OUR STORY

Hey there! I'm Elise, founder of From Juniper With Love ! Indiana is my birthplace and my heart-place. I come from a tribe of tireless self-starters, so it was only a matter of time before I caught the bug. Back in 2015, I kicked off my entrepreneurial journey right from the cozy confines of my spare bedroom. At the time, I was working as a medical sales rep, using my earnings to fuel my first business venture. From pop-ups to online sales, I soon traded my makeshift office for a bona fide brick-and-mortar space, and voila - my boutique was born!

Fast forward 8 years, I found myself pregnant with my fourth bundle of joy, following a heartbreaking miscarriage. It was time to hit the pause button on retail so I handed the store off to two of my sisters. Having dabbled in permanent jewelry for about six months in my store, I decided to keep it as a sideline while I reveled in the joys of momhood. But momming full-time was a short-lived affair, and before I knew it, I was back at the drawing board - or rather, dining table - crafting jewelry while the kids napped and hosting pop-up jewelry events! 

From humble beginnings at my dining table, my team and I have graduated to my backyard studio. Creativity strikes when it wants, and I'm always ready - mostly for my own enjoyment, but hey, your wardrobe thanks me too! Off-duty, you'll find me hunting for treasures at thrift stores and estate sales. I'm all about iced coffee and rock margaritas. Tacos and cheese dip? Yes, please! As for my sisters, they're always on speed dial for a quick brainstorming session. I'm also a travel enthusiast – there's nothing like exploring new places to spark self-discovery.
