Hello and welcome! I’m Holly Chayes

I help makers, thinkers, builders, operators, creators, etc. implement solid containers for creative chaos, and functional systems for sustainable momentum, all in aid of making a life or business you love. 

Right now I’m working with people and businesses in a couple capacities… 

Business

Business coaching and consulting for small businesses ready to dig into the practicalities of what’s next.

When you’ve graduated from mindset-only to mindset+ 

When you’ve built something that functions but doesn’t flow yet.

When you’ve outgrown and overrun what used to work.

Whatever you’re stuck on, we can get you moving to what’s next.

Individual

Life and clothing magic for individuals who thought they would be more prepared for this moment.

Personal or professional.

Once in a lifetime or every day.

A surprise or something you’ve been working towards for years.

Whatever this moment is, we can get you ready for it.

jeans!!! – The Self-Made Wardrobe Week 33

The Self-Made Wardrobe is a project where I only wear garments I’ve made.
It’s a year long experiment in getting dressed without clothing labels –
it’s a year about noticing patterns, trying things, and observing what happens.

I think it’s going to take me awhile before I stop putting exclamation points after jeans(!!!) They’re done! Finished! Worn!

I took some super quick photos before I left the apartment on Thursday (in keeping my “projects aren’t done until they’ve been photographed” experiment), and I’m going to try and get better photos this weekend, then I’ll write up a proper post. For now though – jeans!

The fit is… a little quirky – and so far each day I’ve worn them, I’ve spent the day mucking out a costume shop – ah well.

They’re jeans!
