I'm slowly taking on custom resin orders. I know it can be challenging so I'm taking my time. I don't advertise the service at the moment. However, if someone ask and I can take the task on, I'm doing it🤗. It takes about two weeks to complete everything, payment is due in advance and I'll share the project status with the customer along the way. I'm a one woman show☺️. Building a solid foundation takes time and I'm learning the importance of bookkeeping, policies and m

I'm not a pro interviewer, I'm just me. Check out my interview with Ms.Taylor from The Business Vision and Development Center. #OneStepAtATime #DontRushTheProcess #Community #TetheredCordAwareness #DIY #ArtsandCrafts #MadeInDC

I started the application process last year and didn’t finish it. I was introduced to “Made In DC” through a T&A I attended at the Anacostia Arts Center (great place for entrepreneurs by the way💯). I was also not familiar with the District of Columbia Small and Local Business Development (DSLBD) office. DSLBD is also a great resource for small businesses. I’m officially on the ”Made In DC” team! This means I have a lot of work to do and I’m looking forward to it. We’re

I have to remind myself to practice patience. I need to finish some business related things and navigate the DC government requirements so I can create the website for “I’m Soy Addicted Candles” within the next couple of months🤦🏽‍♀️. It’s never a dull moment and it gets frustrating sometimes. However, I step away (like I‘m doing now) to determine the best approach. #ProgressNotPerfection #OnStepAtATime #DontRushTheProcess

Another great class is complete. I instructed another candle making class at the Anacostia Arts Center on the 28th of November. It’s great meeting new people and learning more about how I can make the class better each time. I‘m so grateful to be able to begin the journey to accomplishing my dreams! One step at a time! #FullOfGratitude #DontRushTheProcess #ILoveThis #DoItYourself

Picture mail is here! This is from a private birthday class I instructed a few weeks ago & it was truly fun. The burn is nice & clean plus I was told the hot throw of this “Pineapple Sage” candle is great too! I am working on setting up some candle making workshops soon! Stay Tuned!!! #GoodCleanFun #DoItYourself #CandleMaking #DontRushTheProcess

My first official (paid) candle making class was absolutely awesome! I couldn’t have asked for a better group of enthusiastic candle makers. I’m so thankful and grateful that I was apart of the “Art All Night“ event. The Anacostia Arts Center is beautiful and I can’t wait to go back to support the businesses there. We need more places like this is our community! 🤎🤎#WhereCreativeMindsMeet #SoThankful #Ward7BornandRaised #Ward8HasGems #ADiamondInTheRough #PracticeMakesPe

I’m so excited about the opportunity to partner with DPR to provide candle-making fun classes! Their “Friday Night Hype” series is targeted at teenagers and young adults. It‘s summertime and a lot is going on in our city! Being a part of this series is so important to me. The first class was my first big class (about 13 people) and we had so much fun! I tried to have an age restriction😂. Didn’t happen🤷🏽‍♀️. When the “10-year-old “ stopped by and told me “I’m a teenag

Soon I will introduce “I’m Soy Addicted Candles” to you all. The intent behind “The Beautiful Brown Rainbow LLC” is to educate and share information regarding various ”Do-It-Yourself” projects. I don’t want the candles to take over my intention. However, making homemade candles will be apart of the process. #StayTuned #PatienceIsKey #SomeThingsTakeTime #DontRushTheProcess 🤎

Who said it was difficult to get smooth tops with Soy 464 wax? Well, these are all smooth & I didn’t need a heat gun. Patience is key when making homemade soy candles. Yes, each batch of soy wax is different and this is where the testing comes in. These are “Peach Nectar” and “Smoke and Odor Eliminator” candles. It smell awesome in here! #DontRushTheProcess #PourItUp #NoFilterNeeded
