when two became one ...

​My passion for order has always been a driving force in my creativity : sounds almost like an oxymoron, but one day I put the force into learning the basic art of calligraphy. I began with smaller home projects and quickly developed a knack for the art of calligrapahy & with some encouragement from friends FancyPrintsAC was born! 

As life progressed, I became a mom... twice!. I, once again, took to my creative side and became a self-taught sewer! I began creating trendy and fun accessories for both myself & my newbies & my second shop, Newbie Style Love, became a quick success!

The past 2 years I have been managing both shops, and loving every minute. I felt each shop had a unique identity that was apparent to my customers. As time went by and both shops grew into what they are today, I noticed I would have some projects that bled into one another. For example, creating calligraphy signage for a nursery, or sewing bow ties for the cutest little ring bearers. I thought to myself, why not just merge the two shops together?

One of the cardinal rules to owning a small business is to keep the shops voice heard & the shops identity obvious. Some may think meshing a calligraphy & baby boutique together couldn't have much commonality, but in doing so, I feel like I have finally created something completely honest and self-defined. Since the merge the day to day has kept me more sane, and productive. ( Seriously though, my bathrooms have never been so clean.....) Let us put our hands together for..... :: The Basic Suburban! ::
