Welcome to JMC Handmade!
Welcome to my shop!
I have always loved being creative and learned how to sew from a home economics class in junior high school. Shortly after that, I started making patchwork purses and other miscellaneous items in high school. I really discovered how much I loved to sew when I was making things for my classmates. I bravely was taking pants a part and sewing in patchwork designs down the sides of their pants...and getting paid to do it! I have always had a "can-do" attitude and have tackled many projects with just a little research and a will to succeed. I still have and use my sewing machine from high school (over 15 years old at this point!!) and have added a few others to my collection as well!
When my oldest was born in 2013 I immediately became focused on healthier living and more natural products for daily life. This led me down the path of handcrafting my own deodorant, baby creams, sunscreens, bug spray and more. I also picked up crocheting while I was pregnant and although it took me a little while to learn how to read patterns and make presentable projects, I quickly was able to see that there was a need within my circle of friends for natural products and handmade items and decided to open up an Etsy shop to really showcase my work.
While my product line continues to grow and change, my main focus will always be eco-friendly and sustainable products whether it is through crochet, sewing, or hand crafting personal care products.
Thank you for stopping by, please don't hesitate to reach out if there is something custom you would like me to create for you!
