Blue Sparrow Events – Vanna Van Oss
A quick note from event extraordinaire Vanna with Blue Sparrow Events
Lately, all I’ve been able to do at night is dream of weddings. Does this happen to anyone else with their job? I feel like I literally plan weddings in my sleep. While I love what I do, I’m starting to think I need to get myself some more hobbies 😅⠀
⠀
Happy Monday evening, my frrannds! I’m Vanna Van Oss (VAN-nuh VAN-aws), founder + principal planner here at Blue Sparrow. I’m an organization queen, a type-A perfectionista, and I’m driven by logistics + aesthetics (fashion, design, interiors, makeup, jewelry – I love the finer details).⠀
⠀
I’d love to hear some of your favorite hobbies for kicking back, unwinding and detaching from work. Give me all the recs you got. What keeps you dreaming peacefully at night?⠀
⠀
Here are some of my current hobbies (In case anyone needs some ideas):⠀
✨ Reading. Right now I’m working on an oldie but a goodie, @valleyofthedollsofficial . ⠀
✨ Cooking. The past few weeks I’ve done @hellofresh because I can’t do anything fancy without a recipe. I love disconnecting from technology and making a mess in the kitchen. And for being a type-a perfectionist, my kitchen looks like a war zone after cooking 🙃⠀
✨ Netflix. Cause duh. I just started watching the second season of @makingamurderer. I choke up every episode because I feel so thankful and grateful for my life I get to live. When I think about it, I’m actually grateful to have the problem of dreaming about weddings every night cause it means I have a job (I love) and I know some people don’t have that. ⠀
✨ Bootcamp. I’m a huge HIIT fanatic. @heatbootcamp keeps me fit and sweating. Working out has become such a source of life and the perfect end to a day of sitting behind a computer answering emails 😛 ⠀
✨Yoga. This is new for me, ya’ll! I felt like I wanted to add a slower, more relaxing form of stress-relief while also working on my mobility (lol makes me feel like a grandma). I’ve been to @blackswanyogaaustin twice in the past week and am in love. So now I’m trying to figure out how I’m going to budget two unlimited studio memberships 🧐
