Hello, Blue Laundry Co!
Hello! My name is Alix Hamilton and I am the owner of Blue Laundry Co! Back in 2022 my family moved back to Kentucky with our three young children. I knew I wasn’t ready to go back to a full time job that would take me outside of the house. I wanted to find a side hustle that would help to bring in extra income but would also allow me to stay at home with my children. I looked on Pinterest and saw the idea of doing laundry at home. This sparked my interest because I would always joke with my mom that I wanted to own a laundry mat. Laundry never bothered me but I did know that it was time consuming and not everyone’s favorite chore.
The idea of Blue Laundry Co just flooded to me. It really felt like a God thing! I had never envisioned myself as an entrepreneur, but this business just made so much sense to me!
Owensboro is not where I am from but it has always felt like a second home to me. I was excited to start a business here because I knew that Owensboro cherished their small business community. It took almost a year for me to actually bring my business to the public. I was nervous about putting myself out there. After telling my friend about my idea she asked me if I would be interested in doing her laundry. This gave me the confidence to share the Blue Laundry Co Facebook page!
After that I have truly felt the love and support from my loved ones and the community! I love being apart of the small business community and can’t wait to continue to grow this small business of mine!
