I Miss When the Internet Felt Like a Place

Which is weird because I’m quite literally on the internet as we speak...

The internet nowadays is full of AI, influencers, OnlyFans models, ads, algorithms, and everyone trying to sell you something. And listen, I’m only 24. I grew up with the internet. I’m not sitting here pretending I remember some ancient world before Wi-Fi existed. But I DO remember when the internet felt completely different.

I miss when Facebook was a website. Like, you sat down at the family computer, logged onto Facebook and played OG FarmVille for an embarrassing amount of time.

And PURPLE PLACE???

Please tell me somebody else remembers Purble Place because that game had me in a CHOKEHOLD as a child. The little cake game??? I was basically a pastry chef at 8 years old.

Too Many Threads to Hold 🪡

Okay, so… second blog post EVER!! ♡

I’m going to try to stay consistent with posting. Maybe twice a week? Maybe even more? Who knows. We’re figuring this out as we go.

And I feel like there’s no better way to start my second post than by admitting that I am currently struggling to balance everything on my plate.

Between my full-time 5:30–2 job, Mykis Crafts, sewing, markets, my social life, and approximately 47 projects floating around in my head at any given moment… I am overwhelmed.

Work has been feeling especially unfulfilling lately. If money were no object, I think I would genuinely quit tomorrow and start working toward opening my dream craft studio.

A little space filled with fabric, sewing machines, craft supplies, classes, people making things together… basically everything I actually love.

Unfortunately, dream craft studios cost very real money. 😂 And considering we’re currently trying to buy a house, opening one is definitely not in the budget right now.

So for now, I clock in at 5:30 AM and dream about fabric.

dear diary... i made a blog ♡

 Well... apparently owning a craft business, buying entirely too much fabric, starting sewing projects at questionable hours, and turning everything I touch pink wasn't enough. So naturally, I made a blog.

A year ago, I started this business. I started out making tumblers and wristlets and selling them at markets, and then one day I decided, you know what? I have a sewing machine. I might as well try to learn how to sew.

And everything changed.
