Our Story
About me...
Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Janine and I am the creator of all things Evelyn Grace Lovies and Designs. I am a full time special education teacher, wife to an amazingly supportive husband, and mommy to the most vivacious, fiercely independent, and beautiful little girl.
I am a supporter of small shops, a lover of beautiful handmade and feminine designs (in the mini size), and quite honestly an extreme perfectionist with a Type A personality and a penchant for going crazy if I'm not planning, executing, or creating something spectacular. Seriously... I go a little overboard...
So where did it all begin...
Well, shortly after this spirited little sprite turned a year old; and I do mean shortly (two weeks specifically), she began pulling out her hair.
It wasn't long before our beautiful little girl had pulled out all of the hair from one side of her head. My heart broke for her, however rather then throw a pity party and accept defeat, I began researching and exploring this crazy new world I had been thrust into.
We've tried all sorts of things: specialists, a heavy sensory diet, dolls, etc., etc... I'd very nearly given up when I came upon the wonderful world of lovies. I tried desperately to get my hands on some of my favourites, but unfortunately I was never successful. I finally decided to design my own for my daughter and Evelyn Grace Lovies & Designs was born.
What we're all about...
I am a lover of soft, cuddly, cute, and functional things. I will not sell something that I, myself do not love. I believe that every child needs a little something special to hold onto during stressful and emotional times. My goal with Evelyn Grace Lovies & Designs is to provide our precious minis with something special that they can treasure.
Oh... and if your wondering, my daughter loves her lovies. She has two extra special lovies. The bunny we sell is named "Bunbun" as he is her favourite and she named him herself.
