opens for me because I believed in myself. Moral of the story is… take that chance! Shoot your shot at your dream and see where it takes you. No matter the hours, the struggle, the doubt - you won’t regret it 🫶🏻
