It's been a long time!

Posted by

Hello everyone! It feels so good to be back! I have been gone for some time now (a few years). I put my business on ice and even though I had it running in the background it definitely wasn't my top priority. I'm finally getting things sorted out and it's time to kick things into high gear! I'm so excited to do my first blog post after all this time!!!! I'm happy to have my business social medias back up and running and up to speed! Definitely looking forward to what the future holds not only for my business, but also for the family Madebytrande and Love n Luxe has been growing across the internet! On this site you can see I've decided to merge both Madebytrande and Love n Luxe as one. With Madebytrande still being the business name and Love n Luxe being the woman behind the business. A huge hug and a sincere thank you to all of you who supports me and my business!
