Guys, 2017 was both the best and the worst. I’m sure I’m not the only one who feels this way…
While it was a rough year in the world, whether you look at environmental impacts, politics or world peace, I had a lucky year personally. This year, Club Crafted celebrated its anniversary and began selling products. In case you missed it, I left my full time job to pursue my freelancing creative business full-time, and although it’s crazy and stressful and extremely difficult, it’s completely worth it. I’d say 2017 is definitely one for the record books, and I’m still amazed how quickly it passed. It’s true what they say – time goes by faster the older you get. Ugh, what is it going to be like in 10 years?!
Before we ring in the new year, I wanted to look back at 2017 with the top posts here on Club Crafted. If there’s one thing I see from these top posts, it’s that you guys love DIYs the most! DIY projects and lifestyle posts were very popular, so I’m looking forward to many, many more in 2018. Geez it feels weird to think it’s almost 2018. Now, let’s start the countdown!
