donated hair

When I decided to cut off my hair a few weeks ago I knew it would be an emotional day. I started growing my hair so many years ago I am not even sure how many years it had really been growing. I got intentional about growing it out around the time I got married.

Seems to be constant change and excitement over here these days.

First up, I have started a new project. Well, it is new to me. I am now working with my brother at his business Visualingual. About 7 years ago he and his former partner started a business making seed bombs. Seed bombs are little balls of dirt that contain seeds, you toss them into spaces that need a little beauty and wait for the flowers to bloom. It took off and now that is his full-time gig. Late last year he ended up with the business by himself and now I am jumping in to help where I can. We have grand plans down the road to add products and try out some new ideas. Nothing solid yet, but I will keep you posted as we go. Right now I am most excited about the beneficial bug seed bombs that help attract the best bugs to your yard. You can follow along and hear interesting stories of our childhood on the Visualingual blog, including family dinners.
