Blank Space Cleaning: How It All Began
Hey there, friends! My name is Candace Kelly Wolstenholm, but I go by Kelly. I thought I’d take a moment to tell you a little bit about Blank Space Cleaning and myself, too.
I live on the south side of Oklahoma City with my husband and our three kids. We love our little home and all our pets! We have two dogs, Ciara June and Maggie Moo, and three cats, Pawdrey Hepburn, Ru Paw, and Pawmala Furris. Thankfully, we have a Shark Navigator vacuum to keep up with all that fur!
While caring for all the pets, we’re also raising three amazing humans! Our 19-year-old son, Triston, is graduating high school in May. He wants to learn a trade and work with his hands (and we love this!). Then there's Molly May, our 17-year-old daughter. As the only girl, she has appointed herself in charge since she was about three. And finally, our baby, Logan, is 10. We can’t believe he’s grown so much already—and yes, I’m a little sad to see him becoming such a big kid!
I’m lucky enough to still be with my high school sweetheart. Max and I have been married for 21 years. He is my rock, and I definitely couldn’t do this without him! His support and encouragement have truly kept me going. Plus, his business advice is on point!
As for how Blank Space Cleaning came to be—I was at a job that just wasn’t making me happy. I was burned out, exhausted, and mentally not where I wanted to be. So I stepped away and took a month to figure out what else I could do to support myself and my family. I started cleaning with another girl who showed me the basics and how to really clean, and the rest I’ve taught myself through research and experience.
After a while, I went out on my own and launched Blank Space Cleaning, and it’s been success after success! I have learned so much in a year, and I can’t wait to see what the second year of business has in store for me and mine. All I know is that I truly love being a helping hand to those who need it, a luxury for those who want it, and providing fantastic service to both.
