Rise Up Designs

You ever look around at all the progress you’ve made — and still feel like you're trying to keep up with your own dreams? Yeah. Me too. This week, I hit some huge milestones: ✨ My biggest sales month yet ✨ Over 350 followers on Instagram ✨ Month 2 as a Star Seller on Etsy ✨ Launched my mobile craft party website 🎉 And while I am proud (like, squeal-out-loud proud), I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t also… a little overwhelmed. Because sometimes, right behind the “Wow, I’m doing it!” feeling is a sneaky little voice that says: “Can you really keep this up?” “Is this too much?” “What if the next thing flops?” Here’s the thing I’m learning: Doubt doesn’t mean you’re doing it wrong. It just means you’re doing something that matters. 💛 I think it’s okay — healthy even — to pause and admit, “Hey, this is a lot.” Because chasing your dreams while working a full-time job, nurturing your creativity, showing up for your family, and managing all the things? That’s not easy....

This past Saturday, I officially launched something I’ve been dreaming about for a while: my first mobile crafting party —aka:  Wrap & Rise Craft Parties ! 🥳🖌️✨ I packed up tumblers, keychains, bookmarks, UVDTF wraps, supplies, and snacks 🍷🧀, and brought the whole creative experience  to  a group of amazing women… and y’all—it was  magic .  💫 💕 Here’s What Made It So Special: It was chill. 😌 It was fun. 🎶 It was wine, snacks, music, and laughter. 🍷🍓🎉 But most of all—it was  creative.  🎨✨ Everyone got to: Pick their own tumbler wrap  🥤 Choose their keychain design  🔑 Make a custom bookmark  📖 ...and bring their vision to life. The best part? They  loved  that it was hands-on. I kept hearing things like: “This was so fun - oh, this one is sooooo you!” “I didn’t know I was this creative!” “I love that we got to make something ourselves.” That - right there? That’s why I wanted to do this in the first place. 💖 ?...
