I have been sick with the rona for 2 weeks now, I can barely move without feeling dizzy or nauseous, I’ve had a migraine that won’t stop for about a week and a half, I finally lost taste and smell, which if we are being honest was my worst fear because I love me some food 😭 the kids got sick too, but are feeling better than I am, which also makes it hard because I can’t chase after the little one. I have a few super late signs that need to be framed, I haven’t had a chance to finish them yet, I apologize, and the last of the valentines rounds will be ready tonight for me to drop off / ship tomorrow. Other than that, I’m just dreaming of spring and summer, when the sun sets at 9pm and I have more hours to get stuff done.

These are online now, and there’s a great deal if you buy in bulk 😉

I’ll also have these available at our first market of the year - in mason, Michigan

02/02/2022

I pushed myself to the limit yesterday, and made all the candles + melts for February market (you can find them 2 min down the road at the ) and dropped them off right after 11pm 👏🏼
This months scents are upscale, clean and uplifting - to get you ready for spring! (They’ll be available online after this market!) here’s the scent list..
Butt naked - apple, pear, cherry
Coconut sunset - coconut, amber, cream
Dream on - lavender, vanilla
Elderflower bloom - elderflower, bergamot
Lime basil mandarin - lime, basil, mandarin
Warm vanilla sugar - vanilla, sandalwood, coconut
If you’re stopping by this weekend, you may notice a name change 😉 it’s not super official yet as I’m still trying to switch over some things, but eventually the name change will happen to this page, website and more ❤️
I’m feeling slightly better, I’m going to try to get some orders knocked out today between the snow day fun!

❤️ dropping off all the new spring scents tonight / stay tuned for pictures and scents!

I’m still feeling really crappy and cannot get my fever below 101, so I’ll be dropping late late, to make sure I don’t see anyone there doing final touches on the shops 😩

01/31/2022

I woke up at 330am in excruciating pain, my whole body was on fire, I was freezing cold, so thirsty and had the worst migraine ever 😩 I’m slightly better now, but very dizzy and still have a lingering headache. Local orders will be dropped tomorrow - I’m trying to squeeze in all the things before the snow hits Wednesday. I picked up candle glasses yesterday, and had to beg my supplier to pick up oil today so I can knock out all these candles tonight 👏🏼 January was just a trial month, my 2022 starts tomorrow 😂

01/29/2022

All 👏🏼 the 👏🏼 heart 👏🏼 rounds 👏🏼 were 👏🏼 shipped 👏🏼 yesterday! I also shipped a few signs and all the magnets. I hate promising deadlines for when things will ship, because I never know how a launch will go - it will either flop and I’ll get 2 orders, or it will blow up and I’ll get 38 😂 you guys blew me away with the custom heart initials 😭 there’s a few local ones still hanging out here, I’ll get them to you before this weekend is up 👏🏼
I noticed there’s a few orders from the beginning of January that were shipped, but have been lost - I’ll figure that out Monday when the post office is open, and replace them if I need to, and get those reshipped mid week as well, if they aren’t at the post office with a label issue or something 🥴
Tomorrow I’m picking up candle glasses from Ohio - and will spend the better part of this week making candles for to drop off by Wednesday night. I was supposed to get them last week and only half my order was in, so now I’m back to being last minute (I thrive in chaos)
I designed a few new things the other day, and updated a few of your favorites, I’ll hopefully have those ready by the end of the week, but the cold ass weather is making it hard for me to want to get out to the barn 😂

✨sale✨
Limited time only, custom initial valentines round, on sale for $22 instead of $30 - multiple color options available, and these will all ship by Friday 🎉
I found a bunch of rounds that were cut from over the holiday, that I never had time to get finished 😂 I spent the morning cleaning out my workspace and organizing it to better fit my needs! Im wrapping up more orders today throughout the day, and will be out in the freezing barn framing signs from last week / trying to stay productive over here 🙂

845pm on a Saturday, and I’m in bed 😂
I just wanted to take a minute to say thank you, because I don’t say it enough - this is my only income, and it comes with so much stress and zero security. I don’t get paid every other Friday, I don’t get paid time off, bills still come each and every month and you guys always show up and buy items I make, and it truly makes my heart so full 😭 because of this weekends sales, I was able to pay my electric bill, phone bill and order candle supplies. It doesn’t seem like much, but that’s HUGE to be able to keep going.
This year, I’m working on cutting my production times 🤞🏼, getting more organized, stocking stores on time and pushing through no matter how exhausted I am. If you’re new here, you’ll soon find out I have a toddler who is into everything, and I can’t afford daycare because it’s ridiculously expensive (though yes, I do agree people who care for children do not get paid enough) so sometimes I struggle with deadlines and balancing my schedule.
We are all a work in progress, and my commitment to myself is to keep trying new ways to get stuff done around here (even if your kid never sleeps 😂)
Anyways, thank you again for supporting all the things around this crazy business of mine, you guys are amazing and make me feel so grateful ❤️

Got a request to make these, so here they are! Free shipping! 9 pack of magnets to express how you feel 😂 www.motorcitycreations.com

01/20/2022

6 new items just dropped on the site! - they’re al on the main page ✨ I have a few new ideas I’m working on, I really hope to get them finished soon because I’m obsessed! Go get em friends! I only have a few open orders right now so the production times shouldn’t be super long, as they normally are 🥴
I think I finally got a handle on how to speed things up over here, it just includes lots of late nights 😂👏🏼

01/19/2022

Yay! I finally finished a few things to drop off to both and / 4 more signs to frame in and I’ll be dropping them all off tomorrow - there’s a few Valentine’s Day signs, a few standing hearts and a few everyday signs 👏🏼
I’ll be putting the everyday items online tomorrow at some point 🤞🏼 I dropped off finished orders at the post office yesterday, I have a few more signs to finish and then those will be shipped too (hoping for early next week), I’m trying to navigate how to get so much done by myself, with limited time 🥴 the good thing about me, is I always find a way!

01/13/2022

wrapping up orders today, while Hudson cries all day 😂 can Mercury retrograde affect kids? Asking for myself.
These are going to and after they’re framed, I’m gonna try to get them online, but time is running out before Valentine’s Day 🙃 so, maybe next year.
There’s a few local drop offs that I’m going to squeeze in tomorrow too 👏🏼
But for now, Huddy and I are going to watch the good dinosaur, for the 8th time today 🦕

✨✨ready to ship✨✨
your best bet is to order more than one to save on shipping, because they have to be shipped in a box so they don’t break, shipping is probably around $7 for one, but also around $7 for 2,3 and 4 - there’s nothing I can do about that 🙃
I lied when I said I was shipping candles out the other day, those are definitely getting boxed up tonight though, shopify wasn’t letting me print shipping labels, and I didn’t have it in me to copy/paste from pirate ship, sorry about that!
I sat down today for about 3 hours figuring out candles for next month, my original glasses are back in stock with the rose gold lids, and I’m working on a current scent list for when I pick them up 👏🏼 I also organized my workspace today, and I’m putting the finishing details on the future of MCC 😉
