The Boss
Curator, marketing director,
sole worker, crafting genuis.
Born in 1986, Tessa was bred to be a neurotic crafting addict. The focus on her education was on art, drama, and music. An unfortunate turn in circumstances in 2014 left her with no source of income other than her crafting. Since then, she has transformed the business into what it is now.
The Wise Guy
Second pair of eyes.
Commonly referred to as "hunny".
Born in 1985, Adam is "too busy" and "uninterested" in participating in the making and selling of the products at Happy. He has a demanding day job, so we can't hold his unwillingness against him.
He's a great cheerleader; a constant uplifting, kind, generous, soul. We love him with all our heart.
The Helper
Likes to see what's being done. Seems to think he works here.
Nuke, the rescue cat, liked to help (read: ruin) everything he touched, so the studio door was closed 99% of the time. However, he was good for a lap warmer when on the computer.
He enjoyed slapping the dog and meowing (read: whining).
The Tax Guy
Allegedly does the taxes. Usually found sleeping on the job.
Coco the Dachshund was born in 2007.
She enjoys sleeping. All day, evening, and night. She also eats and poops and pees sometimes in between, but mostly she enjoys sleeping. She tells The Wise Guy and me that she's doing her taxes. She's lying.
MEET THE STAFF
Hello, hello, hello! My name is Tessa and I'm a crafting addict.
When you're on your lunch break at work, you're heading to Subway for a $5.00 footlong, I'm sitting in my living room, making another wrap bracelet. While you're at the mall for a new pair of shoes, I'm at Hobby Lobby, scouring the clearance sections. While you're going out to eat for dinner, I'm stuffing a peanut butter & jelly sammich in my mouth as I make some T-shirts. When you're sleeping, I'm editing pictures for the next listing on my online store.
I created this site because I saw an advertisement for Wix and it looked super easy and the pages were slick. It was the perfect solution to a problem I was having.
Wait, let me back up.
My crafting has gotten to the point where not only do I like some of the stuff I make, but others like some of the stuff I make! One of the things I do is alter a deck of cards into a gift called "52 Reasons I Love You" for customers on a website called Etsy (a place for people [like me!] to sell their handmade goods). These decks have become so customized that I needed help outside the limited Etsy listing options to explain to customers their options. Etsy allows for two customized options. I offer nine customized options. Obviously I needed a way to explain the other seven options.
I decided to take this opportunity and promote all of my products and also to promote myself as an artist!

HAS

Let me know if you need something done! I crave custom orders. If you take a look around the site, you should be able to get a fairly good idea of what I have done in the past.
Much love,
T
