Since starting MadeMonarchs the four of us have been given many opportunities and chances to do some pretty cool stuff.

I have a lot of free time on my hands now. Free time should be used productively often. When you’re productive, you feel accomplished and that’s always good. Even from the smallest of tasks. For me…..that would be nails. For a minute, I gave up on my art form. My nails were looking bland out…
