Soppy & Long post alert 🥹🩷
Today marks the 2 year anniversary my gorgeous Grandad gained his angel wings 🪽
For those who know me, know my Grandad was my world and stepped up to be my Dad 💙 everyday is a struggle but this week especially 💔
When Grandad was ill, a couple of months before he passed I made the decision to set up my little business - the best and sometimes worst decision I’ve made 😂
I never quite anticipated how difficult it would be to run a business along working full time and running around like a blue arsed fly (literally that is me as a person!) I do not sit down! Some days I’m on the go from 4:30am until early hours of the next morning and it’s bloody hard work! 🤯
However seeing and receiving all the good feedback on my creations makes it worth while and makes me slightly emotional 🩷 on the days I feel like throwing in the towel when things go wrong (believe me there’s been plenty 😂!) I remember the reason why I do this, and it’s to make my Grandad proud 💙
I know he would be so proud and if I even thought of stopping he would be saying in his stern army voice “You bloody are not!” 😂 this along with all the support all my lovely customers, friends, family and referrals show me keeps me going, and I have you all to thank for where Baked by Claire is today. To have a pretty much fully booked diary until the middle of November says it all 🩷
So thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your support over the past 2 years 🩷 it’s amazing to be part of all your celebrations and here’s to many more years to come 🥂
I’m so gutted Grandad isn’t here to see me where I am today in person, but I know he is with me everyday 💙
In true Grandad style I will be partying the night away, along with my family, at my sisters engagement party this weekend. All messages will be replied to Wednesday 2nd September 🩷 💃🏻🥂💍 🎂
