Do you ever have certain chunks of your life where you are just SUPER productive and on top of it all? I feel like this summer (especially the second half) has been this way for me. To outsiders, it just looks like I sit in my chair for super long times without moving though 😅 110% NOT what's really going on! I SWEAR. 🤣 . Here's what has happened this week alone. I have prepped EVERYTHING for the Mersona BootCamp Series that launches this Friday at 3pm EST. I have created my FIRST email newsletter...which I'm still all geeked up about. 🤓 New Merch was created and published today on TeeSpring (see story) and Sparda was repaired too. Business stuff has been taken care of, blog posts have been written (and some updated), videos & photos have been edited and I've cleaned a LOT of things. A LOT of things. It feels good. Pirate Fest is this weekend, so I have to make sure my shell bra and accessories are all looking extra sparkly too. Yaay!! 💖 . Being a Professional Mermaid isn't just about "sitting still and looking pretty." And being a YouTuber isn't just about making videos. Running a business or side hustle of any sort takes hard work, lots of learning and a lot of creativity. Remember that you don't always know what happens behind the scenes. . This post is weird. I can't quite word it right... but you get it. 🙃 Also, I love Sparda! Hehehe! Isn't he cute!?!!!! . Anyways, what are some things you have to do behind the scenes that go unnoticed? Celebrate them below! . #NowImMotivated #MotivatedMermaid #TraverseCityMermaid #ProfessionalMermaid #MermaidTails #MermaidsOfInstagram #MermaidLife #MermaidsOfYouTube #BehindTheScenes #VroomVroom #YouTubeMermaid #YouTubeLife #TakingCareOfBusiness #MermaidPhantom #TheMagicCrafter (at Christmas Cove) https://www.instagram.com/p/B04pSLkhClq/?igshid=4pt7g3g41lui

Today is the day we fly. I haven't been on a plane since I was 9 years old. All I can remember was being the only one excited about the turbulence caused by a thunderstorm. We'll see if it is all still as fun as it was so long ago! 😅 . Only a few hours left and then it is time to say goodbye to the USA for the first time... it will be a good time, I'm sure. 🇺🇸🖤 . Any tips for how to entertain yourself on a 14 hour flight? 🤔 Also... where's the furthest place you've gone from your hometown? 🖤 . #MermaidOnTheMove #TimeToFly #Mermaids #MermaidsOfYoutube #InternationalTravel #MermaidsUnderwater #MermaidsOfInstagram #TheMagicCrafter #MermaidPhantom (at Chicago, Illinois) https://www.instagram.com/the_magic_crafter/p/Bv9XTtcnVqo/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1llx2izvixpm0

My stick. 😝 This is an old picture. I'm missing the lake... and Singapore... and some older times. Buuuutttt.... also looking forward to some new exciting things. 🖤 There will soon be more things on Etsy. I have been avoiding Etsy because I absolutely LOATHE writing descriptions! Silly, I know!! 😂 . I'm trying to push myself to commit to new weekly items. I love to create... which as other creatives know means that stuff piles up. I need to actually GET RID OF the things I make. NOT wear them! 😅🙃 . New item coming to Etsy tomorrow OR this weekend. PLUS!! A new video of the merms in the tank at @asiadiveexpo will be posted tomorrow at 3pm EST. It will be short and sweet with more to come 💜 . Huuugggs to all my introverts, extroverts, ambiverts and everything in between 💜🖤💜 . #mermaidsofyoutube #mermaids #freshwatermermaid #MichiganMermaid #TheMagicCrafter #MermaidPhantom #CreativeMermaid #MermaidShenanigans #mermaidsofinstagram #mermaid #mermaidlife (at Lake Leelanau, Michigan) https://www.instagram.com/the_magic_crafter/p/Bws5NDfnVHi/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=cxtdh92sbjv8

I'm off to go give the old wig one more chance... I rigged it so that it is now tighter fitting. Perhaps it can be saved afterall... we shall see. 😊 . Sparda will NOT be going on today's swim though. He has had his last swim until @asiadiveexpo 🖤 Instead, I will be taking my trusty ol' "Asian Magenta" @finfunmermaid tail... which is SUPER old and needs to be replaced soon! 😅 . Any suggestions for a new fabric mermaid tail? There are so many great ones nowadays! 🧜‍♀️🌊💕 . #mermaidsofyoutube #mermaids #mermaid #mermaidsofinstagram #professionalmermaid #themagiccrafter #mermaidlife #swimlikeamermaid #mernation #mermaidphantom (at Michigan) https://www.instagram.com/the_magic_crafter/p/Bvo8iVHHhOC/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=15rl31frejqgd

FISH BUTT!!! 😜 This mermaid is dreaming of an underwater adventure... but she will settle for flopping around in the snow for now. 💙🧜‍♀️❄ . I've had a lot of days off from work due to the snow storms and ice that we've had here in Northern Michigan. This has given me a lot of time to think (and go mildly crazy) and now I have a few video ideas in my head... but I want to know what videos YOU would like to see on The Magic Crafter, since my channel exists to teach, inspire and entertain YOU. 💖💖💖 . So... what kind of videos would you like me to make more of? Tutorials? Swimming videos? Crafts? Fairy videos? Goth stuff? Something else??? . LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU LIKE!! 🤗💖💕 I will try to form ideas around that! . #mermaidsofyoutube #mermaids #michiganmermaids #mermaidphantom #mermaid #mermaidinthesnow #fishbutt #polarvortex #nomi #youtubersofinstagram #traversecity #tcmermaid #themagiccrafter (at Traverse City, Michigan) https://www.instagram.com/p/BtuQ6Y8ntpv/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1at023n7y4zd5

Mermaids are curious creatures. Always poking at things that better left unpoked. 😅 . . The shipwreck video is now on YouTube! Check out the link in the bio to see it. @the_magic_crafter . . I don't know what else to type here? I am still in fast motion from rushing around to not miss the video's premiere! 😂 . .

Link in the bio for a new underwater mermaid video! 😊🖤🌌 This picture isn't from that video though, it is just one that I felt like posting... since most posts have been "from-a-distance" lately. 😅 . . Getting ready to do a SH'BAM cardio workout. What do you do to stay healthy as a merm? (@lesmillsondemand is epic, by the way. It is one of my true loves 😍) .
