I have been keeping a secret from all of you. But now that it’s spring, and the flowers are blooming, and love is in the air, and it’s also MY BLOGIVERSARY… I thought it would be perfect time to announce it. I’m way too excited to keep it quiet!
It’s no secret that I love making beautiful things. I love seeing my hard work materialize, and I love knowing that my own two hands are what made it happen. And despite the fact that I make it sound like I’m swamped with work, school, and remodeling this house, I’ve been spending what extra time I have to follow another passion. A piece was missing, and I couldn’t ignore it any longer. So, I took out a loan, filled out some paperwork, consulted with some of my entrepreneur professors, and as of the end of this month, I’m starting a new life as a small business owner*:
I’m a girly-girl who has always been obsessed with weddings, and I’ve decided I simply can’t hide it any longer. As a perfectionist and hyper-organized individual, I know I’m perfect for the job. Who wouldn’t want to work with lovely, stressed-out brides-to-be and make their special day absolutely perfect? If I were getting married, I would totally pick me for help.
Over the next few months, you’ll see a new series popping up on this blog about my new venture. I can’t promise it will be a regular posting (I’m starting my own biz after all, and that sucks up a lot of time), but I will be too excited to share with all of you to keep things under wraps. I’ll basically be a wedding planner by day, DIYer by night.
I’m so excited!
*Yes, this is an April Fool’s joke (image is from an actual consulting business, here). I’m also playing a few pranks today on Instagram (just because it’s really easy to do on that platform). But it really is my blogiversary – I’ve now been telling you weird stories about this house for three years. Hopefully, I can keep telling you more (or perhaps about another house at some point) for another three.
I was reading this post so confused… thinking “but there’s no power tools in wedding planning… maybe there will be now….” hahaha
Could’ve fooled me, that sounded sincere!
I totally fell for it. Partially because my name is also Sarah, and I think that would be a totally awesome job to have. (I totally LOVE weddings!) But by the end I was like, “this really doesn’t seem like something she would do….” GOT ME!
After being burned twice this morning, I saw your post and said “Are you kidding me?” I didn’t want to judge but knew you were WAY too busy for something like this and couldn’t possibly be THAT wrapped up in the wedding stuff. SOOO I cautiously read…and waited. Thank goodness! CONGRATS on your blogiversary!
Ahh! I can’t believe I fell for it, especially since I just got done reading YHL’s April Fool’s post. I thought you’d be great since you’re so creative. Well done!
Haha – oh man, totally fell for this. Definitely sounded convincing.
I’m bummed! The wedding industry could use more power tools…
Just read it..haha nice one
WOW! That is exciting! Go Sarah!
hhaha! I thought it was real. Boo. Made me laugh :)
