I make everything I sell. I do it because I love doing it. Creating and selling my creations is my passion.
Each hat and scarf is hand knit by me. No two are going to be exactly alike even when I use the same yarn. I make pom poms by hand and, again, no two will be exactly alike. I try to make things as closely as I can to resemble the photos I share but also to find the right buttons on the funky hats that will compliment the flower.
I make my own eyeglass cases. I initially used a pattern but redesigned the pattern to fit what I felt was a good and useful eyeglass case. Since I use my template to cut the material the cases may not exactly resemble the photos on Etsy. I try to get as close as I can. Again, like with my knit items each case is its own and no two are exactly alike.
I hope that you enjoy the items you purchase from me.
I have another Etsy shop where I sell my photographs. I reopened it on April 18th and am building up the photos I am selling there. My other Etsy shop is www.ajoyfulcreationphoto.etsy.com You can find all of my photos on ajoyfulcreation1.com. If you see any there you can find the number of the photo by hovering over it with your mouse and then contact me if you wish it to be added to my Etsy shop or have a question about it. I am also on Fine Art America under the name Joy Patzner.

5 out of 5 starsThis hat is super cute, warm and soft. The shipping was extra fast. It came beautifully packed, even included a printed sheet with washing instructions. I think I’ll order another hat as a gift for my mother. Thanks!

5 out of 5 starsI love my hat and have gotten many complements from my walking group. One knitting friend is going to try to make one herself! I would buy this in another color if available.

5 out of 5 starsLOVE Joy’s scarves! They’re beautiful. She’s so kind and sweet to work with too. I ordered one of her colorful scarves and loved it for myself but wanted to custom order a shorter scarf for my mom, who is quite petite. I figured I would wait awhile for the custom scarves to be made but they arrived in a week! I was impressed at how quickly my original (non-custom) scarf arrived too. I love both lengths - the original and the custom ones (10 inches shorter). The scarves are absolutely beautiful!

My name is Joy and so a Joyful Creation fits me and what I make.
I am knitting things that people want but also constantly trying out new designs. My funky hats got started a little over a year ago and are selling very well both on Etsy and in my craft shows.
I added on the sewing because not everyone likes scarves and during the warmer months, they usually don't sell. My eyeglass and sunglasses cases are becoming more and more popular as I come up with fun fabric.
This year I have decided that I also love photography. I started out by accident and now find that when I am outside my eyes are constantly searching for things to photograph. This is a new venture for me and so I am still learning and growing. I had my photos on Etsy but decided to move them to my own site: Ajoyfulcreation1 dot com. or at my other Etsy shop www.ajoyfulcreationphoto.Etsy.com
I do quite a few craft faires at the end of the year each year. This allows me to see what people like and helps me to develop my products based on what I learn.

Joy
Owner, I Design And Then Make My Own Creations.
I live in the beautiful Northern California town of Nevada City. I love it here. I have the best of both worlds. I live in the mountains but I am only a few hours drive from the ocean and the beautiful city of San Francisco.
Shop policies
My scarves are about 74 inches long and, 4 to 6 inches wide. If you need a smaller scarf (for a child) or a bit larger of a scarf, please let me know in comments. The yarn is mostly acrylic so the items can be machine washed and dried. I will make note if there is any wool in the yarn.
Eyeglass cases are sewn with interfacing (for support) and felt lining (to protect your glasses.) The cases fit regular sized eyeglasses and larger sized sunglasses (not at the same time.)
Accepted payment methods
Returns and exchanges
I gladly accept cancellations
I don't accept returns or exchanges
Returns and exchange details
I try to make sure that I do not send an item to you that has any problems with it. I have ripped out rows of knitting if I find a mistake and I do not send items with obvious mistakes in them. If you discover a serious mistake in something I have sent you, please contact me and let me know.
Payment
Shipping
I allow a few days for my knit items because I make them before I ship them unless I have them in inventory.
If it is absolutely necessary to send an item back to me (please contact me first) and the reason is because of something I did wrong, I will refund your money after I receive the item back (in the same condition you received it.) If the problem is something I can fix, I will refund the shipping. Once I have it back and I can fix the problem I will mail it back to you at my expense.
