Q: Custom and personalized orders

I would love to try to help you create something special. Please know special projects can take 1-8 weeks to create, depending on what you are seeking.

Q: Gift wrapping and packaging

Let me custom wrap your item with gorgeous (or handsome) paper and add ribbons, bows, custom gift tag, or other embellishments. Gifts can be mailed to your recipient with a matching gift tag and message. I charge a small service fee per wrapped box ($2.00), which helps me pay for the box, materials, and extra postage. If your ENTIRE ORDER is headed to ONE RECIPIENT, shipping will be calculated as shown in the listing. For multiple locations, there will be multiple shipping fees. For example, if you purchase three pairs of earrings and would like each to go to a different address, I must charge shipping for EACH package.

Q: Sending a gift - can I know what it looks like wrapped?

Sure! I will take a photo of YOUR EXACT item before and after it is wrapped, if you ask me to WITH your order.

I love these little charms. We are talking about the armor of God in Sunday school. The kids are liking the topic a lot. They don't know when we finish they will get a set of these charms on a key ring that they can wear if they want to. I can't wait to see their faces. 🥰

Faith Jewelry & Cards, Motivational & Fairy Tale Gifts

This was part of my booth at an Artisan & Gift Fair It is so wonderful to meet my customers in person! (10/28/18)
I love to find goofy things wherever I go. In a way, my shop is everywhere!
This is a multi media piece I loved creating.
The beach. Ahhhhh... my favorite place. Here. I write for hours, draw, or just sit still. (Well, try to; busy brain!)

Got Dreams?

I call myself COLLEGEDREAMINKID because I have BIG dreams. Like each of us, I am on a journey to use my strengths to beat my challenges. I do that through art and imagination. For years, pictures were my words. Now, words paint strong pictures when I read. I read and draw all the time.

My CDK work lets me use creativity to make things that make people happy. I use my earnings to take one college class at a time.

What I want to be "when I grow up" is still not in stone. I have worked really hard to earn my Associates Degree and now go to a University. I am an English major. I have ideas about the future, but I am just not sure how to get there yet. I do know that words, art and faith will come together somehow. I think I want to work with stories and writing - maybe even some kind of video/film production. In addition, I know I am supposed to work for God in some way.

When I am home, I design ideas and make lots and lots of items. Lately, my mom and I work together a lot. While I am at school, she is the shopkeeper and will be working with you most of the time. I will still write to customers, work when I go home and create ideas in my mind.

Thank you for visiting me. I hope you enjoy your time in my shop.

From,
Noah

Owner, Creator, Dreamer

This is me reading at Mr. Lincoln's statue when I was 9. It was a HUGE dream of mine to be able to do that. In my imagination, I was reading right next to him! That was a really long time ago, but I still love reading and am an English major.
Mom (Kim)

Customer Service, Driver, All-around Helper

<--This is Mom. She was a teacher, but can't work now. She translates my alien words into English, helps w/shopkeeping and helps me fill orders. She helps me imagine creations and find supplies for designs. She is a big cheerleader for me.
Dad (Matt)

Puts Up With Me, Driver, Marketer

<-----This is Dad. He drives me across continents for cool supplies. He grumbles in craft stores. He humbugs when I take over every surface in the house. Secretly, he's proud, though. (And happy when I rescue him & with a last-minute card for mom!)
Talladega

Bouncy Cheerful Friend, Muncher Of Supplies I Leave Near The Floor

This is Talladega. Tallie is a sweet, gentle, rescue from the ASPCA. She's the happiest, bounciest dog I ever met. Tallie is always happy and makes me feel sunnier when there is a dark day. I wish she could stayat school with me.

My dad's company helped me make the metal charms.
Print Shop for my Textiles

United States

Etsy doesn't have a real option for what they do for me, so I have to pick "everything" even though they expertly print my designs on textiles. Designs are DTG, not DTF! The graphic designs go right on the shirt, which is a better process than printing to film and then pressing on the shirt.

More production partners

Several Etsians, Canva, Kittl and a big of AI Gemini

Apex, NC

I began by sketching what I wanted to create before collaborating with JoyfulDayDesigns.Then I used AI to help me smooth out lines, etc. From there, the background filler from Canva came in. Then I took some bits from art I have licensed, then back to color pencils, then to Ai for the final format.
