Just rambles from a really tired mom/maker of Mended/friend
Itās been a long year of a month and I just wanted to make something Iām proud of. Itās come with pain, hardships, and more disappointment than I have room to fit here but boy has it shown me what matters most and how resilient we can be.
Iām more than the metal I mend, Iām a mom and a really good friend. I love with all Iāve got and Iām going to try to find something good in bad situations, or find something to laugh about at least. I worry about my neighbors, I support any small business with a good heart when I can and when Iām needed..
im all in!
But, I wonāt survive in the new space without support. I wonāt be able to pay my bills, make new things or see the dreams Iāve been building for the community come true without support.
Support comes in so many forms.. you can share something you like Iāve made, you can show your favorite bracelet I made to your friend, you can book an appointment, host a party, buy a gift card or a book a class for you and a pal to come make something fun!
Iāve had to pivot more than Iāve had planned this first month in the new business with sick kiddos and schedule changes and itās put a fear in me thatās ready to gobble me up whole. My family could use some extra help and I believe it will all work out but itās hard to see in the dark. If you shine a little light my way, Iāll make sure it shines right back.
Thanks for comin to my Kristin talk, love yall š
