Hey there! 👋🏻

It’s been a bit so I figured it was time for an update.

Screen time reports are down, and the garden is in! This season of life has been a busy one, and the feeling of being more present with these guys fills my cup much more than being present on social media 😬.

While this is the busiest end of May/June I think we’ve ever had, school is out for summer!! Which means there will soon be short snippets of time for my creative outlet to shine a bit more than it has these last few months.

But please know, social media *to me*, takes a lot of mental energy that I don’t have much of to share. Maybe if I were Donald Trump, it would be a bit more relevant to my life. Alas, I’m just a small town teacher, wife, and mama trying to grow my garden and raise my babies to be contributing members of society and not v**e in the high school bathroom. 🤷🏻‍♀️

So although I may be a bit absent here, please know, there are still a few pieces up on the site AND I was able to restock at yesterday too (best quality/price polymer clay accessories they offer IMO) . 🥳

My goal this summer is to keep Artisan’s stocked and spend time with my babies (look how fast they’re growing!). I’ll post updates and new pieces here occasionally, but please don’t take offense if you send a message or comment and it takes a bit for a reply. 😘

HAPPY SUMMER! ☀️

I continue to find myself being drawn to those dusty blues and grays, no matter the season. 🤩

April 1 is my goal to get all these + sooo many more listed to my site!

Cheer me on and send all the good vibes so I’m not fooling to all. 🤣😅

Happy Saturday! 🤍

The snow is nearly gone. I’m still not caught up with laundry. The kids are at little youth group, and able to play outside a bit.

Life is slowly starting to feel a little bit more normal after a wild few of months, and I’m beginning to feel a sigh of relief from the holidays, Covid, snow storm, AMI teaching and pinners prep. 😅

Because life has been so crazy, I am going to give myself grace with getting everything listed on my website/Etsy - as it is a very time consuming process.

I’ll be sure to give all the sneaks of what’s to come, and keep you posted on when things will be listed for sale.

Once I feel more balance and rested - I can promise you - it will get done, and I know you won’t be disappointed in the pieces I have to offer. 🤩

Until then, be sure to to swing by or for all of your small biz needs. 🤗

🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍

Here’s a few of my faaaaaaavorite neutrals that will be available when the time comes. The perfect blue, green, yellow, brown. They are..... a chefs kiss. 👩🏻‍🍳👌🏻💋

Some great connections were made at KS, and I’m so incredibly thankful to have been given the opportunity to share my time and space with . 🤍

Now, today, we rest (well - I do - Caiti gets to attend an acrobat competition - so I’ll extra nap for her too 😅).

02/02/2022

People that keep up with social media posts on the daily deserve a high five. 😅

I had big plans to post every day until our conference but we’ve been BUSY around here.

Today - on this fine snow day - I’m a mom, wife, high school art teacher, kindergarten teacher, toddler chaser, chef, prepper, and probably something else that I can’t remember. 🤷🏻‍♀️

So instead of showing a sneak of some earring you can snag this weekend, I figured I’d share what I’ll be rocking at the conference. 😜

Its FINALLY almost time for Pinner’s, I can’t believe it’s already here, and I hope to be able to see your beautiful face there!

An exception to the 1 or 2 rule... stud packs.... for the princess-y princesses in your life.

I can’t wait to share the pretties these will be paired with.

I’m sure you’d also be able to find some pretty cute to pair with them. 😉

13 days till you can find us at KS!

*most of the time* when I’ve got a color going, I keep it to only a couple of the same style earrings for the batch, making the style you choose unique.

My 5 year old princess, says if she was Jasmine, she’d choose the pair on the right, since it’s more princess-y, of course. 🤍

20/01/2022

Positive of being stuck at home? More earring options for KS! 🙌🏻

A firm believer that a good neutral statement earring can pull any outfit together. 😎

The last few months of 2021, 100% did not go as planned for the Bathgate fam. It was, quite literally, one thing after another. So I do apologize for being MIA, but I felt it was important to set family as my #1, and really slow down to enjoy far to many games of Junior Monopoly with the kiddos.

We welcomed Christmas break with open arms, and it has been so good for the soul. After a few days of chaos, this morning, we’ve got one kiddo still snoozing, while the other is finally taking a break from playing to chill in the couch and watch Encanto.

With the slow down I’m finally finding a few minutes to prep pieces to head to later today, for a much needed restock.

While it’s been a bit since I’ve sat down and felt my creative energies working, I have so many fun new pieces in my head, and I can’t wait to see how they play out in real life, which gives me the motivation to get prep in full force. Bring on those late nights (once those kiddos are in bed 😆).

So, cheers to really bad rainy day lighting, a cup of lukewarm coffee, slow mornings, and God’s grace through all the chaos. 🤍

Typically, I lean more towards timeless, versatile pieces that can take you through any time of year. But spooky season is upon us, and I just can’t resist.

A few spooky statement pieces will be headed to this week. 🖤🧡🤍

17/09/2021

Mr. Bathgate and I got married in the HEAT of August with blush and light mint green accents. Had we been married in October, these colors would have taken the cake. 🤩

I can’t wait to share what this most perfect color creates! 🤍

While I know the first official day of fall is still a couple weeks away, I think the weather this morning is giving me permission to shamelessly wear my fav fall hoodie on repeat.

I still can’t get over this yellow - the perfect neutral to take you through this perfect season.🍂

All three of these guys are listed in my shop - find the link in my bio .ee 💛

Last Monday of my summer. 😭

Today we celebrate .bath, aka, my favorite persons, birthday! 🥳

I think the cow print is fitting to celebrate him, as he is the one that convinced me to live out with the cows, and be ok with them being our only neighbors for the rest of our lives.🤣🤷🏻‍♀️🐄

All of these will be live on my site later this week, once I get a couple more high quality pics taken. If you can’t wait any longer, a few are already available at 😉

Today only, enjoy 20% off all current listenings at madebymeganb.com to celebrate a pretty cool dude with code JBBDAY 🤍

Cheers to the last week of summer!

Again today, I did not clean my floors or do our laundry. 😅

The kiddos and I made an drop off and a trip with my sister and her twin boys. Then spent the rest of the day with them pretending to be baby dinosaurs.

Honestly, it was a day that I needed more than I thought. I’m struggling with trying to enjoy these last couple weeks of summer while also feeling bogged down by the never ending everyday to day tasks.

So for anyone else who may be feeling this way, just go have the play date. Drink your coffee slow. And pretend to be the baby dinosaur. Your cup will be more full and the laundry and dirty floors are going no where, trust me. 🤍

Listings are updated and live on my website. 🤍

Stud and hair clip listings will come later next week, along with a few new pieces I’ve been working on. 😉

Orders placed through this week will receive an extra surprise thrown in. 🤩

Shop at madebymeganb.com 🤍

HAPPY MONDAY!

These cutsie little studs were so much fun to make!

My goal is to get what I have remaining listed on my site/Etsy, and to here in the next couple of weeks, before I’m back to work!

I just can’t believe summer is almost over, I’m ready, but not. 😅

Anyone else ready to get back into a routine, but not ready to set that alarm a couple hours earlier!? 😬🙋🏻‍♀️

Another success *and hot* day at . 🤍

So thankful to be able to be apart of such a family centered event!
