Shop J Kelley

Hi, I’m Jenny, a 30-year-old entrepreneur originally from a small town outside of Bangor, Maine, and the owner of Shop J Kelley (formerly J Kelley Designs).

My business journey began in September 2017 with the very first Cricut machine, which is probably considered a collectible by now! At the time, I was working full-time while attending college, but I quickly discovered how much I loved creating custom pieces for others. What started as a creative side hustle soon grew into something much bigger.

Over the years, I expanded into selling handmade graphic tees at local markets and events, eventually building my own boutique truck. Those experiences allowed me to meet so many incredible customers and supporters who have been part of this journey from the very beginning.

In 2021, I welcomed my first daughter, and she became the inspiration behind pursuing my dream of becoming a full-time business owner. I took the biggest leap of faith of my life by leaving my 8-to-5 job to grow my business while raising her full-time.

In 2022, I opened my first storefront in Lynn Haven and expanded into wholesale, allowing boutiques and small businesses across the country to carry my graphic tee designs.

Today, I'm incredibly grateful to be a stay-at-home mom while continuing to grow my business around this beautiful season of life. As I prepare to welcome baby #3, I'm embracing another exciting chapter by shifting my focus from graphic tees to Baby Bamboo, offering buttery-soft bamboo pajamas and essentials for little ones. While my graphic tee collections are taking a pause for now, my passion for serving families and creating products you'll love has only grown stronger through motherhood.

This journey has been filled with growth, challenges, and countless blessings, and I truly wouldn't be here without the incredible support of customers like you. Every purchase, share, and kind word has helped make this dream possible, allowing me to be home with my babies while doing what I love.

Supporting a small business means more than you know, and I'm so grateful to be part of your community. Thank you for being here through every chapter of this journey. I can't wait to continue growing alongside you and to help bring a little extra comfort and joy to your family's everyday moments.
