JaxnBlvd-Then And Now

Christmas 2012 is where it all began when I made my very first sign as a Christmas present for my sister. I kept designing and creating after that and slowly built a following. My very first post on Instagram was of a custom that a friend of mine asked me to make. In writing this post, I had to dig pretty deep into my Instagram account to find old pictures. It was fun looking through old posts and seeing how much this little business of mine has grown and changed!

When I first started JaxnBlvd, it was just me (and my sisters helping when they could) painting on my living room floor. I was pregnant with my youngest and when my belly got too big, I moved the painting to my kitchen table. After I had my daughter, I decided to hire my first employee and the painting continued in my kitchen until there was an abundance of glitter and paint that was constantly stuck to my poor baby’s knees when she tried to crawl around. I had a shed built in my backyard and JaxnBlvd continued to grow from there. The shed was only about 8ft x 10ft but once I added AC and a TV for Netflix, it turned into a fun and functional workspace. The signs were all painted in the shed and we used my garage to cut all the wood, frame, ship, and store signs. The business was growing and now that we had a dedicated workspace, I was able to hire a few more employees.

 

 

JaxnBlvd continued to grow and we eventually outgrew the shed in my backyard. I had 6 employees at this point and finding space for everyone to work was becoming an issue. My garage was busting at the seams and the storage unit I had to rent to store extra signs was filled to the brim as well. The time had come to set up a brick and mortar and we opened our doors on November 13, 2015. It was so exciting that my business had expanded so much, but also a little terrifying at the same time!

 

 

With the expansion of our space we were able to have a dedicated place for our customers to shop and we also opened up space to support other local small businesses and carry their merchandise as well. We began hosting DIY Classes now that we had the room and they quickly became a customer favorite. Over time we started selling home decor and in the past year clothing, shoes, and jewelry. It’s been fun to branch out and offer a variety to our customers.

In 2015 Hobby Lobby approached me wanting to use my designs to sell in their store. Ummmmm, yes!!! Working with Hobby Lobby has been such a great experience from the very beginning and it helped open up doors to work with other companies like, TJ Maxx, Marshall’s, Home Goods, Walmart, and Wayfair. It’s so fun to see your hard work come to life in different ways, and I still get a bit giddy anytime I see my work sitting on a store shelf.

I am constantly thinking of new design ideas and projects and this new year will bring some fun things I have been working on - the biggest being a new location!!! The location we are in right now is 30 minutes away from my home and from where most of my employees live. We've all been making the commute for the past 3 years and we’re ready for a shorter one. Our new shop will be in a great location and I cant wait to share more details soon!

 

 

This has been an exciting, crazy, tiring, stressful, and amazing experience so far and I had no idea when I made my very first sign that it would turn into all this! I have definitely learned a lot and as you can tell, our signs and our photography have come a long way too. I’m so grateful for everything that has transpired so far and I’m looking forward to much more!!

  • I’ve always been careful with my cryptocurrency, but even the most cautious investors can fall victim to cyber threats. My nightmare began when a ransomware attack locked me out of my $500,000 Bitcoin wallet. The hackers demanded payment in exchange for access, but I refused to negotiate with criminals. Desperate and running out of options, I started researching legitimate crypto recovery services, something I never thought I’d need.During my search, I came across an article about crypto recovery services that highlighted Pro Wizard Gilbert Recovery as an industry leader. While I was skeptical at first, I was also desperate. Every hour that passed felt like my funds were slipping further away. Finally, I decided to take a chance and reached out to their team.
    From the very first call, I knew I was dealing with professionals. The team at Pro Wizard Gilbert Recovery listened patiently to my situation and reassured me that I wasn’t alone,ransomware attacks were becoming increasingly common, and they had successfully helped many people recover their stolen crypto. Their confidence gave me hope.Once I provided the necessary details about my wallet and the attack, their forensic specialists got to work. Unlike the hackers, who demanded money without guarantees, Pro Wizard Gilbert Recovery provided clear expectations, a transparent process, and constant updates. Their team used advanced blockchain analysis tools to trace the compromised transactions and locate vulnerabilities that could be exploited to regain access.The waiting period was nerve-wracking, but they delivered on every promise. Within a matter of days, I received the news I had been praying for—my $500,000 had been fully restored. I could barely believe it. My funds were back, and the hackers had failed.Beyond the recovery itself, Pro Wizard Gilbert Recovery also educated me on preventing future attacks. They advised me on strengthening my wallet security, using cold storage, and recognizing suspicious links or downloads that could contain malware. Their insight and expertise ensured that I wouldn’t be caught off guard again.What started as a moment of complete despair ended with an incredible victory—all thanks to Pro Wizard Gilbert Recovery. If you ever find yourself in a situation where you think your crypto is gone for good, don’t lose hope. They are the real deal, and they proved that even after a ransomware attack, your assets can still be saved.

  • All you need is to hire an expert to help you accomplish that. If there’s any need to spy on your partner’s phone. From my experience I lacked evidence to confront my husband on my suspicion on his infidelity, until I came across ETHICALAHCKERS which many commend him of assisting them in their spying mission. So I contacted him and he provided me with access into his phone to view all text messages, call logs, WhatsApp messages and even her location. This evidence helped me move him off my life . I recommend you consult ETHICALHACKERS009 @ gmail.com OR CALL/TEXT ‪+1(716) 318-5536 or whatsapp +14106350697 if you need access to your partner’s phone or any kind of hacking, they carry out all kinds of hacking job

They kept stealing from me over and over just because i wanted to withdraw and it became worst till i could not take it anymore. I had to sought for assistance and i was able to get in touch with recoveryhacker101@gmailcom on google and they made sure the company refunded me back without having to go through lawyers or hackers.

But that wasn’t the end; I tried to contact hackers and recovery expert but was unsuccessful till I came across jamesmckaywizard a Recovery Hacker, who after 7 to 8 Hours helped me retrieve my Bitcoin.
