Chrisell and Evelyn, embarked on a journey that would defy the odds and inspire everyone who crossed their path. Chrisell, a creative entrepreneur from sunny San Diego, and Evelyn, a visionary with roots in Japan, had never met in person, yet destiny had a unique plan in store for them. Their connection unfolded on the vibrant canvas of Instagram. Chrisell had been diligently building her home-based business, DIY Selly, while Evelyn poured her heart and soul into her own venture, Events with Eve, specializing in party decor and delightful desserts. Despite the miles that separated them, their shared passion for artistry and entrepreneurship brought them together.

One fateful day, Chrisell found herself in Japan, and Evelyn, who had been following her creative journey on Instagram, couldn't resist reaching out. She suggested a charming café that she thought Chrisell would adore. Little did they know that this simple message would be the spark that ignited their remarkable partnership.
