JS Logo


I finished my logo.  It is a collage of all the things I love about elephants, surrounding my initials in the middle.  I also added Harriet and Susanna to the post below, so be sure to check it out!  Amy very graciously and professionally took all my pictures.  I love them.  They turned out great, so I will be selling prints at the boutique as well as the cute little custom made statues below!  I just have one more day (before the boutique)!  I am excited.

Heber's Fab Idea!

You are going to love this.  Heber thought I needed a name for my booth at the boutique--to state the theme without spelling it all out....

He also thought of a name for my booth.   I absolutely love it.  It is...

An Elephant Never Regrets!

Don't you just love it.  I mean it is soooo perfect!  And it says it all....

Thanks Heber. Love Jenni

Spring Into Summer Boutique! June 28th 10-4 pm

I am currently preparing myself to participate in my first boutique!  I  have been working pretty hard to get 5 Elee Statues completed as ideas for custom orders.  I plan on selling them for $250 each, and I may give a discount at the boutique.  I am also going to make up a bunch of prints to sell,  and I will even sell some cards.  I have a lot of work to do to finish everything up, but I am excited.  Here are pictures of the finished elephants:  



Margaret: The original.  She loves to dance.  Being a rugged, chubby elephant has never stopped her from being beautiful.  She loves to be admired.  She admires. She loves her friends and most of all, her family.  









Penelope: She is a sweet-heart.  She won the crown of Miss Africa despite terrible odds.  Miss Lioness was the shoe-in with her sly, sleek ways, but Penelope has heart.  Her tender soul out-shined all.










Truman:  You are what you pretend.  Fake it till you make it. Truman loves the great outdoors, but he doesn't have to be there to enjoy himself.  Truman's imagination takes him places no one else can see.  And though it is pretend, to him and the birds, he is true to himself and what he creates. 









Susanna: Don't you cry for her.  She is a hefty elephant who practically breaks the tight rope every time she walks on it, but if it breaks, she will tie up a new one.  She doesn't let obstacles stop her from doing what she loves.










Harriet: The gymnast.  Harriet can stand on her front foot without supports. Her gymnastics teacher told her that she had never seen anyone her size do much in gymnastics (let alone stand up on her front leg), but that was before Harriet was in her class.  Harriet does it, and makes it look easy. 

June Illustrations




These are the illustrations for the June Story.  It is about 2 worms.  It was kinda hard to make them cute, but I think it worked.  Heber helped me out a bit with ideas.  The gem is the pearl, and the other bug is a June bug.
