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 used to think crypto recovery was a myth until I became a victim of a scam that wiped out my entire portfolio through a fake investment scheme. Every attempt to recover my funds was met with more fees and empty promises. For two exhausting weeks, I got nowhere.
    That changed when I reached out to Morphohack Cyber Team, a trusted and legitimate crypto recovery service recommended by a friend who had successfully recovered his digital assets through them. Their expertise and professionalism made all the difference.

    I’m sharing this to let other scam victims know: it’s not over until you get your funds back. Your crypto wallet and digital assets can still be recovered.
    Don’t wait, contact Morphohack Cyber Service today. ( Morphohack@cyberservices. com)

  • HOW TO RECOVER LOST OR STOLEN CRYPTOCURRENCY/BYTEPHANTOM CYBER RECOVERY: My name is Patricia, and like many others, I once believed that losing cryptocurrency to scammers meant it was gone forever. I had read countless stories about people being tricked out of their life savings, and I always thought I was too careful to fall into that trap. Unfortunately, in late 2022, I found myself living that nightmare—and it nearly broke me. I had been investing in crypto since 2019. Over the years, I built a modest but growing portfolio through patience, research, and smart trading. But one careless interaction changed everything. I was lured into a seemingly legitimate trading platform by someone I met through a cryptocurrency discussion group. The website looked real. The team seemed authentic. They even had fake reviews and verifiable-looking documentation. After a few weeks of small test withdrawals, I decided to commit a large sum—over $95,000 worth of Ethereum and Bitcoin. The moment I tried to withdraw the full balance, the platform locked me out. Customer support vanished. Emails bounced back. I watched my wallet get emptied into addresses I didn’t recognize, and I was left with nothing. It was one of the darkest moments of my life. I felt sick to my stomach knowing I had fallen for a scam. Friends and family tried to be supportive, but I could see the disbelief in their eyes. I filed reports with the authorities and my local cybercrime unit, but I was told the chances of recovering crypto were slim to none. I almost gave up. Then I found BytePhantom Cyber Recovery. I came across them while reading a blog on blockchain forensics and fraud recovery. At first, I was hesitant. After everything I had gone through, the last thing I wanted was to be taken advantage of again. But something about BytePhantom stood out—the way they explained their services, the transparency in their process, and the real-life testimonials I saw from people in similar situations. I reached out through their website, and within 24 hours, I received a response from one of their recovery specialists. The communication was clear and professional from the start. They asked for detailed information about my transactions, wallet addresses, and the fraudulent platform I used. They didn’t promise a miracle. Instead, they gave me a realistic overview of what could be done and how they would approach it using advanced blockchain tracing tools. I gave them the go-ahead—and that was the best decision I made. Over the next few weeks, BytePhantom worked tirelessly. They uncovered transaction paths I didn’t even know existed and tracked my stolen crypto across multiple addresses, mixing services, and decentralized platforms. The team provided regular updates, showed me the movement of my funds, and even identified the scammer’s network. Then came the moment I never thought would happen: they successfully recovered approximately 82% of my stolen cryptocurrency and securely transferred it to a newly created cold wallet under my control. I couldn’t believe my eyes. After months of hopelessness, my assets were back—and it felt like a weight had finally been lifted off my chest. What truly set BytePhantom apart was their integrity, transparency, and expertise. They didn’t just help me recover my funds—they helped me regain confidence in the crypto world. They educated me on better wallet security, provided tools to monitor suspicious activity, and made sure I was prepared going forward. To anyone out there who’s lost crypto and thinks it’s over—it’s not. BytePhantom Cyber Recovery has the tools, knowledge, and heart to fight for what’s yours. I’m living proof that recovery is possible, and I will always be grateful to the team that helped me reclaim not only my crypto, but also my peace of mind.

  • FUNDS RETRIEVER ENGINEER – THE MOST SUCCESSFUL CRYPTO RECOVERY SERVICE

    After landing my first job I was proud to receive my performance bonus and excited to take my first step into investing. I wanted to use that money wisely. When a friend shared a link to a trading app that looked polished and professional I didn’t hesitate. The platform had a sleek interface glowing reviews and even what appeared to be celebrity endorsements. It felt safe and credible. I downloaded the app signed up and bought 2 BTC through their system. At first everything ran smoothly. The dashboard showed promising returns, the support team responded quickly and everything seemed legitimate. I felt confident that I had made a smart decision. But when I tried to withdraw my funds things quickly changed. I was told I needed to deposit more money to verify my identity and unlock the withdrawal process. The requests kept escalating. Then just like that the app disappeared. The website was offline emails bounced back and the support chat was gone. My heart sank. I realized I had been scammed and my savings were gone. I was devastated and embarrassed. I didn’t know who to trust or where to go. That’s when my boyfriend found FUNDS RETRIEVER ENGINEER online and encouraged me to contact them. FUNDS RETRIEVER ENGINEER listened to my story without judgment and assured me that I wasn’t alone. They quickly identified the scam, traced the app’s backend to a server associated with other fraud operations, and filed urgent takedown notices. Within days they managed to recover my full 2 BTC. I could hardly believe it. I had prepared myself to accept the loss, but they gave me back not just my money they gave me hope and peace of mind. In Crypto space there are people out there who genuinely want to help. If you’ve fallen victim to a crypto scam, don’t give up. FUNDS RETRIEVER ENGINEER helped me reclaim what I thought was lost forever. Thanks to them I’ve been given a second chance to rebuild my future this time much wiser. Thank you FUNDS RETRIEVER ENGINEER.

  • I fell victim to a highly sophisticated crypto phishing scam that completely drained my Bitcoin wallet. The experience was devastating I had invested years of savings, and in just a few moments, everything was gone. At first, I thought there was no hope of recovery, especially since most people warned me that crypto losses were irreversible. But then I discovered Astraweb, and reaching out to them was the best decision I made. From the first consultation, they were professional, transparent, and clear about the recovery process. Their team used advanced blockchain forensic tools to track the movement of my stolen funds across multiple anonymous wallets and mixing services. To my surprise, Astraweb managed to trace and recover a significant portion of my lost Bitcoin within days. They kept me updated at every stage, provided me with evidence of progress, and handled my case with absolute confidentiality. Thanks to Astraweb, I recovered what I had assumed was lost forever. If you’ve been scammed or had your crypto stolen, I strongly recommend contacting them their expertise is unmatched in the recovery space.
