Little did I know, my path would take a turn from the classroom to the craft room! In 2007, I embarked on an 8-year journey as a teacher, even earning my Master's degree and National Board Certification in special education. Teaching seemed like my forever plan.
Fast forward to 2012. While juggling motherhood (my firstborn was just 1!) and teaching, I stumbled into making custom home decor and eventually created an Etsy store that rose to the top 1% of Etsy stores!
By 2016, with a second son in tow, the decision was made. I took a leap of faith, leaving teaching to be a full-time mom and entrepreneur. Faith did indeed pull through! The business flourished, and in 2018, my husband joined me, leaving his custom home-building business to create a work-from-home dream team – all while raising our boys together.
The teacher in me couldn't be completely silenced, though! In 2018, I began hosting DIY workshops in our garage. The idea resonated beyond my local friends, with people asking, "Can you send these projects to us?" And voila! Project Home DIY was born in 2019.
It's amazing how life unfolds! Now, I get to share my creativity with you through Project Home DIY.
