Our Story
Having been a business owner in the past, we are no strangers to running a business and we understand the dedication that it takes. Our daughter, Krystal, who has witnessed firsthand our creativity and attention to detail, asked her dad if he would make her some photography props as she is a photographer in our area. He did so and because there was local demand for our products, we thought it would be something that we could possibly market nationally. My husband and I both have an artistic mind and enjoy creating things, and with Krystal's input, it has turned out to be a successful venture for us. The name New Beginnings came about because after working 35 years employed with the same company, my husband incurred an on the job injury and lost his job. Thus, this business is a "new beginning" for us.
Our items are given a special finish by hand that consists of several layers and steps. Please expect imperfections in this finish as this is a labor intensive process. No two will be exact. The differences in finish and color are part of the charm of our hand-made items. Bumps, nicks and cracks are normal and expected and are characteristics of our quality hand-made products.
Our photography props are designed and constructed with much love and attention to detail. The safety of your newborns and children is our number one priority. With safety in mind, all of our props are both glued and screwed. They are extremely solid and durable. Our props are cut and assembled in a shed in our back yard and painted in our basement. My husband and I are the only employees. We do our best to get each prop manufactured and shipped to you within a 1-2 week timeframe.
We hope you are as excited about the props that you purchase from us as we are in designing and constructing them for you!!
