I wanted something fun to decorate for the Fourth I wanted something fun to decorate for the Fourth of July, but instead of grabbing another mass-produced sign from a big box store, I came across a local mama who hand-paints custom banners from her home.

The moment I saw this one, I knew it was coming home with me.

I love that every purchase like this supports someone’s dream, helps a local family, and adds something unique to our home that you won’t find on every store shelf.

It’s one of my favorite parts of living here—there are so many talented people creating incredible things from their homes. Sometimes you just have to know where to look.

That’s exactly why I love sharing these hidden gems. The more we support our local makers, the stronger our community becomes. 💛

👇 Comment “INSIDER” if you want to discover more hidden gems, local events, and small businesses in Queen Creek & San Tan Valley before everyone else.

Tonight’s Town of San Tan Valley Community Festiva Tonight’s Town of San Tan Valley Community Festival was such a great reminder of that.

Local vendors, food trucks, neighbors catching up, kids running around, and a drone show to end the night... it wasn’t about having the biggest attractions. It was about being together.

One of my favorite parts of living here is discovering events like this that bring our community together. They’re the kind of nights that turn into core memories without having to fight traffic, pay for parking, or spend a fortune.

If you missed it this year, don’t worry—I’ll keep sharing local events, hidden gems, and things to do so you never have to wonder what’s happening around town.

I kept seeing people say, “No one is hiring.” So I kept seeing people say, “No one is hiring.”

So instead of guessing, I started calling.

I picked up the phone and called 30 businesses off Gantzel & Ironwood, asking one simple question:

“Are you hiring?”

Some said no.
Some said they weren’t sure.
But 7 businesses told me they are hiring right now, and I included everything they shared in this post.

I’m not stopping there, either.

I’m putting together a FREE list of 50+ businesses currently hiring in Queen Creek & San Tan Valley—including pay (when available), age requirements, hours, and how to apply.

It’s still a work in progress because I’m continuing to call businesses every day, but if you’d like a copy as soon as it’s finished...

👇 Comment “JOBS” and I’ll send it to you for free.

And if you know of a local business that’s hiring, tag them below or send me a message so I can add them to the guide. Let’s help connect our community with local opportunities. 💛
