Oh, HEY! - intro from a Canadian alt-style SAHM

in #introduceyourself7 years ago (edited)

Hi all!
I'm brand new to this community, and looking forward to getting started, so thought I would introduce myself!

Who am I?

My name is Megan, I'm 32, and I live on the Canadian west coast. I worked for several years as a hairstylist and makeup artist, but have since become a stay at home mom (Domestic Goddess?). I am an avid baker, and have started a little side business, making custom cakes/cupcakes.

(My daughter's birthday cake this year.)

I'm a bit of an aspiring photographer, though the only things I generally find the time to photograph are my cakes and my kids! Mom life. lol

I love art, and spent much of my early life sketching and painting. After putting it down for far too long, I've decided to make it a priority again, and have started getting back into watercolors. This is the most recent painting I've completed.

I also have a love of alternative, rockabilly, and vintage style, and would love to find other members with similar tastes.

Why am I here?

My goal here is to finally get my blog up and running. I've been tossing around the idea for quite some time, and now feel motivated to get started! It's my hope that having such an active community to post in will help keep me accountable, and push me to post on the regular.
Things I will be posting include all those things that are most important to me: parenting, baking, art, vintage fashion, beauty, etc.

I am so excited to be a part of this eclectic community! And of course, appreciate any helpful hints, upvotes, and follows.

Thanks!

Megan
