Iāve been thinking about this home cafĆ© idea for Adrianās birthday for months āš¤
I actually designed most of the creative stuff way ahead of time⦠the logo, stickers, menus, signs, labels⦠all of it. But for some reason, I always do this thing where I get the idea early and then wait until the very last minute to actually start preparing š
Weāve already hosted 2 Christmas parties and a 4th of July party, and every single time I tell myself Iāll prepare early⦠yet somehow, I still end up waiting until the last minute š
Between work, deadlines, everyday life, and trying to have some kind of social life, I ended up doing almost everything the week of his birthday. Printing signs, putting stickers on cups, making the magnets, cutting things out, organizing supplies⦠basically turning our house into a tiny print shop for a few days š
But honestly, once I started putting everything together, I remembered why I love doing it so much. I love the creative side of it all⦠making the tiny cafĆ© details, matching everything together, and creating little signs that people probably only look at for two seconds š
Also⦠Iām really not good at filming BTS content because once Iām in ācreative mode,ā I completely forget to record anything. So hereās the little behind-the-scenes footage I managed to get while designing, printing, crafting, and setting everything up āāØ
