  Have a craft in mind  
  but don't have the time?  

Meet my friend Julie

Headshot_Julianne Olivo.jpg

I'm a maker, hobby sewist, planner and all-around handywoman based in the Southwest suburbs of Chicago. I'm that person loved ones text and friends recommend when they have a project in mind but just can't find the time. Or perhaps don't have the skills and tools to finish the job.

​​

I'm bringing my passion for crafts, custom gifting and carving time to create joy to my friends and their friends and their friends, which is likely how you found yourself here.

​

I'm glad you stopped by and hope you know I'm here to make your life easier. Connect with me here to turn an idea into stunning creations, gifts and experiences without the stress. And if you're not ready to create together yet, feel free to drop a note and introduce yourself. I'd still love to meet you! 

Gifting

I know how hard it can be to find the perfect gift. Let me take out the guess work with personalized gifts, care packages and more for every occasion. I can even wrap your holiday gifts for you.

Weddings

Want your wedding to have a personalized touch? Let me help with ring boxes, guest books, signage and everything in between so you can focus on other details. My card box rental is a favorite!

Sourcing

I love the thrill of the hunt, whether you're looking for a vintage barrister cabinet or an on-budget Amazon list with themed party decor. What's on your Pinterest boards just waiting to come to life?

More

From custom mouse ears and T-shirt quilts to embroidering scrubs and wood burning a face on a cutting board, there's no shortage of custom projects I've tackled for friends. Let's chat about your craft.

Thanks for submitting!
