MEET YOUR MAKER
Hi Vamps!
Thank you for stopping by 1864 threads, my name is Sujey (sue-HEY) and I'm the face behind 1864! The shop officially opened its Etsy doors September 2024 after it's big sister shop, The Mouse Boutique had already been opened since 2016.
Truth is, I struggle with severe anxiety and a number of other mental health issues, and I wanted to find something that can help take my mind off things, something to escape my thoughts, something that would fuel my passion and become an outlet or getaway from my own mind. I have my career in the corporate world where I have a passion for helping others, but I wanted something for myself, something that was mine. I've always loved DIY crafts and I'm pretty creative, so this was a perfect project. Once I saw how much I enjoyed making the designs, (and that I was actually pretty good at it), it became a hobby, then a passion, and eventually a small business.
My shop resides in sunny Miami, FL, and has 3 furry mascots, Louie, Jack, and Ruby, who like to make me take breaks from working on orders to give them all my attention (which I LOVE doing).
xoxo,
Sujey
