I have thought a lot about how I was going to make this post. A post that I have considered making many times before, but I could never actually see myself going through with. A post that truly breaks my heart and one I did not want to have to make. A post that you may have seen coming if you seen my last post.
I am creeping up on 8 years doing this little business that I started on a whim. It makes me sad that I won’t be continuing on to make year 9.
I have a lot of emotions, trust me, just ask my husband. 🙃 I have cried, been pi**ed, laughed, prayed, and cried some more. I worked my ass off to create this business and just like that, it’s going to be gone.
This is not a decision I have taken lightly, but the truth of the matter is, between increased prices in my supplies and inflation causing low sales, it just does not make sense anymore.
During my last crying session, I told my husband how it just feels like I have failed. He reminded me how I have gotten to spend the last 8 years doing something I REALLY LOVE and I have gotten to do it all while staying at home to raise my babies. That doesn’t sound like a fail at all.. and I kinda think he is right.
I feel incredibly lucky to have gotten to create as long as I have. I do appreciate each and every one of you that have allowed me to do what I love for so long.
I am not 100% sure on what is next. I have an idea but I am not ready to share that just yet. I will be keeping this page up for now. I will not be taking on any more custom orders. I will possibly post something here or there until the laser is sold.
And one last thing, if you want to help keep your favorite small businesses open, don’t forget about them. Share a post, recommend them, like a status. Even if you can’t order, all those other little things that are free… they really do help.
So on that note, much love to all of the best customers a girl could ask for.
It’s been a hell of a ride! ✌🏻🫶🏻
