My daughter has been collecting old CDs from thrift stores because Gen Z thinks the 2000s are "aesthetic" now. I figured we'd just nail a few to the wall, but then my edibles kicked in and I spent four hours arranging 400 CDs like I was solving world peace one reflection at a time.
Came home from work yesterday and she's standing in her doorway just staring. "Mom, you actually went insane and I'm obsessed with it." Then she starts taking pictures for TikTok, talking about how her mom has "unhinged creative vision" and she wants to learn how to do stuff like this.
Two hours later she's showing me her business plan. Wants to start her own custom room decoration service, already ordered supplies from three different crafters on Tedooo app to practice on her friends' rooms first. "You inspired me to think bigger," she said.
I posted the time-lapse in my Tedooo shop and got twelve orders in two days from other parents whose kids want disco walls. She's handling the marketing while I handle the installations.
Never thought getting too high while crafting would turn into a mother-daughter business empire, but here we are. Kid's already talking about expanding into ceiling installations and I'm honestly here for it.
Who knew my stoned creativity would unlock hers too?
