Hey Ya’ll!
My name is Hannah Schmiegelt (pronounced: Shh-mee-gelt) with a hard G sound. I am a mama to 3 beautiful babies that are 4, 2, and 9 months and married to my lovely husband Will.
My husband has always traveled for work. He typically works 23 days on and 10 days off. It is definitely hard being a single mama while he is away, but it has afforded us a lifestyle I couldn’t dream of otherwise. We have also been able to travel a lot before having kids too. We definitely enjoy getting to do all the things during the week when he is home and not having to do it on the weekends with all the other people LOL.
I am very excited to start this journey of blogging as it is something I have always wanted to do. I hope that it can become an outlet for mom life, diy and woodworking projects, sewing and embroidery, travel….overall basically a creative lifestyle blog.
I have been a dancer/dance teacher my whole life and then a stay at home mom once I had my babies. As much as I loved teaching other people’s children, I wanted to be with mine as much as possible. As for writing, that is something I have secretly wanted to do my whole life! I have always wanted to write a children’s book. Maybe one day!
My other day job and passion besides kids is sewing and embroidery. I started sewing when I was 14 in a home economics class I took in Junior high school. I made a pillow and then the next year I made a purse, haha. That love turned into quilting making baby blankets for all my friends newborns. I don’t quilt very much these days as it is filled with machine embroidery or hand embroidery. I started embroidering during covid when my oldest was about 6 months old with a single needle machine. A few months later I bought a 16 needle machine and never looked back!
Lastly, another passion I discovered as an adult was diy/woodworking! To this day I have built my own kitchen cabinets, renovated 3 bathrooms, built my son’s bed, and countless other projects which I hope to share them all here!
Anyway, I hope you find some inspiration, love, confidence, whatever it is that you need for today on this blog. I am hoping I can find another creative outlet through this blog and writing 🙂
Love,
Hannah
