Welcome to my shop! I’m a 20 year old college student spreading love one pinecone at a time
My name is Jenna, and I am 19 years old. I am a sophomore in college majoring in industrial design. In 2014 I saw my first pinecone pendant. It took me 2 years to finally find the company who made them. Third eye had completely inspired me, so I looked into how to make them. In 2017 I was 17 years old and was applying for college scholarships. The competition consisted of five different mediums of art to form a portfolio. This was the little push I needed to make pinecone pendants. My partner in crime, Bill taught me how to use all the wood working machines and materials. We created our first batch of pendants and my friends loved them and insisted to buy them from me. Sadly I did not win the scholarship but I did create my own small business. Thus, helping me more than a scholarship! Now, I am able to assist in paying my tuition and now sadly medical bills. Because of my injury I had quit college lacrosse and am now planning to spend more time on my little Michigan business because that is what makes me happiest. I want to thank everyone who has supported me. (Especially Bill) I’ve learned so much about running a business, creating new ideas, how to be careful with collaborations, and to make sure not to infringe on patents! It has been such a wonderful year and I have grown so much because of all of the people I have met along the way. Thank you all so much, all of you are the reason why I do what I do.
