So every since I was a little girl I have loved crafting. I started scrapbooking when I was in middle school, and if anyone went in my bedroom throughout high school then you know that my walls were COVERED in random things making it the world's biggest collage complete with Jesse McCartney posters and whatever emo band I was into that week.

Fast forward 5 years, add a move across the ocean and a hospitality college degree and you've got my life. Well, I started working at an events company in Honolulu, like every aspiring event-preneur, I was looking for experience and guidance. I got just that. The events were expensive and lavish and extremely detailed which lead to me learning quickly and gulping in every bit of knowledge that I could.

Although I moved on from this company due to differences in personalities and goals, I thank this company silently every day because it showed me what I wanted to do with my life. Fast forward about a year after my last official event with this company. A lady posted on a MCBH Facebook page and said they were looking for a cheap event planner/decorator for her daughter's birthday....

I did what any girl would do - I took a screenshot, sent it to my main, and said "I could do this, right?" And like any good, uplifting best friend would say, she said "Yes! You can!" That is basically where MLynn Events started (thanks Tash). I met with the lady, we discussed the event, in which she ended up only needed my help with TONS of decor, setting up, and helping her with a few design choices. I told her I would charge her $100 total because I had never done anything like that before. Now I ended up probably spending 50+ hours on the decorations for that birthday party. The theme was a carnival and I made every single game and decor BY HAND. I cut out carnival letters, hand wrote all of the signs, and I was SO proud of the final results.
