My Blogging Journey + What's Next For My Blog
I’m sharing my blogging journey & my plans for the future of my blog!
This November will mark 5 years of On The Creek Blog!
This blog originally began as a way to document our home renovation journey. You can read the full story here, but the short of it is that we bought a foreclosure in serious need of repair & we completely renovated it from top to bottom. It was a wild time for sure!
As we settled into our home, the blog began to evolve. For the past 3 years, we've planted a garden on our land. Gardening was never something I really thought of myself doing, but I actually enjoy it. Our garden situation has also evolved through the years. I'm actually planning our largest garden ever this year.
While I don’t share a lot of recipes anymore, I’m still active in the kitchen. I like to try new recipes & I’m slowly building up a collection of the recipes I use all the time.
Over the past year or so, I’ve also really gotten into furniture makeovers. My husband helps me a lot with the assembly of my projects & I really think we’ve really found our groove when it comes to furniture repair. Seeing things go from trash to treasure has really been something I love.
Home decor is a newer interest. Finding my unique style has been a challenge. Also, trying to fit random things together in an area has proven to be a difficult task for me!
As far as this blog goes, I feel like it’s been a bit hit or miss lately. While I have all of these interests, it’s been a challenge to mesh them all together.
With the spread of the Coronavirus throughout the world & the stay at home orders in place, I’ve really had time to think about my interests & what I want to share with the world. In these uncertain times, I really want to focus on getting back to the basics & make the best of this time at home. Now that our disposable income isn’t guaranteed, I want to focus on budget friendly things I can do at home. Staying safe during this time is a priority.
So…all that to say that this blog is going to be evolving a bit. Now that I have a lot of time on my hands, I want to focus on merging my interests into a blog I love. I want to share attainable budget friendly projects that we all can do. I also want to make my older posts more accessible. I want to make this blog something I’m truly proud of.
I’m looking forward to continuing to share my journey with you. Stay safe out there & I’ll talk to you soon!
