A place where creativity is a blessing.
Jessica McIver - Owner
A place where creativity is a blessing and a wife of noble character resides.
I have always been creative and I'm always working on another new project. I've often thought about having my own business for my creative outlet (it's way more fun to make things for other people instead of yourself) and now I'm finally doing it!
I've been sewing and making bags and purses for about 20 years or so and I've never made the same thing twice. I enjoy looking at a piece - or bundle - of fabric and being inspired to create something new from it. I'm always on the look out for new and inventive ideas that challenge me and my creative mind. I've made costumes for plays, Renaissance clothing, prom and wedding dresses, my kids' clothes, blankets, quilts, baby gifts, you name it.
The story behind the name: My Proverbs 31
In the Bible, Proverbs 31:10-31 poetically describes in detail “The Woman of Noble Character.” This woman is in high demand and is worth a great deal to her husband, family, and community. She is not idle and takes pleasure in working hard night and day managing her household - making sure her family is fed and clothed – reaching out to the needy - making linen garments and selling them for profit. She is thrifty and spends her money wisely and also knows that hard work is more important than charm and beauty. She fears the Lord, but does not fear the future because she is secure in His love for her. The Proverbs 31 Woman is strong, dignified, and wise, but most of all her work does not go unnoticed by her husband, her children, or her community. In fact, they honor her and bless her.
This etsy shop is a way that I can be all of the things that I am called to be, while also serving my God and my family. I hope that you enjoy the things you see in my shop - and always know that when you buy something from me, you are getting a prayer for you as well.
Blessings,
Jessica
