Catching Up...

I know it has been forever since I've updated this blog. Needless to say, holidays, family, and school have kept me very, very busy! I am now consigned at True Colors in downtown Powell, so if you're looking for some fun home decor, stop by and see what I've got!

In November I was at the Kappa Kraft Fair for my first public sale and the booth was amazing! We were swamped from the moment the fair opened and out of 45 pieces that I brought, I only took home 4 pieces, two of which sold in later weeks. Not too shabby for a first go!

Here are some pictures of Christmas items that I had and some new ones that I've been working on.

Halloween Word Sets

Although October is over and Halloween is gone, I thought I should compile all of the pieces I created. They'll definitely be back for next year!

Meet the Faces Behind MonkeyJazz Creations

MonkeyJazz Creations was born in March 2011. I started doing wood crafts to prevent myself from focusing too much on the loss of our 4-year old daughter the previous Thanksgiving. The grief and loneliness were often crushing and always painful, so I took to crafting in an effort to put my mind at ease. Thankfully, it worked, and I was able to channel all my negative energy into creating beautiful pieces that I knew my daughter would be proud of. As things picked up and I got more involved in it, Wooden It Be Nice (the original name of my creations) became MonkeyJazz Creations, after the two most important things in my life: my children.
