✨ Believing In Myself ✨
I’m still behind so here’s day 8 - the best decision I’ve made so far? Believing in myself
I wanted to try my hand at making clothes years before I actually did, from my early teens, but every time I thought about it talked myself down and convinced myself I wouldn’t be good enough
Fast forward almost 15 years, I have a toddler who is outgrowing high street brands, I’ve immersed myself in the small shop world as a customer and I still don’t have the confidence to give it a go myself
But, the most wonderful lady I’ve met through insta tells me I can do it, she believes in me ( I couldn’t have done this without you!), my daughter tells me she loves me and that she loves the first, rather questionable items I make her, and my husband tells encourages me to keep going
I sew, I learn, I fall in love and I finally start to believe in myself, and in a moment of self-belief, madness and confidence my wonderful little business is born
Believing in myself isn’t a natural or easy thing for me (or many others) to do, but look at what we can achieve when we do!
My B (in the photo) is one of the main reasons I even tried to make clothes, and here she is wearing a sneak peek of a print arriving for summer
