Ok, so funny story time. I was at our one business just minding my own business, working on some content for my channel, when I thought to myself I want to try and be artsy fartsy, aka creative. I call it artsy fartsy because I’m a giant child. If you didn’t know, we own two businesses, one which I run, and the other one is our auto shop that my fiance is at all day. However, some of his car parts are at the CBD store. You see, he decided that crashing his car was a good idea (total sarcasm, he lost control of the car during a bad storm and crashed into the concrete median). This was many years ago, and he never fixed the car because it wasn’t his daily driver.
Fast forward to when we finally got the shop. He started working on the car he crashed as a side project, but most of the parts are sitting at our CBD store (the front and back bumpers along with the fenders aren’t pictured here) because they got so busy at the shop he needed a spot to put all of the spare parts. This brings me to last week. I decided that since I was wearing a car tshirt, that I’d try to be an instagram model (lol, I know, I hear myself) and try to be all creative with the auto parts in the store. Well, this was the result haha.
Now you may be wondering about the octopus on the wall. Her name is Karen, as per my fiance. At the auto shop, there is a sign store right next door who has done a lot of work for the shop when it comes to signage, and so they’ve become friends. This particular octopus didn’t print properly so the guy asked my fiance if he wanted it since he knows how random my fiance is. Needless to say he took it, and it’s plastered on the wall in the stock area of our store lol.
I figured I could bring some humor into the world today, even at my expense of these super random “creative” photos haha. Let’s move on to the weekly linkup!
