One thing I’ve realized from teaching makeup is that sometimes you really don’t need more makeup…you just need someone to show you what to do with the makeup you already have.

That’s a big part of why I love teaching. I want makeup to feel simple, achievable, and something you actually feel confident doing on your own.

I gave my Masterclass attendees a Makeup Guide to have as a reference, and I wanted to make it available to you too! Whether you weren’t able to attend the class or you just want something quick and easy to reference when doing your makeup, this guide walks you through the steps in a simple, beginner friendly way.

Comment “GUIDE” and I’ll DM you the link to grab yours! 🫶🏾

Fear almost made me miss this moment.

Somewhere along the way, “I just like to bake” turned into “I started a bakery.” 😅

What was once a comfortable hobby is now teaching me to get a little less comfortable, take a chance on myself, and trust where God is taking it.

Still kind of crazy that I can say my first vending event is in the books. But I can’t lie… I’m starting to like what’s on the other side of uncomfortable.

Stay tuned….

Built with purpose. Baked with love.

One year ago, we simply said “yes” to what we believed God was building. We didn’t have every answer, every resource, or every detail figured out… but we had faith, community, and a desire to live more like Christ. And somehow, through every conversation, prayer, Bible study, laugh, testimony, and moment of showing up for one another, The Vine became family. 🌿

To every single person who has been a part of this journey thank you. Thank you for showing up consistently. Thank you for giving your time, your energy, your gifts, your prayers, your service, and your heart. Thank you for saying yes to God’s call over your life and allowing this community to be a place where people can grow, heal, be challenged, and be loved.

This celebration would not have been possible without so many people coming together for one common goal building community rooted in Christ. That’s what The Vine has always been about.

Huge shoutout to:
@buckheadartcompany for opening your doors and allowing us to gather in such an incredible space.

@marcusyrosier for delivering such a powerful, timely, and impactful word.

@iamprettystringz for bringing unmatched energy and absolutely blessing the room.

@stem_petal for the amazing flower arrangements that elevated the space!

@the_blkengineer for the incredible Biscoff Bundt cakes that everybody is STILL talking about.

@1tondric for capturing all the important moments and helping us relive these amazing memories.

Every volunteer, every helper, every person behind the scenes this night was possible because of you.

One year down… and by God’s grace, many more to go. 🌿

The Vine is proof that when people come together with open hearts and a willingness to follow Jesus, something beautiful can grow.

We love y’all deeply. Thank you for growing with us. #TheVineCollective

We had such a great time at the Class of 2005 Reunion. It was a time reconnecting with those I hadn’t seen in over 10 years.
