This week has been like Christmas 😍✨️🥰

Here is one of my orders for the week and to say I am excited is an understatement! I absolutely love using stones in my creations. Not only are they beautiful but the energy they carry further fills the heart.

I cannot recommend this company enough. All the pieces are beautiful, packaging was perfection (in the past I have received many broken pieces due to poor packaging) and I recieved this order in record time.

Some days progess looks "slow" but that's ok. I am rewriting slow to restful and mindful. I woke up feeling a bit overwhelmed and ungrounded. So today the only goals I gave myself were to drink as much peppermint tea as possible and make bone broth for soup. And anything more than that was a bonus.

These may seem like simple goals but for me I need mindful moments to slow me down. I have been known to be an all or nothing kind of gal but neither is sustainable. Finding balance is key. Understanding that allowing yourself a slow day is actually productive.

By having this mindful day I know it will help reset my nervous system and get me better grounded. And what does that mean for me?! I gives me the ability to show up better for my family, my business and everything in-between.

We live in such a hustle bustle era. So much of our perceived value is based on how much we get done in the shortest amount of time possible. But that does no real person any justice.

Some days need to be restful and mindful. It takes nothing away from your worth. We all deserve and need moments or days like this.

So many behind the scenes parts happen when you are building a business.

In between being a full time mom and part time lab tech I slowly but surely am getting organized. As well as researching and trying to source the best deals I can for supplies I haven't been able to acquire through local treasure hunting. All the while creating art. Doing it all at the same time feels a bit chaotic and messy but yet so much fun.

Rarely do people see or know all of the work it takes to get a business together. So many moving parts. I am learning firsthand that it doesn't have to look or feel "type A". For so long I have told myself I couldn't start or jump headfirst into my business unless the start-up was PERFECTION. That I had it all figured out beforehand. But I realized that was part of what was holding me back from my dreams.

I have had some major inspiration from the people around me in their leaps of faith lately. Whether it's starting a business, starting a new version of their life or continuing to show up in everyday situations even if there's been hardships and challenges.

This all has made me understand that even though this feels like my 100th start-up it proves that this is important to me. I keep showing up. I keep trying. But the major difference this time is I let go of that need of perfection. This time feels a bit haphazard and random BUT this has been the most successful start-up I have ever had.

Life and business alike isn't about perfection. It's about showing up and learning how to let go of it all. The worry, the fear and the uncertainty. And be open to whatever adventure comes your way.

A couple things that are incredibly important to me is supporting local when I can and repurposing old treasures.

I have been expanding my creativity and experimenting with new ideas! Which leads me to new places to gather materials.

This week I got to go visit Caring Hearts Thriftshop and Mud hut Gifts & Crafts and then check out Frederic Hardware Store for the first time. All three places are so inviting and the owners/staff so kind and helpful!

I have been to the thriftshop and craft shop a couple times now. This week when I walked through the door they remembered me from my last visit. Conversations started and connections were made. This is the magical piece about shopping small business.

They remember who you are and how you made them feel the last time you walked through their door. In one of the conversations I had I learned that after my last shopping visit I had inspired her to get creative again and that she enjoys whenever I come to shop to hear about what crafty thing I am trying out next.

As an introvert by nature this was an amazing reminder that you may never know when your kindness and willingness to share a piece of you will inspire others.

Today I was lost for words. Tears filled my eyes as I checked on my retail shelf at The Healing Room.

All of my candles were sold as well as a couple other of my creations. When I re-started this adventure I did not even begin to imagine it would have taken off and been received so well.

And that was not all... I was left with a sweet hand written thank you on a customer's business card with the request for a custom candle specifically made for her. She felt the magic and love I infused into everything I made. She saw the true beauty in what I had to offer and wants a special piece to call her own.

One of my favorite quotes of all times and one I have used as a guiding light for nearly 20 years is by Elsie de Wolfe - "I'm going to make everything around me beautiful—that will be my life".

And now my beautiful things are traveling beyond my own home and into the homes of others. What greater gift can an artist receive?

To say my heart is full is an understatement.

Some days being a small business owner means you spend your time writing out price tags...

It may not be all glamorous and as fun as creating magic but it is necessary.

This morning I did something I have been ABSOLUTELY TERRIFIED to do but I DID IT! Literally have pushed it off for years...

OakenDoe Studio has taken the next steps into becoming a "real" business. I have applied and registered to be a LLC.

This may seem like a small step but for me it was scary. It is not just taking a leap of faith and going for it. For me this involves investing the family's resources to make this dream a reality. The "what if I fail" has sat heavy on my shoulders but now the "what if I succeed" sits even heavier.

Unexpected opportunities for OakenDoe Studio's growth has been knocking on the door and loudly. With that the amount of support I have been given it has made it impossible for me to not finally push that door wide open.

I cannot wait to continue in sharing this journey with you all ✨️

More excited news and updates to come! Stay tuned!
