Welcome back and Happy Memorial Day! Hope you’re able to enjoy a long weekend and take time to remember those who give us the freedom to relax!

Week three of our introductory series on Nothing Past Nine features my sister, Jenny. She designs and contributes to the products you see on our Etsy site, as well as providing feedback and valuable advice on the business side of the shop.

Jenny has been a huge inspiration to me throughout my life. As the little sister, I wanted to be just like her, and she has never steered me wrong! Our day jobs are in the same industry, we’ve worked in the same venues, and have very similar tastes and hobbies.

Our family is spread out across the country, and as Jenny and her husband Dave live in Tennessee, they are our closest relatives. It is wonderful to have them within driving distance, and we take advantage of seeing them when we can. My furry niece Bear, has been the best addition to their family and always adds a dose of excitement to our visits!

Jenny’s talents at the sewing machine expand Nothing Past Nine’s ability to offer a wider range of products, while her personal style provides a bright splash of color and pattern – usually stripes! It is a joy to work with my sister in this way, and I hope you’ll introduce yourself to her!

This is the third post in our Get To Know Us series. If you missed either of the first two posts in this eight-part series, you can find them both HERE. Thanks for taking the time to get to know us!
