Addicted to creating!!✨

NEW JOB- where do I even start for those of y’all that do follow me you know that I have been posting Michaels craft store content for over a year. I worked there for a total of five years and as much as I love the job, the managers ruined it for me. It got to a point where I had to make a decision from my mental health to be healthier. And I’m sure as hell glad I did.💓

I got a new job as a Freshie decorator for a boutique. This is the best job that I’ve had in such a long time. I love the people I work with, and I truly love creating every single day. Even though I officially smell like a mix between a fall pumpkin and a Christmas cookie, I’m not mad at it. 😝

I want to start posting more Freshies that I decorate every week. How would y’all feel about that? :)

2025/9/6 Edited to

Transitioning from a large craft store to a boutique setting has been a refreshing experience. Unlike my previous job at Michaels, where management challenges impacted my mental health, working as a Freshie decorator allows me to focus on what I truly love: creating unique, personalized products every day. This new role nurtures my passion while supporting a healthier work atmosphere—something that’s so important for anyone whose creativity depends on mental well-being. The boutique environment is cozy and inspiring, and I get to collaborate with people who share similar artistic interests. This positive community makes every workday enjoyable and fulfilling. As I decorate these Freshies, I blend seasonal scents and themes like fall pumpkins and Christmas cookies, which bring a memorable sensory experience not only for me but also for customers shopping at the boutique. These handmade, decorative items are perfect for gifting or adding charm to one’s home, reflecting a truly personal touch. For those interested in DIY crafts, boutique decor, or simply fresh and affordable handmade products, following my weekly posts will offer fresh inspiration and ideas. Moreover, since this job is less toxic and more supportive than previous ones, it highlights the importance of prioritizing mental health when career decisions arise. I’m also exploring ways to make these Freshie products available for online shoppers, so more people can enjoy the unique creativity that comes from small boutiques. If you love handcrafted decor and want to see how to style or gift these pieces, stay tuned for detailed posts and behind-the-scenes looks at the creation process. Switching career paths for mental wellness and creative freedom shows how vital it is to find work that aligns with personal values and health. Hopefully, by sharing my journey and creations, others feeling stuck at unhealthy jobs might feel inspired to seek opportunities that fuel both their passion and happiness.
