I’m may be a professor but I’m no profesh when it comes to parenting… although this little mental hack feels like a mindset shift win 🙌🏼

It’s basically a whole new front porch!

We went from boring to expensive-looking with $50 worth of paint and a few hours of time. So satisfying to see the hard work pay off

Creating this space has given me an outlet this summer that I desperately needed in my life. As a nurse educator, I am lucky enough to be off during summer break. That means home with the kids, the pressure of maximizing productivity during this 3-month break, and finding a balance that feels like not too much but not too little.

It’s been fun to take this hobby and turn it into a profit. I tend to do that— feel like I “ruin” the joy of a hobby by creating this need to turn it into a job. But this has felt like the opposite of a ruined hobby. It’s given me a reason to do what I enjoy — hunt down vintage and antique treasures and go thrifting — while having a place to put the items, create a fun space, bring my vision to life, and squeal with every fun find I dig up out of the dusty corner of someone’s house during an estate sale.

From what I hear, the “J” months are the slowest in the antique booth world. Of course, my first two months have been June and July 🤣 but it’s gone well and I don’t plan on closing down this booth anytime soon.

I’ll have to go back to regularly scheduled programming of working full time in less than a month, but that’s not going to stop me from continuing this new little creative corner in my life. In fact, I may need it this fall semester more than ever ♥️

A little for my booth and a little for me, obviously

I fear I have unlocked the “oh I absolutely CAN just actually do the project” part of my brain

The fear of imperfection and overwhelm have kept me from doing the things for far too long. I’m determined to put an end to that nonsense. Stay tuned for this front door makeover!
